Haha thanks! Definitely adding that during map generation in next release.

I originally had sim but HN autocorrected it. I tried to edit it back to what I had but can't seem to now.

Congrats! Unplayable by most means but absolutely incredible how tiny it is so I love it.

Yeah great catch. So I mentioned this in the README but much of the mechanics were heavily inspired by jhhoward's MicroCity. This is the same way he calculated taxes and I figured to test it out to see how it worked in game. I really liked the flow of how his game played and seems like there are some pros/cons to that inbalance.

Pros: - Makes residential population more valuable for taxes, which helps early‑game cash flow. - Encourages zoning residential since it has outsized budget impact. - Offsets the fact that residential growth can be more constrained by pollution/unemployment.

Cons: - Skews the economy away from industrial/commercial impact. - Makes budget feel inconsistent with “total population.” - Can mask balance issues by injecting extra money, making difficulty tuning harder.

Thanks!

Thanks I'll post when it's available. Still waiting on the PR to merge in their Arcade repo.

Thank you!

Thank you!
