Take the de-zone tool, and delete the road with it, make sure it deletes zones and not buildings

The road will stay and the airport zone under the road will be deleted, fixing the issue

[last plaza]

Thanks!

[hybrid wren]

No problem man

[sharp gorge]

I have a 4gb device and runs fine on 700 plugins

[high dawn]

nice

you should try 2000+

[rancid snow]

really?

[ebon harbor]

wait, 56 plugins is small?

[median apex]

Hey, I've been having trouble with workshop purchases. I think it may be a problem with my os not being compatible.

If anyone wants to know, I use Linux on my phone.

Kaylx to be precise.

[cyan axle]

Corrupted city report:
When specific id changed its type from bus stop to any building type,it makes the city corrupted.

Oh boy,i need to change the targets for my spawner so my plugin user didn't corrupt their city.

[high dawn]

wait what

[normal frigate]

I mean, yeah

[high dawn]

itp major error

ignore the video on top

[fresh fractal]

whenever I create a new region, something similar shows up

[PC]

Aftermath of continuing or just restarting, it gets automatically renamed ”stuckenborstell” in both cases. (windows 10)

only for the large worlds.

like as in, Even Bigger.

[normal frigate]

Game runs out of memory generating the map

That's why

[fresh fractal]

how can it run out of memory it has 4 bloody gigs of ram to spare or 6 when I close down most of my day to day apps (and remain only with steam, Task Manager, chrome, discord and well, theotown) and 10 of memory on the tiny C drive (not my fault it's uncool and only works on the C drive when I have 800 left on the D

[normal frigate]

Because Java does not have access to all that memory

[fresh fractal]

how do I increase its access?

or lemme guess, I can't.

[normal frigate]

https://www.google.com/search?q=increase+java+heap+space+windows+10

[fresh fractal]

AKA

take the client>JVM file in theotown's steam JRE thing and edit that value (while the file doesn't have any readability with anything I use)-

[normal frigate]

Or you can provide a launch argument

-Xmx2G

[fresh fractal]

oh

neat

also

how do I do the

launch options thing?

[normal frigate]

its in steam

advanced properties or whatso

[fresh fractal]

I went there but like

remember the save folder thing?

I can't find how to do it

now I pray

cause I did the xmx thing

[normal frigate]

just google how to pass an environment variable through steam to the game

[fresh fractal]

I provided 4GB

it didn't work

[normal frigate]

on linux, it looks something like

LANG is the environment variable

and -Xms4G is the launch argument

[fresh fractal]

so I have to do for my environment thing

user.home=”D:\Theotown”

and then add the rest of my command

right?

[normal frigate]

It should probably be

[fresh fractal]

oh wait you're on linux

I'm on windows ;-;

[normal frigate]

USERPROFILE="D:" %command% -Xmx2G

or something like that

[fresh fractal]

that caused steam to crash. luvly.

but thanks i guess

[lavish violet]

Does anyone's TT freezes when generating a new region?

I have an updated 64-bit Java, and yet the game breaks when I do this

[rocky tulip]

It does, just wait a few minutes

It's creating the region so just be patient

[bronze vine]

when you just tap on file manager in the game and tap on import and select files or folder

and i have a problem high

[rocky tulip]

Try installing java

[sick tusk]

Hello, can anyone help me? I think I encountered a bug. My moon colony's waste is stuck at 50% and the recycle station does not process any garbage. Help pls

[rocky tulip]

Build and incinerator or a landfill

[keen shard]

Welp, it happened again for the 3hd time
A random nuke explosion in my city

I have no nuke power plant, no missile silo (except for DSA nuke)

[loud lily]

Go to settings and turn off auto disaster

[keen shard]

I've already done that before and another explosion (this current explosion) still happens

[sick tusk]

Landfill and incinerator can't be built on the moon

[rocky tulip]

Check the plugins you have

[rocky tulip]

Oh, then you shouldn't care about it

[keen shard]

