HELP, I'm addicted to the workshop

[Nickvet419]

I have 294 pages of subscribed workshop items, 2932 entries. That brings me to about 6000 assets. Is there a cure for this addiction?

May I just ask, do you actually use all of that content in every city you build?
I usually find 1000 assets is more than enough for one city. So, even though I'm subscribed to a lot more than that, I only enable what I know I'm going to use.

I've only built onto one city in the past few years.. I'm sure I dont use every asset, but yes, I use most of them, which is the reason i subscribed to them in the first place.

Most likely only a few hundred, unless you plop every single building in the city. I've worked on quite a few peoples saved game with over 7,000 workshop on occasion. I've never seen over 400 assets in a city yet.

FYI, tell Loading Screen Mod to generate a report, and it'll tell you how many assets are in your city being used.

I am one of those as well. My city uses no more than 150 of the 2003 assets I sub.

remove all subscriptions and for the start use only the few i use

and then ask yourself every time you want to hit the "Subscribe" button if you really really really need this mod.

And then stop subscribing to "nice to have" mods as soon as you have 50 mods

You know..... to be honest, if I had a machine with more power, I would be EXACTLY in your shoes.... no lie!! ATM my machine can only handle around 80 mods & 2500 assets, buuuuut I have over 8200hrs ( ) logged in Skylines, and I won't be stopping anytime soon...

I totally get it....

usage report = 884 buildings assets, 822 props/decals 79 trees, 176 vehicles, 16 citizens, 45 nets. so ya, there are a few items I dont use. Good idea using the Loading Screen Mod report to see what I forgot to use.

Oh, I need all the mods that I'm subscribed to.. It all the assets that I could filter out.

lol.. I used to just keep the game running 24/7 because it took so long to load, if it didn't fail.
I recently got a new Aurora R8 and went went from a 30+ min loading time to a 10 min loading time. So... now I feel like I can x out of the game get more stuff that I need for my build and get back to building. ya, it makes it worse...
