Does a modded game need a constant internet connection?

[MVeness27]

I've searched around on the internet looking for this specific answer. Maybe someone here will know. My area has pretty bad internet. It's constantly dropping out and slowing down, and has been happening more that usual the past few weeks. C:S has quitting out of nowhere lately too, and I'm wondering if this is either because there are common periods of no internet or because I'm just subscribing to way too many assets (my machine is decent, keep in mind). All help would be appreciated!

You do not have to be constantly connected to internet to play with mods - you only need to be connected when you start the game ( load to the main menu ), after that, untill you close the game, you can play without internet connection just fine. So if your internet is out for like few minutes or hours you would probably be fine as long as you dont close the game, because once you do and you try to start it again ( without internet connection ) the mods will not load.

That is, unless you move them to some special folder - there is a way to have mods even if you are offline, basically you move them to some special local folder for mods which will allow you to boot it up even without internet connection - I did not do this so I can't tell how dificult it is or how to do it, but there are some tutorials here on steam. I would recomend searching in Cities Skylines steam forum for: ,, Playing with mods offline '' or something similar and sooner or later you will find someone explaining how to do it.

Maybe try Symlinks that will link online workshop to your offline folder?

Losing internet connection while CS runs won't cause it to crash. Something else would trigger that.
