Catastrophe

Definition of Catastrophe
Catastrophe is a serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society involving widespread human, material, economic or environmental loss and impacts, which exceeds the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources.

Epidemic outbreak
An Epidemic outbreak is when one doesn't build enough doctors or hospitals to increase Health. or activate it in the catastrophe menu. It causes citizens to become sick and if not treated,will abandon their homes.

Sometimes the outbreak happens if tall residential buildings are TOO close, so you should give some space between them. Outbreaks also happen when the cemeteries aren't emptied.

Geliumium Virus
The Geliumium Virus was one of the most destructive types of disaster. It could destroy buildings, unlike the slime. The only way to stop them is to nuke them, some might survive, nuke them again

Fires
Fires are the most basic disaster in the game, fire usually occurs if one didn't build any Fire Stations near residents, However fire can also be activated in Catastrophe menu. Also if a meteor or a riot happens, it will ignite fire on buildings they hit.

A fire can destroy buildings if fire trucks don't make it in time.

Fact: If one was to build many fire stations, 10 or more firetrucks will attempt to put out one fire!

Tornado
Tornadoes go in a line in a random direction from where they start, obliterating everything in their path.

Tornado can only be activated by using Catastrophe menu, therefore there will be no Tornado caused if one doesn't use it. Whatever you do, never underestimate one, that's a dangerous way to ruin everything you've done

Radioactive Explosion
Radioactive Explosion occurs if player build a Nuclear Power Plant without supplying water on it.

This is the most dangerous catastrophe in this game. It can instantly destroy entire Village or even Small City.

To avoid this or minimizing the risks build a water tower or a water pump far away from Industrial Zones and connect it pipes to Nuclear Power Plant.

Player can also use Catastrophe Menu in top left at the game screen to deploy the explosion.

Riot
Riot occurs if the player do not maintain citizen happiness. The only way to stop a riot is to deploy a S.W.A.T unit.

Riot can lead to fire to buildings, traffic jams and town/city bankruptcy.

To minimize the risk of riot, build a S.W.A.T HQ at the center of your town/city.

also military vehicles on patrol order will remove rioters but they won't target the riot

Meteor
Meteor occurs if the player builds one or more missile silos.

Meteor leaves craters. Craters acts like a rubble, it must be bulldozed so the pollution don't affect residential buildings. Meteors also cause fires near them and cause some smaller craters in other areas

UFO
UFO occurs when the player builds one or more missile silos.

UFO is very dangerous. It causes a lot of damage to your town or city. Rocket launchers can shoot down UFOs. Player could deploy UFOs by using the catastrophe menu only if they have the Military base features.