I have this plugin where it adds this nuke testing building
It significantly increase income

[rocky tulip]

Try removing it

[keen shard]

alr

[cyan axle]

Friend had this problem

[high dawn]

why is this a thing

[left flower]

If this doesn't work https://www.google.com/search?q=increase+java+heap+space+windows+10

[velvet belfry]

Or if you are using more up-to-date java vers, add -Xms4G -Xmx4G (change the 4G part to the amount of memory you wish to use) to the launch args (look at the convo of a few days on how to)

[bronze vine]

I already solved the problem, it was necessary to add allocated memory in the java settings

saved my 1845 plugin

[bronze vine]

change the allocated memory for java in the java settings, well, or look on the Internet how to increase its memory so that it is easier

[upbeat copper]

can someone help me everytime i try to make a new region it crashes idk why

[left flower]

If you downloaded that you can restart

[loud lily]

I didnt get my login gems today or yesturday. On Friday I logged in at 11 am and yesturday i tried at 7 pm. Today i tried at 6 am but nothing.

[normal frigate]

Like the option to redeem or did it reset back to day 1?

[loud lily]

No option to redeem. Just the ads

My understanding from before was we got it each day if we were connected to wifi. But both days i was but it didnt work

[normal frigate]

Yes, it checks for internet being available and checks for playtime if it's more than 5 minutes?

Hm, but that shouldn't matter

Hm

It should work

@loud lily are you able to reach this

https://data.theotown.com/time

[loud lily]

i just went to eat and checked in and i was able to claim rewards. But its really weird cause it didnt let me claim yesturday or today morning. and it didnt reset for some reason?

and i usually play everyday for a couple of minutes or hours

[normal frigate]

It resets after 3 days of inactivity

I'll attribute the only reason for your daily rewards being unavailable being unstable network connection to time servers.

[loud lily]

oh i didnt know that

[left flower]

Is it a translation error?

[jaunty hamlet]

all of those having the same description is intended, but it is a translation error, since "kumtaşı fayans" translates to sandstone tiles, and description is supposed to say something about decorative ground
you may discuss translations in #translations

[plush bronze]

hello, I bought the game on steam but after a while it stops downloading a message tells me "error writing to disk"

I have already tried to restart my steam or my PC but x it does not work

[rocky tulip]

Make sure your hard drive has enough space for the game

Also, make sure any antivirus software is not blocking the download

[plush bronze]

I have enough space and my antivirus is disabled

it still does not work

[neat current]

Why I cant remove my metro tunnel?

[velvet belfry]

#translations

[rancid snow]

sorry my mistake

[loud lily]

Maybe try again later? The game is having a few problems right now. <3

[velvet belfry]

serious doubts on that front

[normal frigate]

@velvet belfry the game working later or...?

[velvet belfry]

Them being a hacker

[normal frigate]

Fair enough

[minor gyro]

This has been happening to me for a while now, everytime i download a plugin, the game crashed and i am booted out of the game

[mighty tulip]

1. What device you are?
2. From where you have the game?
3. Send a screenshot of the error

[minor gyro]

1.im on ipad
2.Appstore
3.im not sure how i would do that

[mighty tulip]

Well how can I help you if I don't know what error you have

[rocky tulip]

Can you send the log.txt and the crash.txt files

So the devs can inspect what went wrong

[autumn sphinx]

Help!! My launch station isn't getting supplies. Ive got it surrounded by drills. I tried moving it into the middle of my ind. Zone and still nothing. Its updated.

[mighty tulip]

Ptag supply

[subtle python]

I couldn't find any tags matching that name!

[mighty tulip]

Ptag supplies

[subtle python]

Want to get to know how to get your DSA supplies? Make sure to build oil based industries near your DSA launchpad that way you can get the supplies as soon as possible. Just note that it will still likely take a bit of time!

