Can you have more than 12 different industries?

Post by steve » Sat Nov 17, 2007 10:02 am

I have been trying to play a few different user created maps and have noticed on one of them that I have cows but can't make a stock yard as there isn't a icon to make one. The make new industry pop up box is fully populated with 12 different industries but stock yard isn't available to build but if they come pre build in a city they are there. Is this a limitation of the program or is there a way around it?

At this time, no. Lowell worked on it for quite a while and did re-find a way to control which ones to keep on the list. This can be used to set certain Industries in certain Cities and not let the player add them where he wants.
Just hope that Firaxis/2K looks our way and helps us with some of these problems :D .....oh, hope that pigs fly also....... :P

Thanks

I've had a bit of a fiddle around and changed the xml whitsit to 12 industries and fiddled with a few other things to make the scenario a bit more playable. I might have a go at doing my own or modding a few of the multi-player maps for a laugh

Changing an existing map is always approved around here. Test it and post it. Doing different things in the same area still makes for something to play wait.
