Each of the large zones has a specific tile you must place the bulldozer on, 
for it to bulldoze. This tile is always in the second column from the left, and 
second row from the top. Place the bulldozer there, and you will see that it 
bulldozes the entire zone.

None of the nine tiles would respond when clicked upon :(

Interesting. I guess then there must be some bug causing a Java exception to be 
thrown when you click the center tile. Unfortunately you cannot see the Java 
exception because you are not running the game from a command prompt.

If you want to help me debug this more, try the following-

1. open a command prompt (if you are on a Mac computer, this would be called 
"terminal")

2. use the "cd" command to change to the directory where micropolisj.jar is 
located. E.g.

cd \path\to\micropolis

3. run the following command to start Micropolis

java -jar micropolisj.jar

Create a building, then try bulldozing it. Tell me if any text appears in the 
command prompt window.

Or you could wait for the next version of Micropolis, which I'll release in a 
few days, which may have already fixed this bug since I totally rewrote how 
bulldozing is done.

I've released version 1.3 of the software, which may fix your bulldozing bug. 
If it doesn't, it should at least popup an error message to explain the problem.
