Another high score question: What is the biggest SimCity you ever built ? My best city is at about 130'000 inhabitants (all disasters disabled). I just seem to have problems with economic cycles.

The most populous city I've built was about 250,000. The city score averaged around 610. The highest 'city score' I've had (that lasted several years) was about 800. The city in question was a small (~15,000) town on a river and in a forest. (Actually, thanks to the terrain editor this mimicked the layout of a town I know. The real town has a population of about 200 though.) Bob Grumbine a.k.a. rmg3@psuvm.psu.edu

I've managed to get a city with 252,220 citizens, but then the city
seemed to stop growing. There would be, lets say, 200-300 people
settling down every year. Even though I had built something on every
square of map, lots of residential, commercial and industrial areas,
and the demand bars stod tall no one seemed to be interested in moving in.
Eventually I got bored and quit. It was year 2029 and my score was 887.
Great game/simulation anyway ...
BTW, I heard someone saying that, here at Chalmers, they are using SimCity
in an educational purpose. Could that really be true? Have anybody else
heard anything about running SimCity as an educational tool?
