Key Features
Settler Constructed Cities
Settlement Cities That Build Themselves You can now put others, such as your companions, in charge of running settlements. They will build them up so that settlers can move in and create a city. Much like plots, the cities will upgrade over time as they mature and are given enough time and resources.
Create Your Own City Plans Create your own upgrading cities with the upcoming City Designer's Toolkit which will allow you to release your own upgradeable city designs!
Resource Stockpiling You can now have a direct influence over how fast these plots upgrade by helping the settler stockpile additional resources, or take away their resources and use them for yourself.
And Much More
Martial Plots and Recreational PlotsThese new plot types provide defense and happiness, respectively, so you can have more direct control over the needs of your settlement without the need for cheat items or turret spamming.
Animation and Sound To help bring a truly industrial feel to your city, Industrial Revolution is loaded with animated machinery, smog-churning buildings, and custom sounds.
Direct Control You can now directly select the types of buildings you want constructed to take full control over how your settlements are developed. Or you can let the settlements continue to grow organically- the choice is yours!
Secrets and Unlocks Many of the buildings in Industrial Revolution have secrets to be discovered and new items to unlock - such as new unique skill magazines and consumables.
Expanded Framework for Addon authors The framework has been greatly expanded, you can now not only create your own buildings for Sim Settlements, but also add new tech trees and custom resource generation. Check out the Builder's Toolkit page!
