How To Activate Developer Mode

Short guide on how to activate the dev mode in Cities: Skylines II.

Activating dev mode

• Go to Steam
  
• Right click Cities:Skylines II -> Properties
  
• In General, add --developerMode into the launch options.
  
• Load into your savegame -> press Tab/Home. (After a few seconds of freezing, a slightly transparent black window will pop up on the left.)

You can hide the debug window by pressing Tab again.
That's it!

Servus Siggi, ich nochmal ;)

You also like to mention the HOME key, next to TAB. But as said, be extremly cautios, its possible to ruin the savegame.

@Null.六六六 Just create a shortcut to the game's .exe and add the same argument to it.

@Tim Done, thanks.

Servus Siggi, as a recommendation, you should add, that any change in this window could potentially kill the city instantly, if the player does not know, where to click and what to click. A minority of the users will understand, that this menu is solely for testing/debugging and not for cheating/fixing issues. Plus, no support can be given from anyone, once a user did something unexpected here.
