dCity Progress Update #7

Introduction
Good day to everyone, a week had passed in the city and it's time to update the progress of my city and the things that happen in the city.

What is dCity?
The game is a city simulator game based on Hive NFTs where one can create a city the way we want it to be. As players develop and grow their cities, optimization is needed in terms of buildings, city population, the income that the city yields and technological developments. While many aspects of the game can be calculated based on the simulator within the game, there is a portion of randomness in the form of crisis event which can bring different kind of impact to city which affects income or popularity. If you like the original SimCity, I am sure you will like this.

My City
The below screenshot is how my city looks like at this moment. It is still the 14 bubbles that I had since last week. For now, I am still able to sustain within the top 400 in terms of income but I notice something disappearing, with 0.3 war share, there is no War profits. When I took a look, War Tax is gone and probably that is why the war profits is gone. Nevertheless, I still hoping for Young Citizens to pop into Students so that I can see their growth into another useful citizen to the city.

City Development
I realize I tend to get stuck in terms of City Development from time to time. There are just so many things to do. I guess that is what governors, ministers and presidents worry from time to time for place/country that they are placed in charge of. And I certainly feel that dCity has truly captured the spirit of this, where there is not just income, other aspects of city development is equally important such as education, war, art and even popularity.

I was onboarded and grow into what I am today thanks to the guidance of my mentor @ryosai. Time to time, he also spend time to share me on how I can grow my city and I am truly appreciate of the efforts he had done to share with not just me, but sharing also strategies in post to help onboard more players into dCity.

For me now, what I will continue focusing to obtain stable income for the city. To do so, I will need to continue work on more buildings and tax refund citizens.

This will come in the form of Ice Cream Shop, Music Store and Barber Shop. And to fill these structures, I will also be on the consistent lookout for more cards like Economist, Police, Eco-activist and other tax refund cards.

Current SIM Holdings
At the moment of writing, the current amount of SIM I am holding has reached 108,657 SIM. Quite a decent increase as I continue to increase the holdings.

Why Hold SIM?
This is reminder to all that holding SIM (or commonly known as SIM Power) brings about daily liquid hive if one having above 8000 SIM Power. SIM Power is calculated by the from the 30 days average SIM holdings.

With the increase in SIM in my Hive Engine, my 30 day average is will likely see a few days of Sim Power increase. Amount of liquid Hive per day based on current 30 day average is as seen below:

Assuming no increase in Sim Power, I will get 0.66 liquid Hive per month. The numbers continue to increase and building towards the goal I had for using the liquid Hive to fund for Hive Power Up Day, though still a far cry from the goal, I am certain that I am moving in the right direction.

Closing
City development needs to be continuously done and also while we want to develop the city, need to ensure that the city funds are in tact and not being overly spent. I will continue to monitor pricing trends of the things I am aiming for so that the city can be developed further!

Special thanks to @ryosai for always answering my questions on the game, guiding me through with your patience and even helping me with my city growth.

Looking forward to the journey of growing the city!