[mighty tulip]

Where is the bug? You need to put all characters correctly

[normal frigate]

think you forgot to prepend cr if you're making a custom region

[thorny musk]

yawn sounds

[hybrid wren]

Is it a school?

[jaunty hamlet]

yes

[jaunty hamlet]

what's the bug

the school, or that section of the school is full

[glass yew]

Does anyone know how to fix this?

🍞

[left flower]

Answered in #general

[thorny musk]

It was DSA HQ building

I tried to Understand what was going on

And deleted the building

But there is still a "!" Sign

[thorny musk]

@hybrid wren

[rocky tulip]

Sometimes buildings are taller than they actually are because of the creator messing up with height

[lethal crane]

smh

[loud lily]

You installed a new plugin by any chance?

[lethal crane]

No

[mighty tulip]

wait , fps counter plugin?

[lethal crane]

Yes

[mighty tulip]

how you got that? As I know its deleted since it was a malware

[left flower]

Get rid of that

Sweet and simple

[normal frigate]

it really depends on where you have gotten it

[lethal crane]

I got in the in-game store

I dont use the forum

[mighty tulip]

the simplest fix to your problem its to get rid of that plugin

[mighty tulip]

you downloaded today? or you have it for a long way?

[lethal crane]

Long

[left flower]

Yeah just grt rid of it

[lethal crane]

Ok problem solve the only mistake i did is accidentaly delete all my stuff

[celest heath]

"Only" mistake?

[compact fossil]

Yo guys.

I'm having a problem with busses.

Even if there's available road to the station, i can't assign any buss stop.

Do you know any solution?

Thanks btw.

[lethal crane]

I will look only for the good side if not i will go insane

now i have a reason to build a city :)

[rose isle]

After updates, i can't play shortvideos

[stray shore]

Bruh my game get crash like damn

[lavish violet]

Theotown facing huge performance issues for me

B4 anyone ask, yes I have 64 bit java

I lowered the game graphics to the best I could, and the game still crashes

[rocky tulip]

What's your pc specs?

And how many plugins?

[lavish violet]

8 GB RAM, +300 plugins

Worse part is that I use a good chunk of them for my builds

[rocky tulip]

CPU? GPU?

Also, does an error appear before crashing or not?

[velvet belfry]

what kind of performance issues? Framerate, general slowness or just crashes?

[lavish violet]

AMD A6-3500 APU w/Radeon, I think is that

[lavish violet]

Sometimes appears and sometimes not

[lavish violet]

The main issue is crashes

[velvet belfry]

To know the crash error message would help

[rocky tulip]

Can you send the log.txt and crash.txt filed

[lavish violet]

I had lagging, but I countered lowing the graphs

[lavish violet]

Most of the times the crash msg states Java heap space

Not enough, I guess

[velvet belfry]

that would be out of RAM

Try to increase the heap space through -Xmx6G -Xms6G for example (see #bugs-n-crashes message)

[lavish violet]

I think I tried this b4, didn't worked well and I remember it would drain a lot of my PC if I pushed more

[velvet belfry]

Although with 8 Gigs of total system memory you'll have quite the issues with under 2 Gigs being usable for everything else (such as OS, your browser and whatever)

[velvet belfry]

Then either buy more memory or try out GC tuning.
But I don't think anyone has ever attempted to GC tune theotown.

Try to add the following to the launch args:

-XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200 -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch -XX:G1NewSizePercent=30 -XX:G1MaxNewSizePercent=40 -XX:G1HeapRegionSize=8M -XX:G1ReservePercent=20 -XX:G1HeapWastePercent=5 -XX:G1MixedGCCountTarget=4 -XX:InitiatingHeapOccupancyPercent=15 -XX:G1MixedGCLiveThresholdPercent=90 -XX:G1RSetUpdatingPauseTimePercent=5 -XX:SurvivorRatio=32 -XX:+PerfDisableSharedMem -XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=1 -Dusing.aikars.flags=https://mcflags.emc.gs -Daikars.new.flags=true

[lavish violet]

Should I at least try to reduce RAM usage, in a more simple aproach?

