The only issue right now is a Heng gate or two being locked and not opened or guarded. I'll be looking into it

Still looking into the locked gates issue. I've got half of it figured out. Assign Empire Gate Guard residents to Heng, but now I need to find a way to point them to those specific gates.

The Heng gates issue has been resolved. The solution was to change the faction options within the town options for Heng, specifically the resident Empire Gate Guard, from having 5 "spawning" to 8.

The next goal for this project is to take a look at the residents lists and see that the most important characters spawn and possibly reduce the number of people. When you merge two overhaul mods like this, some of the more "VIP" characters of the overhauls might not get the spotlight they deserve. Also, while I love having these massive cities, they don't need massive populations. There's a couple of solutions to this that I can think of at my skill level with FCS. First, check the building to resident numbers and adjust carefully. Second, cut back the number of squads that spawn in general until the homeless population is reduced but not non-existent

That was one goal of merging these two mods, to not merge specific parts of Cities and Towns Rework so the population doesn't get up to, I don't know, 1300 in Heng on a 1x population size. It's technically possible to just make a patch to tie them together using the in-game editor, but that doesn't address the overpopulation and honestly makes the towns too big. The simple edits this mod needed after being compiled with FCS made this possible

I think even 400-600 population is pretty dang big

The next update addresses that goal of this project in a different way. Instead of going through the resident lists, the zone files will be updated so the residents match the cities as intended originally by this mod.

Doing this will also address the issue with Heng.
