Hello!
I’ve been playing Cities: Skylines on PlayStation 4 and 5 for several years, and it was incredibly exciting when you allowed console players in the remastered version to create custom maps and build within 25 tiles. I understand the primary focus is now on Cities: Skylines II, and that support for Cities: Skylines is understandably limited. However, I have a suggestion for a feature I would love to see in a future update.
It would be amazing to have the ability to manually place specific styles of buildings from the different zoning categories. For example, in High-Density Residential zones, instead of zoning and waiting for a specific type of building to appear, I could place the one I want directly. Similarly, if I’m aiming for a particular commercial establishment, I currently have to repeatedly zone and de-zone until the building I desire appears. This process can be cumbersome, as there’s often a limit to how many of a certain building can be placed via zoning. To achieve the look I want, I frequently have to expand zoning far beyond what’s practical, rather than simply selecting and placing the desired structures.
I’ve noticed that many Cities: Skylines content creators use mods to address this issue, and I understand that integrating something similar into the console version could be a challenge. However, adding this functionality would significantly enhance the creative freedom for players and make building customized cities far easier.
Thank you for taking the time to read my suggestion, and I hope you have a fantastic day!