[velvet belfry]

Using Aikars flags (which were made for minecraft servers, but let's hope minecraft and theotown are similar enough) should allow java to use the RAM more efficently

[loud lily]

Ptag files

[subtle python]

TheoTown files are located under such directories:

▪︎ Windows: C:\Users(insert username)\TheoTown
▪︎ Linux: /home/$USER/TheoTown
▪︎ MacOS: /user/TheoTown
▪︎ Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/
Reinstalling the game for Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.

Alternatively, you can access the files through in-built TheoTown file manager, accessible through the in-game menu.

You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.

[loud lily]

I thing the log.zip file would be helpful like kami said

its in the theotown folder

[vapid pumice]

fire truck diagonal frames bug?

[royal falcon]

Hm wait

On wich direction they drive ?

[agile bramble]

F

[vapid pumice]

the animation not on the foreground with the animation fg, for some car frames/directions are broken.

[quiet swan]

There's a really annoying bug where it adds a grid where I can't terraform

[left flower]

That's based on what's underground there

[quiet swan]

I forgot I had Metro tunnels there

[cyan axle]

Most infuriating thing when i do road deco stuff.

[dense vine]

Why don't the buttons show up?

[loud lily]

are you building custom roads from a plugin?

[jaunty hamlet]

no

[dense vine]

sorry, it seems that it was a mistake of mine in the street design

[storm anvil]

Large vehicles not passing eachother on diagnol roads (not diagnol roads plugin)

[jaunty hamlet]

those most probably don't have diagonal frames yet, I'd ignore it

[loud lily]

This should go in #rubbish-bin

[edgy bay]

Hi how can i install this game? it says always when im installing this game said ( App not installed) uhm.. any tips how to fix it? or my phone isn't compatible?

[loud lily]

Does google play send a notification why? Like insufficient space?

[edgy bay]

i just want to play this game for months I've been craving to play this game

[edgy bay]

No just App not installed

i can send some proof

now it send some notification

i hope someone can help me

[loud lily]

Maybe try again later or see if another app with install?

[edgy bay]

no ive experiencing this for months

its always that or the App not installed

[loud lily]

https://github.com/TheoTown-Team/translations/blob/master/android-playstore-release.apk

Try that, the official apk

[edgy bay]

ok let me try

it's the same case

[loud lily]

Can you go to your device storage/playstore storage and see how much space you have available?

On playstore you shouldideally have less than 90% space occupied

[edgy bay]

in my phone i have 53Gb available

[loud lily]

No idea then (Ill go sleep now, hope someone else can help you bye)

[edgy bay]

thanks!

[cyan axle]

My plugin is detected here,and yes it didn't had diagonal frames yet.

[thorn hollow]

Hi everyone, i have a really not Nice bug on pc, everytime i want to access to plugins, online maps, or to gallery, the game says "you're offline" i tried to connect myself to the tt site but nothing.. please could you help me ?

[edgy jetty]

can anyone explain why the plugin menu doesnt load

i have a completely fine wifi connection otherwise

[mighty tulip]

hey @normal frigate can you check that out? Multiple users say they have the same problem

[rain dagger]

Probably there is a problem with the servers

[rose isle]

@edgy jetty your conection is stable?

[loud lily]

Its not their issue, it doesnt load for anyone

[amber linden]

Not a bug

It's hard to make small turn using diagonal roads

[celest heath]

If confused where to post this, I feel like this would fit best in #suggestions

[amber linden]

Idk
But it's an old features need to be fix I think,

[zinc void]

Can anyone tell me why I get this?

[edgy jetty]

also zooming out makes the game unplayable with record low fps, is this only for me??

[somber bronze]

zooming out requires the game to render a lot of stuff at once

[left flower]

That's standard for most games

[silk ivy]

What game version do you have?

