i need a mod to change those purple lanes so i can make train station working with example 3 trains at one time
Nahzmerhs Aug 13, 2023 @ 12:04pm 
It's probably me, but: I changed an asset slightly (underground metro station tracks instead of underground train tracks), saved it under a different name, but when I used it in the game it turned out I can't connect metrotracks to the station metrotracks I added in the asset. Did I do anything wrong when saving the asset? Did I forget to address a certain application before saving the asset? Do I have to apply a certain action before saving it? Thanks in advance for answering.

Can I also ask... Does this mod reveal any spawn points and paths for Financial district DLC? I don't seem to be able to get any for the building templates..
macluk Apr 18, 2023 @ 11:39am 
I get plenty of NullReference exceptions when trying to use spawn points recently.
Or when trying to make any changes in asset editor when this mod is active.
Is it incompatible with something?
The Blood Eagle Mar 30, 2023 @ 5:14am 
Just a heads up the compatibility report still says that this is the deprecated mod.
BloodyPenguin  [author] Mar 21, 2023 @ 2:24pm 
Updated by incorporated the changes from the other version :)

I have ahted modding this game just because of the about of broken mods that are dependencies for other.....
Jean Michel Dec 14, 2022 @ 6:33pm 
Sorry, you're right, this other mod is part of the list of broken mods.
Thanks

@Jean Michel - pedestrian paths marker (pink path) isn't from this mod. It's from [More Network Stuff], perhaps you just got confused there.
I actually still have this in my setup in all my recent asset creation process, will have to look into it if it's really broken by latest update.
Jean Michel Nov 18, 2022 @ 4:27am 
I confirm that it no longer works.
I can't find the markers for pedestrian paths anymore
Thanks for fixing it
bram.warrick Oct 23, 2022 @ 12:11pm 
Compatibility Report is saying this is broken and to uninstall. I'm having difficulties opening the editor once I enabled this mod.

Can someone confirm if this mod is working with the latest edition of CL? Is there something I'm supposed to do other than subscribe and enable this, before I can use the new editor?
dan5tr4n63r Oct 6, 2022 @ 1:10pm 
Is it possible with this mod to make an asset building that has road all around it to align with the separate road you place down?...i made a church/graveyard with one way road all around( the front portion doesn't have that one way road) and want to connect it to a normal road so that cars that want to use graveyard can go in the back..hence why one road...If someone knows..please respond.

Hi, what is the differce between "Spawn point position 2" vs "Spawn point position" and Spawn point target" and target 2?
ctcatuga Jun 22, 2022 @ 7:38pm 
I'm trying to edit a vanilla asset - specifically the volley ball park - to make it a smaller 2x2 version without the parking lots or picnic tables, and I keep getting all of the error messages below. I tried editing other assets - vanilla and user - to see if it still happens, and I constantly get these messages, especially the one about the prop line tool, but anarchy is not even enabled...

Also, when I use the editor to make it a 2x2, the part of the asset outside of the reduced area does not disappear, it still stays. How do I get every part outside of the new 2x2 grid to disappear? THank you in advance!

@Tingstead which spawn points are you trying to adjust or add?
Some you can change with this Mod,
I have found others require using the Spawn Point Editor to move them.

And yes, the 3rd error message is a correct true statement, not changeable via this mod.

Trying to create a cargo train station using your Cargo Train Terminal Template, got the following errors:

Clear spawn points:

Hope you can find some time to look into this – thank you in advance

@BloodyPenguin Thanks BP. If you could find the time to see why the spawn points won't reset on my small park maintenance I'd be eternally grateful. Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2386033407

