Iwant to share my early build of an isometric economic simulator I'm making.

.You are the head of the city, who came to restore the island after a long war.

You have to develop the island, build buildings, manage resources and meet the needs of residents.




The gameplay should be like regular rts games. Build buildings, collect taxes, get new resources and complete quests. The main thing is that the inhabitants of the island are happy, and this requires more resources

This is how it looked on my simulator:


Apparently, due to performance problems, the handler for the construction of buildings did not work, which is a pity.

I left a lot of room for optimizations, I hope to eventually get a stable 30 fps!


Some updates:

Increased fps to 30. Set setUpdatesEnabled for tiles that do not use animation.

Also heavy functions like DFS wrapped in coroutines.

Thanks to discord community for the help with testing!


I used the concept of screens, its greatly simplifies the logic of working with input data. You can implement different logic for processing button clicks for different screens.

Now in a little more detail how it works inside (I have removed some of the logic that is specific to my game)


PC Building Simulator 2 is a simulation-strategy video game developed by Spiral House and published by Epic Games Publishing. It is the sequel to PC Building Simulator. The game was released on October 12, 2022 for Windows. It features parts based on real life components from a vast array of specialised brands that endorsed the game such as AMD, Intel, and Nvidia.


Like the first game, the game is concentrated around owning and running a workshop which builds and maintains PCs, mainly gaming-oriented ones.[1] The sequel expands on the original game by adding new features to the two main game modes: Career, and Free Build. PC Building Simulator 2 allows players to install apps without restarting the PC they are working on, and more in-depth PC customisation. Most of the applications that appeared on the previous game are refreshed and the general visual aesthetics of the game updated.


In the career mode, the player has moved to Uncle Tim's PC Shop in UK after a fire.[2][failed verification] Similar to the previous game, the player will start with some beginning jobs, including performing a virus scan for the first customer, and as they progress through the game new tools and more advanced jobs will be available for them.


The trailer of PC Building Simulator 2 was released in March 2022.[3] An open beta for the game was available from 11-20 June.[4] Epic Games Publishing published the game via its own Epic Games Store in October of the same year.[5]


PC Building Simulator 2 received "generally favorable reviews" according to review aggregator Metacritic.[6] NME highlighted the accurate representation of PC building and repairs, but notes that players may lose interest overtime.[1] Dexerto lauded the improvements and new features compared to its predecessor.[2] GameSpew praised the game for setting "a new benchmark" for simulation games.[7] Multiplayer.it touted the variety of hardware components and excellent simulation.[8] Impulse Gamer criticised the stock in-game music, but praises the game as a "terrific sim" and great learning tool for aspiring PC builders.[9] Sector.sk praises the game as a well-rounded sequel, but has gripes with the monotonous and repetitive campaign.[10]


The Switch is home to a vast variety of games encompassing all sorts of genres from first-person shooters to visual novels, but we can probably all agree that PC Building Simulator is a game that none of us were expecting to see pop up on the eShop (then again, we got Car Mechanic Simulator, so apparently anything's game).


Undoubtedly catered to a very specific audience, PC Building Simulator is an admirable attempt to provide an authentic experience to those who relish the thought of tinkering with the dusty innards of a PC. In the game, you play as a PC expert who runs his/her own repair centre. You'll receive requests via your own desktop email to fix or upgrade PCs, which will be delivered to your office the following day. Parts required to complete the job can also be ordered through your desktop's shopping app, though you'll obviously need to keep an eye on your budget.


When the PCs arrive, you'll begin the arduous task of carrying them to your worktop, taking the panels off the main unit, unplugging cables, replacing parts, putting it back together, before finally hooking it up to a monitor to test and run an antivirus software, if need be. Once everything's done, you ship the PC back to its owner and collect payment via your email.


It's not a game for everyone, that much is obvious. But what it does, it actually does quite well. You can interact with the game using both the touch screen and the physical buttons, so you can move the camera around with the control sticks and perform more intricate tasks - like inserting screws - using your finger. It's surprisingly intuitive, and if nothing else, the game would serve well as an educational tool. On the flip side, it can occasionally be a little too fiddly, and the game's load times are a bit of a nightmare, particularly when booting up the main menu. Additionally, the game features horrific music that really doesn't fit the nature of the gameplay at all, and we'd have expected to see a bit more variety here.


The last time I built a custom PC, it ran Windows XP. However, the case was shaped like a cat, which probably makes any modern-day PC you could build in this game (or in real life) look like crap. Unless you can build a PC shaped like a cat. At any rate, I really did enjoy the physical part of building a PC, and this sounds like a nice way to get to experience that again without the ridiculous cost. Or the fact that your PC is obsolete the second you're done building it.


@Xylnox good question... if you check the scoring policy page it details what we mean by each score, so the reviewer checks their thoughts against the scale to see where it best fits based on their experience. The Editor will also check that the tone of the review matches the score definition too. So it's not really a case of working forwards or backwards.


For people into PC building it's great and for anyone with a vague interest there's a lot of fun to bed had. You actually learn how to out a PC together about parts and compatibility quite well. (It is all licensed and genuine parts).


I bought it yesterday to feed my addiction to the 'real' Car Mechanic Simulator on PS4 (not the cruddy mobile port on the Switch) when I'm not at home and it's different in enough ways to keep me interested. It's crazy how almost 'life sim' the game can get since you have to pay your bills and when you order parts you have to wait for them to come in the mail or risk paying a crazy 'same day delivery' shipping price. Other than that, I find it a nice rewarding game where the goal is to just zen out and build stuff.


The Ultimate PC Building Simulation has arrived!

Build your very own PC empire, from simple diagnosis and repairs to bespoke, boutique creations that would be the envy of any enthusiast. With an expansive marketplace full of real-world components you can finally stop dreaming of that ultimate PC and get out there, build it and see how it benchmarks in 3DMark!



Run your own Business

The career mode in PC Building Simulator puts you in charge of your very own PC building and repair business. From your own cozy workshop, you must use all your technical skills to complete the various jobs that come your way.



Learn to Build a PC

Does building your own PC seem like an impossible task?

PC Building Simulator aims to teach even the most novice PC user how their machine is put together with step-by-step instructions explaining the order parts should be assembled and providing useful information on what each part is and its function.


Building Simulation: An International Journal is dedicated to the publication of high-quality research on modeling and simulation of buildings and their systems. Covers a broad spectrum, from building thermal, lighting, acoustics modeling, and building systems, to indoor/outdoor airflow and air quality. Emphasizes on the latest developments and applications of modeling tools in building science and technology. Promotes a multidisciplinary, international perspective on building, environmental and human behavioral sciences. Encourages submissions that contribute to the evolving field of building simulation.


Open your T3D file. On the Building menu, click Building. The latitude, longitude and time zone figures displayed in the Building dialog box were used for the shadow calculations when your geometry was exported to the Building Simulator.


To correct this, you should re-export your T3D and re-run the shadow calculations. You MUST merge with your existing TBD file; for one thing this will avoid loss of data. Tas will read the latitude, longitude and time zone from your weather file during the merge process and update the Building dialog in your T3D.


The latitude, longitude and time-zone displayed in your T3D file will now equal the global position given in the weather file. You will now be able to simulate your TBD file without re-encountering this error.


Only those building elements adjacent to a zoned space are exported to the Building Simulator. Apply a zone to the remaining spaces in your model in order to export the building elements omitted in the Analysis model.


A Surface Output Specification allows you to output surface data to a Simulation Data file, or TSD. You can output solar gain, aperture data, condensation, conduction, convection, long wave and temperature information using a Surface Output Specification.
