No need to pump dirtwater into your map and pollute your surface water.
How to Do It
Сrеdit gоеs to !
You do not want to pump dirty water into the river that is flowing through your city? – Here is how to do it!
Basic concept: You can use the export sewage function to get rid of any polluted water your city produces.
There is the option to “export” polluted/sewage water through pipes in outside connections. this will happen only if you have sewage in your system, not enough outflow (no sewage pumping station) and an outside connection.
This option is not accessible from the start because you need at least 10-12 maptiles to connect to the edge of the map. You can still use this method from the start without ever putting down a sewage outlet.
- 1) Start your new city. Do not put down any zoning!
- 2) Gain enough XP to unlock Milestone 3 – this will give you 12 Maptiles to buy!
You can gain a lot of XP by building a Roadnetwork even before you zone any buildings. If thats not enough build wind turbines – they give you 100XP for each and cost only 25.000 – You can bulldoze them again for a partially refund of your money.
The money from the milestones and the refunds should leave you with 2.000.000 Starting money when you reach milestone 3 – so enough to keep building after that.
- 3) Buy 10-12 maptiles to reach the mapedge
- 4) Create an outside connection with pipes and make sure these are connected to you city pipegrid in the center (watch out for Bridges and larger Highways – they do not have pipes in them)
Continue to build your city as usual!
- 5) Optional – once you unlock water treatment facilitys you can put them down wherever you like in your city – they can lower the amount of sewage water and return fresh water into the circuit – depending on the amounts of cleaned water this may drop your sewage export to 0 at times.
