City planning aid for city view #319

Open wayneb64 opened 3 years ago

wayneb64 commented 3 years ago

Seeing the work being done with the 'city' lenses and most recently the removal of some buttons from the minimap while in the city view an idea just struck me. Often when I found a city I want to plan out where my districts will go and place map pins to 'remember' this for later. The first request is to be able to add map pins while in city view, somehow I don't think this is currently possible but I might be wrong about that.

My real request is around some kind of tool that would show my which tiles are valid for which types of districts. Take the dam for example. Until you research the correct tech the game won't tell you which tiles are legal to place dams. I need to plan them and aqueducts so hopefully I can plan an Industrial Zone adjacent to both. Of course I would like to see all of the adjacency bonuses while I does this and what would be the icing on the cake is if this tool recognized map tacks I already placed to add to those bonuses.

This does sound very involved so it's probably not possible but just in case it is I thought I would suggest it.

The Pins UI does some things while in the City View that I couldn't get it to work nicely. I agree that would be handy, though. Not sure the best thing to do in that case

For your second request, does Detailed Map Tacks do what you are looking for? It seems to allow planning regardless of techs/civics unlocked.

I was not aware of that mod, looks interesting, I will have to check it out as trying to figure out where I can put dams/aqueducts has always been a challenge to planning the best location for the industrial zone.
