None of the non-regular garbage trucks linked in the description appear in "available vehicles" when using Vehicle Selector mod. Only the regular versions. Not sure if enabling spawn for the non-regular garbage trucks via AVO is sufficient (haven't tested yet) to make sure the WtE plant uses the biofuel garbage trucks.

For any wondering how to make it produce more power; it needs more reserve, the more reserve it has the higher it's processing rate (like recycling centers) thus the more power it produces.
So that means you want less garbage facilities all round, because you want it all to go to this one (if your goal is to turn trash into power).

If you combine it with 4 recycling centers spread around the city it will only get a small cut of the trash, thus very low processing rate / power generation.

Considering it has 50 freaking trucks and only noise pollution, hide it in the heart of your city surrounded by commercial or next to a highway (somewhere noisy, so it blends in / the noise doesn't matter) from there it can serve the entire city on it's own with it's 50 trucks and huge processing power.

You'll have to give up getting free goods/resources from recycling centers though until the point where your waste to energy plan caps out.

Does this work like waste processing facility from Sunset Harbor?

Looks so modern!

Oddly enough, just after posting (18 Aug) I returned to the city and started emptying a landfill and immediately the reserves and output started to rise and quickly reached full power and has remained there since. I don't know if emptying the landfill was the catalyst or not. I usually need to have at least one landfill emptying anyway.

Honestly, the mechanics confuse also. Typically any slow downs are due to distance from the plant or traffic

I'm producing only 40MW of power. Garbage reserves for the plant are 120,000/1,200,000. City garbage production is 134,000 and processing is 160,000. Will less recycling boost the reserves and power production of the plant? I'm not sure how the mechanics of the plants work, i.e. where it gets the garbage.

yo can anyone save my city? XD its pilled up with garbage and i cant fix it, probably its because of the trafic, it was okay and duable on 50k but now it has 100k people and its slowly dying :\

Brilliant just what I'm looking for :steamhappy: and a small bonus an aussie to an aussie :steamhappy: have a brilliant day
TimmyBuckets  [author] 24 Aug, 2020 @ 2:28pm 
Thanks for the feedback. I guess i made it for my cities and wanted a single place to be able to take all my waste. I've had 2 people say a similar thing. If more say it i will consider modifying it. The bigger issue is now that it has 30K subscribers and would potentially have a significant impact on peoples games. You can easily edit in the asset editor
kongkim 21 Aug, 2020 @ 11:40pm 
Can't remember what it take, but compare the upkeep to other power building and then that it also take a huge amount of garbage. the numbers don't make it balanced.
But the model is nice :)
TimmyBuckets  [author] 21 Aug, 2020 @ 10:18pm 
It is, but also takes alot to be able to get that much power
kongkim 21 Aug, 2020 @ 9:14am 
it give 400 power, that is a lot.
TimmyBuckets  [author] 21 Aug, 2020 @ 4:11am 
OP?
kongkim 18 Aug, 2020 @ 12:41pm 
Its nice but really OP.

If I get more requests for it I will. Otherwise easy enough for you to edit in asset adroit if you wish :)

@Chackson
Can you change the capacity? It's would really unrealistic (at least compare in the game) when this building has just a little more processing rate but product way too much Electricity.
TimmyBuckets  [author] 10 Apr, 2020 @ 1:55pm 
@nhatanh0475 - the tech for waste to energy was in industries. The range I’ll get for you when I jump in the game next. I feel like it was 600k
nhatanh0475 9 Apr, 2020 @ 8:28am 
Hey @Chackson
Why does this asset need Industries DLC instead of Green City? And can you so us the range please? Thanks
TimmyBuckets  [author] 27 Mar, 2020 @ 4:00am 
@crelle2008 - “Waste to Energy” means it converts waste into Electricity
Hentaisimpdudelol 27 Mar, 2020 @ 2:53am 
Does it produce electricity?
TimmyBuckets  [author] 22 Feb, 2020 @ 2:00pm 
Does now :)
NiDayeAmI 22 Feb, 2020 @ 4:13am 
no lights?
TimmyBuckets  [author] 8 Feb, 2020 @ 12:44pm 
Hi Zivouine, no i dont believe its possible. There's tech in the DLC that allows it actually work i believe. If i find a way to do it will def upload a version.
Zivouine 8 Feb, 2020 @ 6:04am 
Hi, possible to have a non DLC version (only unique building)?
SharpX 7 Feb, 2020 @ 4:20am 
i will get industries soon if it is on sale though
TimmyBuckets  [author] 6 Feb, 2020 @ 6:10pm 
Some changes done to the textures, not too much that its significant. But, enough to appear dirty
TimmyBuckets  [author] 6 Feb, 2020 @ 3:54pm 
You need industries because in the base game the waste to energy option isnt available
TimmyBuckets  [author] 6 Feb, 2020 @ 1:29am 
Yes, you need industries
SharpX 6 Feb, 2020 @ 12:04am 
do you have to own industries to get this to work ?
TimmyBuckets  [author] 5 Feb, 2020 @ 10:12pm 
Zero ground pollution. All its waste is turned into Energy with a bit of steam out the top :)
Bp101697 5 Feb, 2020 @ 8:52am 
How much ground pollution this building emits?
TimmyBuckets  [author] 4 Feb, 2020 @ 4:12pm 
Thanks, i'll have a look at in the few days and make a decision wether to modify it. The way i've layered the textures and mapping it may not work out well. But will def have a look. Thank you for the feedback and i agree with you. The other models in production will have more of this
Amayasnep 4 Feb, 2020 @ 2:57pm 
It's looks just like the real thing. I agree with Avanya that some dirt/weathering textures would be nice, but otherwise exceptional job.
Rooster 2 Feb, 2020 @ 9:56pm 
Great downloading now!
TimmyBuckets  [author] 2 Feb, 2020 @ 9:55pm 
Just the main one... The extra links are if you would like to use the garbage trucks with the same branding.
Rooster 2 Feb, 2020 @ 9:48pm 
A Star for going green,but,do I need to download all those assets to make it work? Or just one or two?
Avanya 2 Feb, 2020 @ 5:54am 
No problem! I'm always happy to see more creators make this kind of assets. :D
TimmyBuckets  [author] 2 Feb, 2020 @ 2:26am 
Thanks Avanya, weird you mention this because the same thought has been popping into my head the last few days. Thank you!
Avanya 2 Feb, 2020 @ 2:23am 
Woo, more infrastructure buildings :D

A little tip on buildings like this. They are rarely clean and adding all sorts of grunge and dirt decals to the textures helps really bring the building to life.

Beautiful!

Looking great!