@ctcatuga 2 truck drop offs are not supported by Cargo Station AI
@[OG]CombatMedic02 I didn't test it recently but I guess I at least need to add support for the new stuff added by Airports DLC
[OG]CombatMedic02 Feb 25, 2022 @ 11:07am 
Does this mod still work? I was hoping to use it to fix the spawn points on my Small Park Maintenance mod but I don't see the markers? The Clear Spawn Points button doesn't seem to do anything and when I try to place one of the vehicle spawn points it tells me that I can't place any more points of this type.
ctcatuga Feb 11, 2022 @ 12:19am 
I had the same problem as Yamaryl. I was trying to make 2 cargo truck drop off locations into the cargo station, but only 1 drop off locations is able to be saved. This was a while ago and I gave up thinking it was something I was doing but thought I would share my issue after seeing a similar problem.
Amaryl Nov 1, 2021 @ 4:52am 
I currently try to make a custom cargo train station, but infortunately truck spawn/despawn positions are not saved. When I reload my asset these point position are set to 0*0*0. Any idea ?
vsvg.scattered Oct 3, 2021 @ 2:13pm 
Ahh, also needs "More Network Stuff" and "Prefab Hook" and then the Cargo paths show up under decorations. Now tp figure out tweaking them.
There is this great Double Track Cargo Station where the Trains outgun the Trucks.
ALesserMan Sep 2, 2021 @ 10:15pm 
so...do i just place tracks, and props down, and hope that all the tracks i add will be used (at the same time) by incoming/outgoing trains? where's the documentation on how to use the "Advanced Building Editor"?? Yes, I need to use the asset editor. I see these spawn point position and target, but...what to do with those? do i plop those down at either ends of the tracks? if so, why don't i see markers on the existing track provided with the template. i am so confused right now.
Nickayz Jun 15, 2021 @ 11:55am 
@bmaijen
You need the More Network Stuff Mod: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=512314255 to place them. Works only in Asset Editor.
bmaijen Jun 15, 2021 @ 11:35am 
thanks for the mod! those purple lines, how to edit or move or create those?
i noticed i can place spawn points and the citicens seem to be able to move correctly but still wondering ?
JJ Jun 4, 2021 @ 5:44pm 
Check out my collection of complete Skylines modding categories. The collection is in progress but It's looking good let me know what you think: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2505067963
Nickayz Jun 1, 2021 @ 3:53pm 
Thanks a lot for the update! This will save so much time without having to work around the errors!
AmiPolizeiFunk May 20, 2021 @ 12:58am 
thx for updates
Holysword May 19, 2021 @ 9:59am 
Good to see that you're still working on the mod!
However, I think that a documentation would be very helpful. I'm struggling with a very simple cargo station design, which always end up with trucks stuck in some zigzag trajectory, mysteriously sinking underground, ignoring spawn/despawn points, trains spawning in regular tracks instead of cargo tracks, behaviour changing when you connect other nearby tracks... a whole havoc which is hard to assess with pure trial-and-error (specially considering the loading time that each trial has...). Understanding how those things should work would be a great help!

Captain Toof May 16, 2021 @ 7:24am 
Oh, a question from https://www.reddit.com/r/CitiesSkylinesModding/comments/ndnpfp/modasset_request_custom_stoppocket_mechanics/
It is possible? Yep, that's road type asset to edit, but why not?
BloodyPenguin  [author] May 16, 2021 @ 7:22am 
Forgot to mention:
Added: When net tool is active, cargo connection direction is displayed
@Captain Toof I've got to check the comments, I see there is a plenty of them. If there are issues that I can confirm, I will resolve them ASAP
Captain Toof May 16, 2021 @ 7:16am 
Oh finally, you've descended to us! :D:
BloodyPenguin  [author] May 16, 2021 @ 7:15am 
UPDATE 5 (16/5/2021)
Added: auto place spawn points on ferry path
Fixed: Now pedestrian paths, ferry paths & cargo connections are made editable too
Fixed: Spawn target is placed with an offset from spawn point when doing auto-placement
Captain Toof Mar 16, 2021 @ 3:40am 
There is 18 max or something as I can see...
Also we still waiting, dammit...

