New Experimental Script Variables For Customizing Game Logic
Migration Rate Modifier=5
//It modifies the rate at which people immigrate to a city. 100 is the standard value. A lower value means a slower migration rate.
Disable Local Economy=Yes
//When the local economy is disabled, there will be no local competitors selling products and no local businesses creating jobs.
Firm Employment Effect=1
// The effect of firms' job creations on the city's total employment.
// If this is larger than 1, then for each job created by a firm, the city's employed population size will be increased by 1 x <Firm Employment Effect> times.
Public Facilities Capacity Modifier=10
//It modifies the capacity of all public facilities. 100 is the standard value. It also modifies the setup cost and operating expenses of all public facilities.
Please note that these script variables are experimental in nature and are not officially supported. In the words, if it turns out that they do not work out well after the experiment, they may be removed from the game or be changed substantially.
