And this is reset every 15 cycles and in the first 8 cycles it re-populates the policeStationMap before performing the crimeScan. (https://github.com/lo-th/3d.city/blob/5827c3be180c6b7b39076d...). So a cursory investigation it doesn't look good and any policeStation needs to be within 3 to have any effect. What the simulation should do is never clear the policeStationMap. The policeStationMap is constantly cooling and diffusing and it is only by refreshing where the police stations are is how new energy is introduced into the system (policeStationMap). The simulation doesn't even need to reset the spot on the map when a Tile.POLICESTATION is removed because the value will on its own cool. As an added bonus the

Here is where it is computed in the source: https://github.com/lo-th/3d.city/blob/6d206e4df362444d4c2a36... An initial glance suggests reducing the populationDensityMap is the real solution (aka don't put so many houses next to each other, but spread it out?)? Feel free to dig into it and reply below with findings.