Hello, I have an inquiry! I'm working on the Seoul Express Bus Terminal and I need about 15x26 size. Can I make a wide-sized set using this mode?
Stelio Kimbos May 6, 2020 @ 5:33pm 
well i tried diferent ways and i cant made a custom station i cant built tracks or something out of the limit. someone tried? the option of "make all elements editable" seems not work properly. if someone know how made custom station in asset editor will be great :). i think not my problem but if somoene can try will be helpfull.
Sorrt for my english and thanks Bloodypenguin for this mod.
Stelio Kimbos May 6, 2020 @ 1:15pm 
well i tried a lot of things and nothing. Its like "make all segmentes edit" doesnt work. Someone that can build a custom station could tell me how?, because i can't all tracks i use are deleted when i save it. if soomeone could tell me other mods (i think there isn't) will be nice. Thanks. or even if the mod work for you tell me and try to disable all my mods again. Thanks.
Stelio Kimbos May 5, 2020 @ 8:10am 
@Captain Toof : are u sure that the problem is about this mod? i had another mods in asset editor and people have the same problem, i dont know if is for this mod or other mod.
Captain Toof Apr 28, 2020 @ 2:03am 
Can't save any of the attached props.
mjm92150 Apr 26, 2020 @ 1:10pm 
@Brandon : I just saw your underground and is very nice. Perhaps you can ask those who mad a lot of vehicle (bus, train, metro, subway, bus...) as i.e. REVO, CRISGAMES, SVENBERLIN....
For the other thing, I do not know.
Brandon Apr 26, 2020 @ 12:32pm 
Hey Penguin, I know you're busy, but would really appreciate some more info on how the spawn points work, and whether or not it's possible to manually edit the coordinates of them using ModTools or something? I posted on Reddit, but haven't had any success there either. https://www.reddit.com/r/CitiesSkylinesModding/comments/g5qkds/help_with_multistop_transit_buildings_asset_editor/
Nickayz Apr 23, 2020 @ 12:27am 
When I'm trying to save an asset with lights, I get this error. Without lights or when I turn ABE off it is working fine:

Trying to get this work with new SH helicopter stops, but when selecting "auto spawn points", it removes them. Even when adding two spawn/target point combos, it still only connects the line in game to where the spawn point was in the original built-in asset. Ideas?
biotoxin Apr 18, 2020 @ 11:15pm 
Does this work on cruise terminals? Ships seems to spawn half way on land and get stuck
Captain Toof Apr 7, 2020 @ 8:50am 
Hello, the update is soon, right?
Stelio Kimbos Jun 19, 2019 @ 6:27pm 
i saw people asking about spawns points(@Angelhearth), i have the same questions, if someone can tell me where find this information could be nice. i spent a lot of time creating and trying, leave edit, try again... and difdnt get perfomance my stations. Help please and thank you.
Rena May 24, 2019 @ 11:22am 
I wasn't able to add those either, to a commercial building. I was able to add some "cargo connection" points, but this made the game completely refuse to load the building (I couldn't even edit it). So, don't do that!
hero9802 Apr 12, 2019 @ 8:16am 
Sorry to ask some new function, but I have to tell you.
I can't add new truck spawn/dispawn point at post office assets. Would you mind make it possible...?
[Delta ²k5] Jan 29, 2019 @ 3:53am 
Hey buddy! :) I hope you are fine with your job and life here in germany!

I finally found some time to create stuff again and I got a kind of request:

The last time I looked into the asset editor (using this mod ofc) I discovered that there is just one type of entrance available for buildings.
I know that the stadiums from the stadium DLC have two additional types here: "entrance only" and "exit only".

I'm currently working on an airport which will have in best case the exit on the lower portion and the entrance on the upper portion (so one road at +9m and one at ground level) - so these kind of triggers/spawn points/props would be great for this case!

Maybe you could take a look at it when you find some spare time ;)

Best regards
