====== CREATING CITY NETWORKS ======

People build complex machines called cities, outposts, or stations which integrate many structures, networks, and services supporting large numbers of people.

Creating these machines combines the layout of:
  * Air distribution networks 
  * Water distribution networks
  * Food distribution networks
  * Power distribution networks
  * Waste disposal / reclamation networks
  * Communication networks
  * Road, Bus, Subway, Train, Monorail networks
  * Aerial corridor (aka "flyways") or traffic control networks
  * River/Sea traffic control networks
  * Space traffic control networks (orbits, launch/landing windows, etc)