[tranquil lintel]

Anyone know how to resolve this issue when I load up my online world?

[loud lily]

looks like hadestias plugin

Ptag hadestia

[subtle python]

If, after installing any of Hadestia's plugins your game fails to launch and it displays a Lua error, usually the fix is to remove that specific newly installed plugin.

[mortal fjord]

Funny the train runs on derailment

[fervent dew]

Train puglin sometime got bugged

Maybe cuz I downloaded 6 of it

But those trains r the ones in the game already

[feral hatch]

alignment skill issue

creators fault

[sullen haven]

Someone know how to avoid these type of crashes when generate a big region?

[mighty tulip]

The device can't generate a region that big

Make a smaller one

That's the only way

[sullen haven]

Sad, 24 gb of ram isn't enought...

[somber bronze]

24 gb ram?

on a mobile?

you sure about that?

[rocky tulip]

You are very likely mixing Device storage with RAM

[sullen haven]

But i dont know how much exactly should be, so i mentioned what there Is written in the operation system

[rocky tulip]

That's not proper ram

It's will be much slower that the actual ram the the phone hss

Windows for example has the same thing where it uses the memory when it runs out RAM, and that typically means that the performance would tank

[sick scarab]

I found random a message from 2020 lol

[rocky tulip]

Could you please disable ping when replying to a message this old

Also, who cares?

[sick scarab]

Disable it to

[rocky tulip]

Not sure what was your intention with that

Other maybe to annoy

[loud lily]

Is it a bug that i went to the moon twice on a single map

And still have the option to go again?

[rocky tulip]

Nope, i think it's intencional

[loud lily]

How do i unlock the last one then

[rocky tulip]

I think the last one you can only buy it once

[loud lily]

But i cant get to the last one

Ive got the 4th upgrade twice, landed on the moon and i need to get it again

[normal frigate]

You do not need the exploration mission for the last upgrade

[vapid pumice]

lua open url cannot open the link on the 11095 version.

Runtime.openURL

[normal frigate]

With privileges?

Also, which platform specifically

[vapid pumice]

no and haven't tried with privileged

pc and android

oh, yeah, it works with privileged. hmm

[gloomy hinge]

help population doesnt go beyond 300K in my city

[loud lily]

you probably need more buildings/more dense buildings

[gloomy hinge]

are u kidding me? If it was that case I won't be here

I built like a 100 res building and still 309k

[somber bronze]

manually placing buildings won't help if you don't have the demand for them

build accordingly to the demand

[gloomy hinge]

The demand is high

Guys common that's a technical problem please assist me

[somber bronze]

"assist me" this isn't a convenience store, you will be provided with answers once someone has them

theotown can sometimes get wacky with its population mechanics, it might help to just wait it out and keep placing zones

population fluctuations can happen because there are buildings getting rebuilt and the population gets displaced

[celest heath]

Also, is the number exactly 300,000?

[fallow sluice]

Uhm hellpo

I would like to report a bug?

I report bugs here right?

[rocky tulip]

Yes, go ahead

[fallow sluice]

so uhm

when theres a fire

i call in a fire brigade right?

but when they come to the house thats on fire

the call that spawns in whenn you call them

dissapears

and fire fighters just go away house burning in front of their eyes.

and it can happen 2 times in a row

sadly i dont have recording or anything.

but it is really anoyying constantly losing houses and people.

[fallow sluice]

might to be me but i think it happens a bit too often and it didnt happen earlier

would like some help please

[left flower]

So do the fire fighters not put out the fires? @fallow sluice

[fallow sluice]

they do not

[left flower]

Or do they just not put out new spawning fires

[fallow sluice]

they sometimes get there

ant mark siiapears

and sometimes they dont even get there before the mark dissapeares.

sorry for bad english by the way

[left flower]

Sounds just like a pathing issue

[fallow sluice]

yeah i guess

but when they get there

why dont they out out the fire?

put**

they sometimes do it but rarely really.

somtimes i need to call them 3 times in a row

[left flower]

I mean it sounds like you need more fire departments

To prevent fires in general

[fallow sluice]

i have them

litteraly every INCH of the city is now covered in green.

but it wasnt before

and that happened a lot

it still happens sometimes and i loose some buildings its not that deep but i guess it is a bug and i should report it

[left flower]

Then it's likely a plugin that you have making things more flammable

[fallow sluice]

i have no plguins

plugins

[left flower]

But no that's not a bugn with the game itself

[fallow sluice]

i didnt install 1 yet.

