Change Log (Compare to Original)

Bug Fix

Usage Guide & FAQ

This section is addressing some feature request I see in original mod.

Q: I want to control the build not to be upgraded.
A: You should mark the building as historical building.

Q: I want to control the build only at certain level.
A: You can use Advanced Building Level Control mod for this. Further more, this mod supports controlling historical buildings too.

Q: I want to rename a district.
A: I am also investigating in this, however I believe this may not be possible or I need to modify some base code that have greater side effect. Instead of support renaming, I added Copy style. You can select existing style and make a copy with new name then delete the old one.

Q: I want to restrict to building list to what in my District Style only
A: Currently the mod do not modify in game logic, as the game logic will only use District style if those meeting the criteria like matching building type/size/level. This can cause Vanilla building show up instead. I am also looking into the possibility of enforcement but this may have to modify game logic. So it won't be happen anytime soon if it is possible.

Q. My district style is not showing up in game or content manager
A. Check are you using Skyve, if yes also double check you have the style enabled in assets, Skyve manage all mods/assets loading now and not even Content Manager can see it

Notes
I am a programmer myself but I have never programmed in C#, so there will be quite a bit learning curve for me to adapt to this development environment. So use at your own risk as I can't gurantee I won't break anything

At this stage I am taking this as a side hobby as I see original mod owner haven't made any update recently. So depends on how busy I am I may not able to be confirm fully committed into improving this mod for now. So maybe no feature request for now. My first priority while have time is to do bug fix first, once I solved most bugs issues and it consider stable then I can consider feature request. Feel free to report bugs for this mod.

Feature Request

  • Enforce Building to District Style only
  • District Style summary

Known Bug issues

High Priority
  • Removing district style does not save. Looking into data serialization logic
  • Changing district style can despawn historical building. I look into is it default in game logic behavior or cause by my mod. if it is default game logic behavior then i won't fix it for now. There is a plan to re-do some default in game logic but it will take times

Not important
  • Upon loading save game when you are in game (not from menu) there is change it crash the District Style Editor Panel. However as mod like 81 tiles are disabling load save game, this bug probably have no chance to trigger for most people. (It seem to be known as second loading issues of Cities Skylines. and it is normal)

Is there any way to have Vanilla/Default (in my case non-European, based on map theme) and European buildings in the same district? Cuz as soon as I add the European district theme via this mod just so I can add some European buildings scattered among the vanilla ones, all the vanilla ones disappear. Any way to make that not happen?

Please update the mod, there's a bunch of assets missing from the district style editor!

It's not working, does anyone know an alternative mod?

It's not working anymore

@jk2l - can you update this mod to support the country side content?

I don’t get how this would cause a bricked save? This is the first time I’ve seen something like that be reported and your conclusion was this mod.

Honestly, knowing your background I don’t trust you enough (but I’m sure with a little bit of troubleshooting you can get your game up and running) to determine if this mod is causing an issue or not. Would need more reports.

When you search the discord for messages from his username, it returns exactly one result, in the welcome channel. That is the information I have available and it is the information I have formed an opinion with.

The mod page should be edited so that it doesn't declare these bugs are "high priority" and being worked on if they are not prioritized at all and not being worked on. My save is screwed because of this bug, and it's been a known major issue for 2 years. Either remove the city-wide function entirely or fix it. Leaving it up and broken isn't cool.

Don't use it. Unfortunately I cannot help because the author has been inactive, however he has helped in the past. And now I banned you because you're bad energy and I don't want you in my server regardless. I already told you that the author has been inactive and for you to DM him but you refused to follow my instructions and instead decided to check out the author's messages and failed to find he has helped people in the past.

DO NOT USE THE CITY-WIDE STYLE SETTING UNDER THE CITY INFORMATION PANEL.

You can NOT change your selections in there, they will be re-selected next time you load the save. This deletes ANY buildings placed outside of a district with an applied style, INCLUDING historical buildings, that aren't the selected city-wide style for that type of zoning (i.e. if you apply College Park as city-wide, ANY residential lots that ARENT in a district with a different style applied will be removed.)

This DESTROYS your city unless you district and style every single thing you place. It cannot be undone. It is a known issue, and it has not been addressed in 2 years.

Additionally, I got banned from the "support" discord for pointing out the mod creator has not even sent a single message to the discord and thus I would be surprised if they bothered to fix this mod after two years of silence.

Buildings don't spawn when style is applied :( Some do spawn but it is random so I have lots of residential zones and high demand for them but nothing is building on them. That's a pity cuz I really hoped this mod would work :(
