Tips (rubbish dumps)

Tips provide a place to put your rubbish. If you accumulate too much at markets, they are forced to burn some. This makes quite a lot of pollution so you should be wary of letting rubbish accumulate.

As the tip is filled, it slowly turns into a hill, which is grassed over when it is full.

If you clean up your city the trash from the tip can be re-excavated and processed in forests, electrified farms and recycling centers.

Formulas

1: 200 waste => 200 buried waste

2: 200 buried waste => 200 waste

Tips target 20% waste inventory. If there is more than 20% waste inventory, then formula 1 is applied. If there is less than 20% waste inventory, then formula 2 is applied.

Buried waste degrades daily at a rate of 0.5% per year.