[left flower]

It's a user issue

[fallow sluice]

have any idea how to fix it?

i dont have plugins and i didnt mess with settings

i dont know what could be the reasone.

[left flower]

It's something you're doing wrong

I don't know what

But that's how it js

[fallow sluice]

Okay thanks for explaining....

I gues???

[sick scarab]

Idk if is a bug but when fire destroy a big build you can destroy the burn floor cheaper with farm land then you remove that land and burn floor disapears and its more cheaper (in my opinion its good) sorry for my bad english

And try now

Still that

[bitter bluff]

hm

I have no idea. It works for me.

[cloud falcon]

Nooooo

[safe basalt]

Did you try moving all of you plugins and saves to a temporary folder, clearing the data and cache of the app. Then uninstalling and reinstalling it. That's what I did before the update and now that I've updated the game it's running smoothly again. Hope this helps.

[cloud falcon]

oh the road traffic bug happens to me everytime xD

[elfin current]

What does DSA do on my railways !? 🙃

( sometimes it is the nuclear symbol instead of this one )

[calm atlas]

....

wow

[full beacon]

@elfin current which railway plugin is that?

[high dawn]

@elfin current the train id is probably conflicting

[wintry pivot]

Wait why does it say DSA?

[high dawn]

DSA plugin

[full beacon]

I use the chinese railway no problem. So it is probably misbehavior of the DSA plugin.

[high dawn]

Do you use DSA plugin?

[full beacon]

No

[high dawn]

That looks like the DSA symbol for the category, I think the id of that train and the DSA icon is comflocting

[hallow pike]

Can you explain why this is happening ?

It's very out of order..

[hybrid trout]

^^Same here^^

Its just hard to separate two lane

[calm atlas]

i hate when that happens

@full beacon It is the chinese railway and I use the DSA plugin pack

@hallow pike If you're trying to make a turn just use the 1-way highway to connect them

Less of a headache and a good temporary fix

[hallow pike]

More work then rip

Thx

[abstract belfry]

It's not that bad trust me

You're welcome!

I do it all the time

[hallow pike]

I'm trying to make a underground hwy

So more can drain also ;-;

Gem

[abstract belfry]

Ah I see Let's move this to the general chat

[full beacon]

@hallow pike just build the highway like you are building it. Then just delete the one inside corner tile. The others should lose the intersection. Then replace the inside corner tile.

[hallow pike]

It still uses extra gems when I use it in tunnels..

[bitter bluff]

@elfin current send me the json of that railway plugin.

And which version are you using? It could be because of new texture things.

[summer maple]

I have the same problem, but with the golden 63 tower

[bitter bluff]

I have no idea

Show me DSA plugin pack version @summer maple

[elfin current]

I actually use the latest version available --->on the forum<-- ( beta 4 If I remember well )

[bitter bluff]

don't use it

use the one in the discord

[elfin current]

K

[bitter bluff]

A unfixable bug

[livid bobcat]

I just overrided that

[summer maple]

@bitter bluff
I.... I..I-I didn't install DSA

[bitter bluff]

The I have no freaking idea

[pine pagoda]

BUG!

[abstract belfry]

this doesnt look good...

