The max city size was shipped at 60. One issue with
this is that the Hospital city improvement does not
increase max city size as stated in both manuals.
So add a max city statement for Hospital in buildings
.txt and adjust arcologies and aqua filter.
I recommend the following max city sizes to get to
a max of 102.

Initial 18

Aqueduct 14 (N/C)
Hospital 17
Arcologies 25
Aqua filter 28

Also one will have to adjust the 'overcrowding'
parameter for each transition. For instance, I adjusted
them so that a little 'red growth' remained after each
transition after city size 19. (Except body exchange)
Note: This includes adjusting 'Drug store' and '
Incubation center'.

Ok..I adjusted the overcrowding of each size improvement..by 2

Starting with Aqueduct..I left alone per your direction..then I added 2 to Hospital,Arcologies,Aqua Filter, Drug Store & Incubation..but NOT Body Exchange!

I hope this works and By the way..I Thank you so much because there are some of us folks out here who are not happy with CTP:2..shipped version..and I am not a "MODDER"..like the great folks that post scenarios..(Although I hope to attempt one soon one day!!)

I just enjoy tweaking some parameters here and there..to allow me some different fun with the game!!!

You might have to adjust the 'overcrowding' a little more
but otherwise sounds good. The cities larger then 72 are
hungry all the time.

Perhaps..I could alter what food silo does..or cornucopic vats..are suppossed to prevent starvation??

I will report what I can find!!

--> I finally got my game to allow the cities to grow beyond 60 by making some changes in the citysize0.txt file. In the last two city entries I increased the value for the BaseMaxPop setting and then changed the MaxPopulation setting for the last city entry. Changing the workers category seems to decrease the city's productivity, so I stopped messing with that for the time being. <--

Pop:CTP2_SPINNER {
# MDS 08/2000
# int xpix 70
# int ypix 112
int xpix 58
int ypix 63
int widthpix 90
int minxval 0
int maxxval 20000
int incxval 1
int xval 1
string statustext "str_SE_PopSpinner"
string tipwindow "str_SE_PopSpinner"
}

Now I am able to create cities with a pop of 20000.
