Description
Allows to edit spawn points, sub buildings + more in Asset Editor. Carefully read description before using!



This is a mod for modders. If you're a regular player, you won't need it.
This mod is essential for making buildings with sub-buildings, multi-track stations and airports.
For example, without this mod you won't be able to make an airport with all functional gates, a multi track train station with all functional platforms for regional trains etc.

Alpha release means that this mod may change significantly in the future and has some unfinished functionality

I already used it to help making some polular workshop assets such as
Modular International Airport
European Main Station,
East-European Train Station,
Incheon International Airport,
Joak's International Airport and more.

WARNING: this is a higly advanced tool. I'm not to blame if you cut your own head with it.

Don't forget to check 'Load existing props & decorations' on making new buildings for spawn points and sub buildings to load!

Spawn points are available in markers section of props menu. They don't add up to total props count. For passenger stations you will need 'Spawn Point Target' and 'Spawn Point Position'. They can be placed at the same position. But I recommend to use auto-placement instead (one of panel's buttons).

This mod provides a number of buttons and an options entry. Please familiarize yourself with them before using:
- 'Reload sub-buildings' Places sub-buildings according to m_editPrefabInfo
- 'Auto-place spawn points' Automatically places spawn points for passenger stations and airports.
- 'Bulldoze Ped. Connections' Bulldozes all existing pedestrian paths (pink ones)
- 'Make All Segments Editable' Allows to bulldoze existing runways, train station tracks etc. with bulldozer tool
- 'Reload decorations' Places decorations and spawn points according to m_editPrefabInfo

I'll add more decriptions & documentation later :)

Conflicts:
- Prop Probability Changer. Just unsub/disable it. Advanced Buildings Editor already includes that functionality.

This mod uses awesome detours C# library[github.com] by cope. Without it, this mod would've been impossible to make.

Feel free to comment.

i need a mod to change those purple lanes so i can make train station working with example 3 trains at one time

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..

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.

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
