I can’t understand why people complaining about city growth.
City growth in Train Fever is very balanced unless there are huge lag/framedrop when population of the largest city has over 2000 pops (and other cities are avg. 1000 pops)
Most of my game city hits around 800-1000 pops in largest city on 1900, and over 1500 on 1950. no intercity buses/trams.
This is my largest city on 1978 (I abandoned that map because game is too slow to play when simulation is played)
