Patch 1.2.2 released – Limit increases and other bugfixes

Picture by Paradox (and Skylinesnation).

Greeting from Paradox:

Greetings dearest Chirpies

Happy autumn friends! We Nords are slowly calming down after the brief
summer and setting into the cozy pace required to survive the dark
months. Ah, hot coco, blankets and a great game or three – bliss.

This is a two staged post. First and foremost, we’re releasing a patch today and increasing several in-game limits! Wohoo!

You have asked for this since we launched the game. Originally it was
not a possible option as it would require an increase in system
requirements. Since then we have worked diligently with optimizing Cities: Skylines and have now been able to use that extra juice-room to push the limits further!

Why not open it up entirely to modders? The tl;dr reason is that
it would require a large amount of time. Limits are tied to several
somewhat complex dependencies and fiddling with this could easily end up
in us breaking something rather than improving it. Our focus lies
elsewhere as it stands, we hope this is a good compromise

Why no changes in agent limits? It hogs way too many resources and is not doable under our current sys-reqs.

Is this final? Nothing is ever final – but we are going to leave
this alone for the foreseeable future and focus our efforts elsewhere
going forward.