I stumbled on this twice now

I think it is caused when you tap the App's notification to open the game

but had it recently open in the background

It seems to resolve itself when reopening the app

But could make one lose their progress if they didn't save recently

[west pelican]

lol

your phone will explode in 3

2

1

[tidal arch]

↪ 💥

[west pelican]

when you press this button the background turns forest and don't show your city

[bitter bluff]

I think that it's not a bug

Anyways, which version is it?

[full beacon]

I think that's because if you obtain some of them, the game has to change some things internally

[west pelican]

looking for version..

version 1.4.62

i'll look in other phone if it works

Same

[bitter bluff]

So it's a feature

[west pelican]

okay

but that hasn't logic

you see your city

and then you see forest

xD

[bitter bluff]

Cities can be built in forests

[west pelican]

xD ok

[bitter bluff]

@full beacon I checked my end with DSA plugin and it's not the issue.

[west pelican]

I don't get the right money number when I come back

I stopped playing 12+ hours

And I just get that

[bitter bluff]

That's not a bug.

[west pelican]

So

What is it?

I don't get like 5 m

[bitter bluff]

You should get only half of the income

[west pelican]

Why?

Why did you do that?

My game trolled me

Sad

[bitter bluff]

At least I think it works that way.

[west pelican]

When you enable the sandbox mode in a city, the top right icons doesn't move, and when you rejoin they move to the corner, I think the icons should move when you press the sandbox button

[heady osprey]

@west pelican I don't think TheoTown has code that deals with the detection of the position of the icons. They can't go "Oh, something disappeared. Let's move!"

[frozen flume]

you can probably write that

[heady osprey]

@frozen flume tahts haking

[frozen flume]

?

what is hacking

[bitter bluff]

The icon is Just hidden.

[brazen zenith]

Wtf

[frozen flume]

What is the problem

?

[brazen zenith]

No bot spam

This is the game but

[frozen flume]

There's no problem with that

[brazen zenith]

Ok

[frozen flume]

yeah

😛

[bright belfry]

Pretty cool

[astral kernel]

the game isn't displaying my purchases, I haven't played in a while and may have reinstalled the game at some point

[high dawn]

Hmmm...

[astral kernel]

i linked it to my google play games account too

[abstract belfry]

Does this happen on all of your maps?

[astral kernel]

yes

i still have some of them apparently

i think those were the more recent ones

[abstract belfry]

Really strange

have you tried to build the first building

and then unlock the other ones?

[astral kernel]

it's just says i need to unlock

part of military bade

[abstract belfry]

So you cant even build the first building

Hm what level is your city?

Did you build these in a older version?

[astral kernel]

yes it was in an older version

[abstract belfry]

Does the same thing happen in sandbox?

[astral kernel]

yes

[abstract belfry]

Okay

I have an idea for you to try

Are you able to at least place a Headquarters?

Because that's the primary building

[abstract belfry]

Oh

press the Plus

you have to get the add-on 🙃

[astral kernel]

i had the addon before

[abstract belfry]

was this before you removed the game?

[astral kernel]

i think so

[abstract belfry]

It may have reset

[astral kernel]

i still have other purchaes i mafr

[abstract belfry]

So there's no check mark

on the Military base

[astral kernel]

it seems to be the more recent ones

that are still around

the earlier purchases aren't there

[abstract belfry]

Hm well all i can tell you is to repurchase the add-on again :L

I can notify the developers to look into this

when they're online

[astral kernel]

it's not just the military base, but also several other buildings

[abstract belfry]

Which ones?

[astral kernel]

the fancy fire department, the go cart track, the slime disaster, the big transmission lines, the UFO,the weather building,

and i think the big fountain

[abstract belfry]

Well I will notify someone to look into your account and corroborate this for you

[astral kernel]

This was done using in game gems not irl money

[abstract belfry]

I assumed so however I will still ask them to look into it

[astral kernel]

ok thanks

[high dawn]

A minor bug.

[heady osprey]

The bus is too long to be counted as one vehicle

So if I'm not wrong it is two sprites

But they are coded so that they are really close together to give the illusion that it is one bus

Sneaky Lobby

[bitter bluff]

tried to be genius?

