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)
