Life in Cities: Skylines 2
Hello and welcome back to another developer diary for Cities: Skylines II! This time, we take a closer look at the residents of your cities, their lives, and the decisions they make as they grow older, and how your actions shape their lives in different directions.
The citizens act as one of the main actors in the game. They are the inhabitants of the houses in the residential zones, they are the workforce of the industrial, commercial, and office zones, and they are the customers in the commercial zones. The citizens suffer when the services do not function properly, but they also benefit and thrive when you manage to govern your city well and satisfy their various needs.
Citizen Activities
Citizens are always busy and engage in a variety of different activities. These include everyday things like working or going to school, shopping, sleeping, or learning. They also have rarer activities like committing crimes, fleeing from crime scenes, seeking medical treatment, and moving away. Many of these actions have simulation effects.
Pets in Cities: Skylines 2
Citizens can own pets. Pet owners are randomly selected from the population. Pets are purely cosmetic and have no impact on the citizen's happiness or their consumption of resources.
The Life Path of a Citizen
Each citizen has their own life path, which describes the important events in their life. They either move into the city or are born there. They grow up, go to school, and find work. They spend their free time at home, in parks and other attractions, or go shopping in the city's commercial buildings. They may fall ill or become unemployed, and if they are happy, they stay in the city and eventually die of old age. You can keep an eye on all of this with Cities: Skylines 2.
Citizen Happiness - The Key to Success?
