Does anyone know how to remove buildings

[Staoln]

Greetings
I have a problem with already placed buildings on field 19 and 20.
On field 19, there is a small outpost, and on field 20 there is a small hut.
These buildings are really in the way for my plan to extend the fields.
Has anyone gotten rid of them?

If you cannot sell them your only option is to download Giants editor, extract the map and mod the map yourself.

Wow, it was super easy, thank you so much for the reply!

Any other way?

No other way. Have to edit the map in the editor.

Is the editor free? If so how do you get it?

I edited the Michigan map, saved it, put it back in the game, but it gets stuck on the loading screen. I wonder what other files need to be modified besides the map file itself.

Or what you messed up while editing the map?

No idea. I opened it up in editor, deleted the two buildings that were there by default and couldn’t be sold off, saved it, went back into game and nothing. Clearly, something else needs to be edited. Maybe the MOD description file/XML, but I’m not sure what.

I think you need to import the file, not open it. Just thought I would mention that.

I may have misspoke with ‘opened.’ I unzipped the folder that contains all the mod map files, found the map file, used the editor to delete the buildings, saved the file. Then I put it back into the folder it was in, compressed/zipped it back up with the same name, put it back in the mods folder. The game recognizes it as a map, allows me to choose it, but gets stuck forever loading it. Maybe there are additional files that need editing.

"Critical"

"Do Not" edit the original maps 1 or 2 with G.E. in the root folders for FS 17 & or FS 19. Will cause warnings & errors and could very likely create Lock up or a CTD.

"Warning" in Steam/Steamapps/common/Farm Simulaytor 19/Data

"Do not modify any files here. The multiplayer will not work anymore".

Down Load G.E. from the GDN web sight only. That is the official down load for G.E.. Must Log In.

https://gdn.giants-software.com/index.php

There is PDF files and videos on how to. Strongly recomend you read and study these files prior to editing maps. There is videos on YT for FS 15, 17, and 19 on how to extract and edit maps. Some good some not so good. Be cautious.

"For errors and Warnings"

After "Extracting" A Map for editing the map must be renamed. Test each edit check Documents/My Games/Farmsimulaytor2019/log.txt

Launch FS 19 (FS17) in developers mode. Tap the Tilda key and check for any errors or warnings while FS 19 is loading.

Please use "caution" and "Back Up" all files and folders prior to any editing.
