But I may be wrong and it will be fun to fiddle my way through it. So far, I’ve found that the spacing of small control units across the top of the map combined with additional small space (2x2) Omega utilities outweigh the F/P/H buildings that would be required. So the tradeoff is between Omega RZs with high service requirements and the F/P/H required to cover the non-Maxis areas.įinally, the end game is to remove shops and factories but they too require F/P/H coverage. However, Omega RZs require 5 service units compared to an Epic building’s 1 service unit. Max population will always require at least the Omega Storage, Bank, Research Center and 1 Lab in order to purchase Omega utilities. But the tradeoff is between adding F/P/H to cover the Maxis gaps or to add Omega infrastructure (Control Nets, Drone Bases, Storage, Bank, Research Center and Labs). ![]() I chose to fill the Maxis space with Epics and the non-Maxis space with Omegas. Placed most efficiently, they leave a strip of 5 spaces at the top of the map and 25 spaces uncovered going east-west (where west is the GTHQ and south is the Beach). But they only cover about 60% of the map. The 4 Maxis Manors allow you to remove all fire/police/health buildings. The last task is to remove underperforming specializations (say, one of the 2x2 50-60% casino specializations gives less than a 15K pop boost-removing it and replacing with an Omega or Epic will provide a slim pop boost-and so on). If I can ever make that many PKs, I should have a population at around 8 million+. My second to last task is to earn the Platinum Keys necessary to raise Mountain and Beach coverage from 60% over 60 percent of the map to 100% over 80% of the map (made possible by the new PK Mountain Waterfall Castle and Beach Delta specialization properties). It presently has 350 RZ (210 Epics, 140 Omegas) but it also has 100% specialization coverage (that is, all RZs are covered) by 100% Parks, Transportation, Education, Entertainment, Landmarks, and Gambling. Over the past two years my main city has meandered its way towards max population.
