Recent Errors
Instead of polluting the comments, figure i'll bring the conversation here for history and more space to work.

Ok, Here's what I did and what I have for you:

1. I did a wipe reload. I validated with Steam and only 1 file was missing, the Launcher MSI. I delete that and use non-Paradox Launcher.

2. I moved my Local folder out of the way so Skylines had to create that space fresh.

3. I subscribed to this mod and Harmony it references per your instructions.

4. I started Skylines and Enabled the mod, and created a new map.

I enabled Harmony first, so it will be ready when your mod loads.
Just to be sure, I restarted skylines so it all loads together and is enabled.

Skylines throws the error when the mod is enabled and on map load.

Here are the results of the test:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1xT9KVW_oz3xcfDJ0uQ6YoIPd3eEejm06

This is a folder that contains the output_log.txt, and a few extras:

2 screenshots of the error as it occurred in game, and the oddity of the name in Content Manager.

Skylines.txt is a file list of my Skylines installation files, it is totally clean save for non-Paradox Launcher.

mods.txt is the 255710 Steam Workshop folder as Steam installed them I have no other mods or content selected to be installed. Just these.

Local.txt is my local Skylines content folder after everything ran.

Just glancing at the log makes me think a file is missing that's not getting distributed, Maybe it works for folks who already had it but an update didn't include it so new users are not getting it? Just my 2 cents analysis.

Anyway, hope this helps. Thanks.

I have to say, that was absolutely brilliant work! With the info you've provided, I've managed to track down the issue - one of the mod's files wasn't downloading properly for you.

I've just re-uploaded it to (hopefully) force a Steam update from my end. Please unsub/resub again and let me know if that's resolved the issue for you.

Thank you, it works like a charm now.

I've done some basic testing, only thing I notice was the options for "Random Spawn Levels" and "New Building Historical" were not sticking. Wasn't sure if I needed to click something to save the settings or not, so, could be operator error. (i.e. me.)

Also, I don't 100% trust this map as well, it's a legacy map, and there are other issues on it like boats don't show up anymore. I'll do further testing when I get a chance in a more reliable way.

I am hoping to get the variety of styles and levels while using the monuments. One of them maxes land value and that pushes everything to 5, so, that makes this mod attractive for some of the asset sets I want to use.

Anyway, Thanks for getting it up and running!

The Random Spawn Levels and New Building Historical settings don't need to be saved - can you reproduce and post the output log from immediately afterwards (no need to exit the game - just apply setting, close the window, then re-open)?

Done. I am not confident it's not an external influence.

The map's history is, I keep a copy of the old 1.0 Skylines, and I will sometimes play it 'really vanilla' for the challenge. I was quite proud of my self, I actually got the traffic and train systems to work. Then I wanted to upgrade Skylines it to the modern game and slowly add DLC content.

(All my mod tests are with Airports, I don't use any mods on the old version, they won't work)

I only had FPS Booster, Loading Screen and Daylight Classic mods with their dependencies running on it to make it feel the same.

After some restabilization work in the city, I got the map working on Airports, and started adding areas, but then the boats stopped working and I realized something in the upgrade messed up the edge connections.

For the test:

So, the log contains some of that mush, so, I just wanted to point all that out so it would make more sense what's in the log.

For this test, I am running only ABLC and Harmony from the workshop after your update.

What I was doing was testing one of the districts and changing the levels. Now that I think about it, I will include that map. I never added any DLC content, so, it's still vanilla (Airports)

I was using this old map as it's the most developed map I have right now, I lost some of my others by accident. I've been collecting mods and assets to build a much greater detailed map. I've been moving them off of the Workshop folder since that rips Skylines apart from the inside.

Thanks!!

EDIT: I used the same drive share, I moved things over.

Thanks again - great info, and I was able to work out what was going wrong thanks to your save.

I've just posted an update which should fix that issue.

The level control panel won't show up for me do you know how to fix it?
algernon  [developer] Sep 24, 2023 @ 6:39pm 
Is the mod active and enabled in Skyve?

It means nothing without the broader context. Please post your full output log.
