City Stuck

★★★ Newbie

I have a city is stuck.  The lizard came and will not go away.  Not sure how to move on from there.  I don't want to start another city.

Hi @Pinelli15 - When the lizard disaster appears, he is going to stomp his way to your garbage dump, burrow in and out of it a couple of times until he destroys it, then go away.

 

If your entire city has stalled for some reason, first just try exiting the game, then re-entering. There might just be a glitch that caused the game to hang. Back out of the game and Origin completely, then you can restart the game. Make sure you're running Origin and SimCity "as Administrator".

 

If the city is still running, but the lizard is stalled, maybe he has glitched and can't find the garbage dump. Try plopping a new dump directly in his path, so he can eat the dump sites. That should make him happy and finish his disaster so you can rebuild. 

 

This is also a good way to limit how much damage the lizard does. If one spawns on the opposite side of the map, pause the game & plop a dump in his path, close to him. That way he won't destroy everything on his way over.

 

Hope this helps - happy building!
