> I wonder if you simulate at individual level or group? Would be cool at individual level each one making decisions individually and see some emerging behavior.

If you are referring to the citizens, yes, at individual level. However for traffic I'm using a sampling rate.

That's an awesome idea, I added it to my backlog :)

This is mega tricky, because it happens very differently across the world. Yes, can be expensive computationally that's why the city is so small (for now) but as I start to distribute the simulation into many cores, players with high core CPU will be able to choose a bigger city size :) I agree that individual level simulation is what makes it interesting and I plan to keep it like that.

This is awesome. I can’t wait until it gets big enough where you’ll start distributing the sim between different machines.
