Tubing Facility

Tubing Facility is the name given to two different High-Tech Industrial buildings in SimCity 4. As both reference the same LTEXT file and other buildings that share names have unique LTEXT files that contain the same text, this was likely done in error.

Tubing Facility is a High-Tech Industrial Outbuilding that grows on Medium and High density Industrial Zones[1].

Outbuildings are grown by SimCity 4's Industrial Zones attached to an Anchor Lot, designed to fill out the entire zone. Outbuildings are grown last and are designed to fill the spaces between Anchor Lots and Machinery lots.

Due to this lot's large size and the fact it is an Outbuilding, it can be hard to get it to grow through normal gameplay. Forcing an Industrial Zone to grow this size (By using CTRL while zoning) will greatly increase the chances of it growing.

Reference Building

The pipes on this version of Tubing Facility appear to be based on those attached to Building N-206 at the NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California.
