Players of the city building simulation game Cities: Skylines II are celebrating the release of “Bye Bye Homeless,” an unofficial mod that will automatically delete homeless people from their cities if they can’t find housing after 1.5 hours of in-game time, solving an apparent bug that flooded their cities with impossible to remove homeless people.

How is this different from real life?

The mod isn't ignoring them?

[–] sunzu@kbin.run 12 points 1 month ago

In big cities, they will just move them around different neighborhoods until people complain. Has been going on for years.

So yeah we are not quite there with the removal but they are testing their ability

I mean, having made homelessness illegal, I am sure the police will be ignoring them a bit less.
