I've recently bought Sim City 4, migrating from simcity 3000. Does it have things "unlock" as time passes, for example, in SC 3000, the incinerator gets unlocked at like 1912, does this happen in sim city 4? and do they even have things for garbage besides landfills?


Thanks!

You get unlockables based on what direction you take your city. Heavy High Tech industries unlock the space port, big commercial gains grant you larger air ports, large populations and so many monorail stations get you the grand station, shit like that. Everything thats locked that you can select it will tell you what you need to do to unlock it.

Also, a useful trick to avoid pollution is to put all your dirty industries and power plants in a neighboring square from your main city. Pollution doesn't travel across zones so you'll have a pristine city and you can buy power for cheaper than the maintenance costs are for the plants themselves. You can ship your trash out as well to save space.
