Citystate II received an update after nearly two months. Update 1.1.2 brings new content like the Carbon Capture Building, which is said to reduce pollution surrounding it. The developers have also added five new growable buildings: the low-income stage 1, middle-income stage 7, upper-class stage 6, office stage 4, and office stage 5. These growable buildings will only develop in areas that are zoned by the players and meet the criteria.
That’s not all. This update also comes with several balancing changes. One graphical change is that the shadow resolution has been doubled. This will make the building shadows and other shadows look more realistic. However, it can utilize a lot of processing power. So, if you have an old machine, you might want to lower this setting.
