Guys where should i build trade companies and subsidiaries?

Post a custom faction and explain it.

Turbo tall race. Power level hero with riftborn magic and the science of religion. Consume whole planets in half the time!

The system that you can build the improvements for system trade the fastest. You want the wonder and it costs lots of production.

Also I think the system with the most luxuries.

>has to build colony ships
so
uh
what do vodyani colony ships look like?

Reminder that this shit still isn't fucking fixed despite today's patch.

They're the leecher ships, since those are their "civilian" ships, I think.

Also, does anyone else do this?

This is the proper way to cheese arks, right?

Same as leecher, now they colonize instead of leech.

Better to build all production modules and spam leechers I think. Especially since they get the 15 prod +5% so early.

/gsg/ told me to bring citybuilding questions here since /cbg/ is dead

I'm trying to learn simcity 4, and I've got a decent city built. It's built well enough that my sims are demanding more everything. The issue is that none of my lots will grow higher, and I'm running out of room to build out.
I know I could start a new city in another tile and use it to absorb the excess demand, but I'm sort of following teamliquid.net/blogs/402446-simcity-4-tutorial-part-1 and he gets baby skyscrapers before starting a second city.
