Actually, literacy also sort of works like it’s own fourth development option, so it’s actually pretty interesting. There’s no option to spend monarch points to develop your provinces, and instead, they progress at their own rate, which is affected by things such as literacy and agriculture.

Your expansion options are also increased, with provinces now having nationalism and their own little ways of developing. You could always invite more cultures to join, thereby increasing your governance capacity, but you will lose a bit of control on the process. Much like the empire sprawl in Stellaris, this mod adds a ‘governance capacity’ which puts a limit on how much land you can actually rule, which itself is based on the number of population in your primary culture. Industrial buildings you add to that district will then be specialized ones supplying your city with food, coal, oil, and wood.One of the biggest changes is actually quite familiar if you’ve played Paradox’s other game Stellaris. Brush over a resource area (shown on the game’s map) to add the district and then select a specialization option for it. You can add industrial districts (when unlocked) by pressing the district button shown directly below. However, 10 percent cuts for multiple services can save your city quite a bit of money.Īdding industrial districts with farming, oil, forest, and ore specializations later in the game will reduce your city’s import costs. A marginal 10 percent budget cut for any service will only have a relatively minor impact. So, it’s best not to raise taxes much higher than 12 percent.Ĭost cutting can be a better way to balance the books if your city’s turnover drops uncomfortably close to zero. Citizens will start complaining and maybe even move out if you raise tax beyond that mark. The 12 percent mark is about the highest you can raise taxes without impacting residential, industrial, and commercial demand levels too much.

Nine percent is the default tax rate in Cities: Skylines. A landfill site Don’t Set Taxes Higher Than 12 Percent
