Ploppable RICO Revisited 2.5.6

New in 2.4:

• Configurable cost overrides.
  
• Option to automatically lock the building level of plopped growables (requires Advanced Building Level Control).
  
• Add mod/author/local settings selection menu to settings panel (to see settings other than the currently active one).

New in 2.3.5:

• Growable options now have Plop the Growables behaviour enabled by default.
  
• Add warning if Plop the Growables is also subscribed. This is a warning only - both mods can still be used together, if their settings are consistent!
  
• Improve mod conflict and Harmony error notifications.

New in 2.3.4:

• Add options to turn on or off confirmation for bulldozing and/or auto-demolish (building over) RICO ploppables.

New in 2.3:

• Integrate 'Plop the Growables'-style functionality; separately selectable for RICO and non-RICO buildings.
  
• 'Plop the Growables' is no longer required or recommended; using both is possible, but may give inconsistent results unless your settings are aligned - simply disable ALL relevant options in this mod.

Allows RICO (Residential, Industrial, Commercial, Office) buildings larger than 4x4 to be placed in the game. Want a functional and realistically-sized large apartment tower, mall/department store, or imposing office building? Want that custom building you downloaded to be more than just a tourist attraction? Then this is for you!

This is a continuation of AJ3D’s excellent Ploppable RICO. The list of improvements and extensions to the original has now gotten too long to include in this description, but a summary list is available[github.com].

Note: Don't have both this and the old RICO mod subscribed at the same time. Disabling is not sufficient. Choose one or the other.

Safe to subscribe/unsubscribe at any time (noting that if you unsubscribe after using it, then any RICO buildings you’ve plopped will lose their RICO functionality and will revert back to being basic decorations/parks/unique buildings).

---

Be sure to check out the mod's wiki page[github.com] for documentation and links to video guides.

Many suitable assets on the workshop already come with RICO settings included, and either this or the original mod is required to make them actually function as intended (without a RICO mod you’ll still be able to place them in-game, but they’ll just be a park or tourist attraction - not apartments/factories/shops/offices).

This mod adds a “Ploppable RICO” icon to the toolbar (to the right of the “Policies” icon). Clicking on that will bring up a menu from which you can select RICO buildings to place; the “Settings” tab enables you to create your own local custom settings, either modifying existing ones or creating new ones from scratch.

The mod also adds a "Ploppable RICO" icon in the top-right of every building's information panel that will take you directly to the settings for that building.

A guide to the mod's options panel[github.com], including descriptions of each option's functionality, is available on the wiki.

After selecting a building in the leftmost panel (the icons and search bar at the top can help narrow down what you’re looking for), use the “Add Local” button in the centre panel to create a new custom config for a building (edit the details in the rightmost panel). After making your changes, be sure to press the “Save” button in the centre panel, otherwise your changes will be lost! The safest way to apply changes is to exit the game and reload your save.

Buildings already placed will have their RICO settings updated on the next game load, or when the 'Save and Apply' button in the settings panel for that building is clicked. As the changes may not be recognised by other mods until a game restart, it is recommended that you be careful with this option (save a backup of your city before using it and check afterwards to make sure that it worked as you thought it should).

---

As of version 2.4.7, Ploppable RICO buildings will not be collapsed by natural disasters. This is to prevent several fundamental issues and bugs caused by the Natural Disasters DLC not being written to take into account the existence of Ploppable RICO buildings (which is fair enough, really).

Huge thanks to AJ3D, the original Ploppable RICO author, and to everyone who contributed to its design, coding, and updates (most notably boformer, Tailgunner, and especially BloodyPenguin). Thanks also to Boogieman Sam for the UI work, and thanks to TPB for the original Plop the Growables mod.

Thaks to everyone who's helped out with the translations.

This mod uses Harmony[github.com] version 2.2 by Andreas Pardeike via the Cities Harmony mod by boformer.
