Yup. Subways before avenues, every time. I hadn't gotten into the why, but had definitely noticed the effect. Also, some of the 'hood policies are completely useless. Carpooling incentive doesn't do enough to be worth the money, I recall.
Subways don't really go "before" avenues, because one must plan for the use of avenues from the beginning: Since avenues consume TWO groundtiles, you cannot easily retrofit them into an existing grid once the grid has already been laid, you must plan your grid to incorporate them in advance.

What is your opinion of airports and seaports? I never have a good spot for an airport. Seaports seem like they create more pollution than they are worth.

Airports are necessary to unlock commercial caps in a commercial city. Seaports improve industry in industrial cities, serving as valid "Exit" for industrial produce. As for pollution...it's an industrial city! The pollution is surely already horrendous. Why do you even care?

Zazazu:
I have put seaports by the high-tech industrials before. I usually allow those in a residential city, just no ID or IM. I've not really used the airports before, but then I typically just have the one major residential with one small, one medium bordering commercial and commercial smattered in the residential. The rest are industrial/power with one large agricultural.

I started up a new region last night and have a population of only 604, but I'm making over $5k a month in the residential and I don't know what in the others.

Sairsadel:
For those of you still playing Sim City 4, are you using Service Pack 3?

Thanks

witch:
Yes.

Zazazu:
XP SP3? Yes. Why, are you having issues? For the month or so I was SecuROM infected, it was blocking SC4 from running. Even from a noCD crack. I run SC4 with Rush Hour and the community Network Addon Module.
