| Tower Tips 101 | 100% | |
| Metro Station requires a subway tunnel running the entire length of the landform on B10. You will not be able to place it if you build anything on B10 except the Metro Station. Even if you bulldoze things that were placed on B-10, the floor section will remain, and even the smallest floor section will block the Metro tunnel. The only exception to this is the "lots of money" cheat and the elevator mechanisms that "hang down" from elevators which terminate on floor B9. You do not have to bring all service elevators to the recycling center although the manual says you do. It would be impossible since service elevators can only go 30 floors. You'll notice that stores, theatres and other similiar places do well in the basement. But they also bring in a lot of traffic from outside. In order to keep your "permanent" population upstairs happy, you may need to have elevator service that services only the basement levels and the floor 1 lobby. Build a regular elevator that passes through a recycling center. You may occasionally see people get on and off in mid-air on the upper floor of the recycling center. Try it! One successful strategy is to keep offices and condos totally separated by building entire floors of offices and entire floors of condos. You might want to mix fast food joints with offices on the floor just above each lobby and put all your stores, movie theatres, etc. in the basement levels. How can you tell if SimCitizens are waiting to go up or down an elevator? Remember the mneumonic LARD. People waiting to the -L-eft of the elevator are -A-scending, while those waiting to the -R-ight of the shaft are -D-escending. | ||
