what does the mayor do? and why doesn't anybody ever make neat powers for the mayor?
I have the same feature on my CityRPG right now, but it is more fluent than static, being that there is an ingame election yearly (24 hours).
the mayor has the power to raise taxes (income, sales, and property tax) ingame via command
he also has the ability to set the rate of welfare (citizen paychecks) and also has the ability to broadcast information across the city via command.
