- Upgraded to Godot 4 - Just remembered the basic principles are based on a tile editor, and dramatically simplified from there. Derp. - New state machine and license display add-ons. - Re-licensed under the GPL because Micropolis' assets aren't under a separate one. |

News Ticker
With the exception of certain policies, the majority of the lore in City Limits comes from the news ticker. During regular gameplay (when there isn't any disasters or financial problems), the news ticker provides fictional turn of events that happen in the city, such as the Kitty Kibble shortage from SimCity 3000.
Configuration
The news ticker is completely configurable. News can be added or removed from the game without having to touch the code. The configuration is stored in the config.json
file.
{
"outlet": "Pawprint Press",
"competing_outlet": "Citizen Telegram",
"ticker_files": [
"adverts.json",
"sammy.json",
"kittykibble.json",
"citylife.json",
"extra_lore.json"
]
}
The outlet
is the city's news brand, the competing_outlet
is part of the optional extra_lore.json
file, and ticker_files
is an array of filenames that contain the news itself.
