Cities: Skylines 2 Update 1.1.6f1 Patch Notes:

Hi everyone.

Today's patch includes fixes for some of the issues reported with patch 1.1.5f1, also known as Economy 2.0, as well as some new free content. Our art team has been working on new service building variations and additional theme vehicles to expand the options you have. For those of you who enjoy detailing, we have added an Age Selector to the Tree Placement Tool for more control over your trees, and the Surface Tool which allows you to add 11 different surfaces to your city. As the #1 implies, this is only part 1 of "Detailer's Patch" as we want to address the feedback we've received and improve the support for this play style. More information on what else we have in the works to come.

For now, we hope you will enjoy the new additions and bug fixes. Thank you to everyone who reported bugs or shared constructive feedback, and to everyone who has filled out the survey. We've already started looking into how we can tweak balancing in the future based on your responses.

And as always, if you encounter any new issues following this patch, we'd appreciate a bug report here:

We wish you a wonderful July and look forward to continuing development when we're back in the office in August.

Remember: A new patch can cause compatibility issues with mods. If you have issues, please disable mods and wait for them to be updated by modders. See this thread for more information.

Known Issues

The Small Post Office doesn’t receive incoming mail to distribute in the city.

Office companies recover from the 5/5 worker count slowly, provided they’re able to make a profit in the city.

Office companies may not leave the city as they should when their building is removed. If you’re still seeing offices stuck at 5/5 workers or continuously losing workers, they are likely stuck in the city. You can force them out using this workaround:

  • Increase office tax to 30%
  • Let the simulation run until all office buildings are empty, which may take about a month in-game time. You can see empty office buildings (shown as grey) in the Profitability Info View, or check when you no longer receive any tax income from offices.
  • Once all office companies have left your city, set the tax back to your preferred level.
  • New office companies will start to populate your city.
  • Please note: You will likely not see any office demand for a while as you have many empty office buildings. This is completely normal. Office demand will return with time as the existing buildings fill up.

As an alternative that preserves the office demand, you can do the following:

  • Remove all office zoning in your city.
  • Let the simulation run until you have 0 tax income from offices.
  • Zone offices again where you want them.
