Livability
Livability refers to the quality of life for inhabitants of an area. This is determined by aesthetics of an area, as well as the standards of living.
How is the livability indicator implemented in the Tygron Engine?
The livability indicator uses a metric to indicate the current quality of life in an area. This is determined by not only what constructions or behavior types are in that exact location, but also the surrounding area. Generally speaking, luxury, low-density housing, combined with open spaces and natural aspects are beneficial for the quality of life. Densely constructed, cheap buildings will be detrimental to the quality of life.
