1. Choose an experiment
The lesson changes only one economic parameter.
Ready to run.

What changes when
one policy changes?
Run a deterministic, matched-seed experiment. Both cities begin with the same mixed-economy policies; only the selected policy lever changes. Each experiment is independent of your saved game.
2. Observe the results
Control = original mixed preset; Treatment = one revised policy parameter. A positive change is not necessarily a benefit; inspect debt, affordability and service quality together.
Choose a lesson, then run it to see modeled changes.
Reproducibility and modeling caveats
No model run yet.
3. Discuss the tradeoffs
Where did economic conditions improve? Which indicators worsened? Can a real policy claim be justified from this synthetic simulation alone?
Important: The model was not experimentally validated on real cities. The differences reflect its programmed assumptions, not causal estimates or recommendations for public policy.
