Cities: Skylines updated with new map tools and tons of fixes

Cities: Skylines continues to get better with this latest major patch. It brings new tools for map makers and tons of bug fixes.



It's amazing that we have such a game on Linux, and it certainly fills a city building gap I once had in my gaming needs. Really great to see it have such great support after release with new features for free too.

New stuff:

QuoteLandscaping tools - Tools to edit terrain heights (Shift, Level, Smooth, Slopes), 3 brush sizes and 3 strengths are available in the option bar.
Paths - Paths were moved from Decorations to Landscaping Paths
Trees - Trees were moved from the Props Decorations group to Landscaping Trees
Rocks - Added rocks objects
Water Structures - contains Floodwalls, Quays and Canals

Decoration service renamed to Parks&Plazas
Parks - The Standard parks
Plazas - The Plazas style parks
Others parks - The parks which don't belong in the 2 categories above
Tourism & Leisure - After Dark DLC only, contains all the park assets from After Dark
Winter Parks - Snowfall DLC only, contains all the park assets from Snowfall and only shows if you are in a Winter map

New categories for Unique Buildings
The Environment panel of the Map editor now contains several terrain props such as ruined/abandoned buildings and rocks.
The roads, paths, tunnels and tracks now have a new button in the Option panel where you can select snapping and straight or curve type. The button has 3 states and can be used to cycle through 3 preset heights for the elevation step when using page up and page down.
New steam achievements implemented
Default maps updated with new environment props
Dam placement shows terrain topography
