Cities Skylines 2: Water Facility Upgrades
Much like the upgrades available for other municipal services, water facilities can be enhanced through operational improvements, additional building sections, and supplemental structures. These augmentations not only boost the capacity but also introduce new functionalities, enhancing the output of freshwater and sewage treatment. Additionally, they equip both water and sewage facilities with advanced pollution combat mechanisms.
For instance, an operational upgrade for the Groundwater Pumping Station could be the integration of a sophisticated Filtering System, which significantly reduces the contaminants in the water it draws. Meanwhile, the Sewage Outlet could be enhanced with a Chemical Purification system, minimizing its pollutant discharge into water sources. In terms of building extensions, both the Water Pumping Station and the Groundwater Pumping Station can amplify their water extraction capabilities. On the other hand, the Wastewater Treatment Plant can substantially ramp up its sewage processing volume by adding Extra Processing Units as sub-building augmentations.
WATER & SEWAGE INFO VIEW
Wrapping up our discussion today, we delve into the Water & Sewage info view. This vital interface pinpoints the locations of your water and sewage infrastructures and offers insightful visuals otherwise hidden from view. Much like the Electricity info view, the Water Availability meter is featured, giving you a snapshot of the city’s water consumption and output, thus facilitating a swift assessment of urban water demands. Furthermore, the Water Trade indicator allows you to monitor water transactions—whether your city is importing or exporting—to Outside Connections. Naturally, sewage doesn’t take a back seat, with dedicated meters delivering essential insights into your wastewater management.
Beneath these meters lies a myriad of toggleable visual features. For instance, water and sewage pipelines are distinguishably color-coded in blue and yellow, complete with indicators to depict the flow direction within the network. Contaminated water sources and tainted groundwater pockets stand out vibrantly in this view, with arrows showcasing water movement.
Equipped with these tools and insights, you’re well-poised to cater to your citizens’ vital water and sewage needs. We’re curious—what new features are you eagerly anticipating in Cities: Skylines II? Share your thoughts in the comment section. If you missed our previous discussion, do revisit our last development diary focusing on City Services, where we delved into the range of services the game will offer. Be on the lookout next week, as we traverse the varied terrains set to form the bedrock of your urban visions, discussing map dimensions, themes, and more. Stay connected!
