It's working?

don't use this mod with real time mod unless you want half of your town to be children and elementary schools

Till Mar 24th 2021，this mod is still available.

is this mod working today?

I need help. When I load a savegame that I got from the workshop with this mod subscribed and enabled, the cims don't age and I sometimes end up with children being like 65% of the population.

Still working and completely compatible? thanks!

Im curious if this would be easy to modify so the sims live to there 80

Still makes almost no sense that life expactancy, if the game was brought to give a player a realistic vision of city building, is, without modding, of 5-6 years...
Modding it and bringing people to live for 20 - 25 years... Is like... simulating a life experience during the dawn of civilization :P

bo updates for 2 years, this mod has been abbandoned.

just a headsup, I enabled this mod, and after removing it, my game cannot speed up (only simulates at the slowest game speed).

公民的老化速度减慢

This mod would reduce the speed of school education? My city's business districts are always short of educated workers...

I think this was breaking my game

When I turn the mod off after using it to start a city will the cims return to their original aging process or will they stick with the aging of the mod? just wondering before I use it

Used this for my first city, everything was great, city was huge and populated well, then I kept getting notifications of graveyards being full, so I built another, and another, and another, then they were just getting smelly I guess. Like 40% of my population died at the same time lol

Its the best mod! Its helping me a lot in the game. I really dont know what I'll do without it. Please let always update this mod. Thank you so much for it

Ah ok! Good to know, and thanks for the response.

@Uberdubie: nothing has changed in regards to citizen aging, so the mod still works fine with After Dark.

Would these aging mods be compatible with After Dark? I imagine not, unless otherwise indicated.

@Nohealforu — is it possible to also slow rate of birth?

Tried it but, turned off for now. It's great for stabilising population, however, the drawback is that cims educate slower, this starves industry/commerce of educated workers, so the new death wave is bsuinesses closing due to lack of educated workers. Of course, you can work thorugh this but, for me, it's more like trying to sail with the anchor deployed.
So time for the careful seeding method I should have employed from day one. Gotta love learning curves!

@BruceWillis24: The game updates education levels at certain age milestones, so the citizens' education will still match up with their age categories (child, teen, young adult, adult). Birth rate tends to be a problem with this mod, since longer lifespans results in higher odds of having more children, so schools tend to get crowded by the increased family sizes.

I was also curious with the education as well. Does this mean when looking at the education tab, everything will stay red for much longer? Thanks so much for making these mods! They are so great, and allows for a more natural city!

So if i change it to 1/16, the citizens will die at 85-ish years?

So by increasing the lifespan and it will affect the education too?? As citizen will take longer to graduate ??

It doesn't seem to have any issues running with 1.1.

Is it 1.1 compatible?

sorry i misunderstand. this makes death wave more stable and high birth late bloc immigration wave. education can be problem but city can be more stable. thx a lot. nice mod!

It seems like to fix the wave effect of dying/birthing would be to increase the variable death age. Normally Cims die between 240 and 250 but never longer than 250. A larger window for death, say, 230-260 should introduce enough randomness to help it smooth out over time I would guess.

yes. problem is that. not how fast grow up or die.
only slow age mode makes a big death wave and city cannot survive until next generation...

I got some education problems by this. Bye.

This may not be this mod but, in my city people would not graduate from highschool. After turning this mod off the problem went away. Might want to look into it. Great mod, a patch might have messed with it.

I'm not sure if the new Patch 1.0.7c today has caused this mod to go apeshit. But something bad happened today. I logged in, and 40,000 people died. http://imgur.com/gallery/Zueo7Mw/new

I liked the premise of this mod but after trying it I found that it led to WILD population swings. In a city with ~90000 people, where the birth/death rates would lead to swings of 1-2 thousand, enabling this mod led to swings of more like 10000 that would wreak havoc on services and industry. The problem is that it seems like no matter what you do, sims tend to be born and die off in waves, and this mod just makes those waves MUCH larger

The birth rate needs to be changed as well, because as it is right now cities are exploding with babies because now the rate of birth and death are so out of synch.

WARNING: This mod completely breaks the balance of the game. (In a bad way)

This mod is awesome. Thanks, now the city is growing very well ... :-)

This seems to mess with the education (as in cims take longer to educate) thus making the game desync with needs in later levels when education is needed.

Could you share the source code? I'm very curious about is how you modify the game mechanics. Thank you very much.

Sucks that the vanilla version kills off the cims every 5-6 years... such a short lifespan.

Thanks! :D

Great mod! Would be cool if you could share/link this mod to http://www.citiesskylines-nation.com/ :) Thanks!

@NoOpen: This mod is compatible with proper hardness. I think they go together well, because mine increases their entire life span, and proper hardness spreads out the death period.

How will this mod go in conjunction with proper hardness (Which also edits aging), and would you suggest using them together?

This really slows down gameplay / city growth due to education. I actually kinda like it.

... dang, ages are really disregarded under the hood of this game. Whatever they want to make the system work however they want.

My crematoriums Thank you Nohealforu... :-) I was at one point having a massive die off in one of my cities.. it had 20 huge hospitals..

It helps quite a lot with the death waves because their chance of dying increases quite rapidly at the end on the default game aging speed. The dying period is spread out a couple of game years with this mod, so it's unlikely for whole groups of people to all die in the same week.

Does this fix the "Death Waves", where if you place many residential areas at once, they all die off at the same time? It would be cool if it randomized the death age a lot more to prevent your whole city from dying at once.

The approximate ages with this mod would be: at 1.25 years old they change from child to teen, at 3.75 years old they change from teen to young adult, at 7.5 years old they change from young adult to adult, and at 15 years old they retire. At 20 they start to die off.