[heady osprey]

That's my theory

Because it is like the train

[bitter bluff]

And you are ALMOST correct.

[heady osprey]

You see the individual carriages turn at a bend

Yay

How correct am I

In percentage

[bitter bluff]

80%

[heady osprey]

Give me 80% of a gold star

[west sun]

Lol @heady osprey

[bitter bluff]

no

[heady osprey]

So what was the 20% i got wrong

[summer maple]

The bus is a vehicle... The bendy part, is also another vehicle on it's own. But it is tailed to the first one.

Am I correct? @bitter bluff

(sorry for ping)

[bitter bluff]

yes

[summer maple]

How many percent?

[bitter bluff]

95%

[summer maple]

Good enough. Thank you

[high dawn]

The articulated bus graphics look wrong anyway.

[abstract belfry]

ahem:

[high dawn]

The buses should look like that, but don't.

[muted mural]

For some reason, railways won't let me place them sideways or connect them to other railways

[bitter bluff]

You probably have some wires there

[shrewd shard]

This would be a bug right? I'm not missing something obvious? These pop up randomly every once in a while where traffic otherwise is always 100% green.

[heady osprey]

Yes its a bug

But its unfixable

[weary nest]

And its annoying

[shrewd shard]

Unfixable?

[high dawn]

this doesnt attract inhabitants at all, resetted the city several times over to no avail, noone would move in at all

[bitter bluff]

No one wants to live there.

[shrewd shard]

You're legit forcing them to farm

[wide plaza]

Or you can just force them to settle by placing a home there by force

if you enable cough debug mode cough or something

[high dawn]

those jerks from district 13 really need a thorough understanding of who is the boss here

[bitter bluff]

Of course

[high dawn]

anyways, my point was that noone is moving in at all, seems like a bug to me

[bitter bluff]

if that is not region, that doesn't work

[high dawn]

it is region, i have roads coming in from one side

[bitter bluff]

Not interested in moving

[full beacon]

@high dawn

[high dawn]

i am aware of those issues, and adressed them accordingly, but the situation does not change

[hardy socket]

Uploading

Done

[elfin current]

The plugin needs a certain category and you do not have that category. Do considere downloading the category ( car category by Borbor if I remember well ).

[frozen flume]

Why did you delete it?

[celest egret]

I bought the recycling center for 150 and I switched tabs on my phone and it's gone @dim grail

Pings?

[lime cradle]

Fire trucks won't spawn in the new beta

[bitter bluff]

They won't if they have no power

Probably a fire truck without power blocking the road. :)

[bitter bluff]

[dusky topaz]

I have a little problem with my diamond counter

[high dawn]

This might be a bug problem but my tanks and military trucks wont leave the military base.

Someone help.

[bitter bluff]

Enable patrol option

[leaden quest]

It's not working in the city of Pio.

I'll send you a picture.

The trucks and tanks ingnore the option to leave the base.

[bitter bluff]

Too far

Umm... Is this normal?

[bitter bluff]

Yes

It's drawing 3 influnces

[muted mural]

Oh ok

[bitter bluff]

will be fixed anyways

[long zealot]

I have a little....I think savegame problem

can anyone help??

[elfin current]

Can you describe exactly what the problem is pls ? 🙂

[high dawn]

Help!

TheoTown keeps crashing on me

[bitter bluff]

probably road frames

[heady osprey]

Help!
TheoTown crashed when I played on NOLOGIC mode!

[bitter bluff]

It will crash and corrupt all city saves.

Not even developee.

[wide plaza]

I told you not to use game mode 4

Quoted from #town-square
0-sandbox
1-easy
2-medium
3-hard
4-dont try this game mode

Don't try NOLOGIC

[heady osprey]

@bitter bluff my city save is ok

Just checked it

[tame star]

Theotown Inhabitant counter is kinda broken for me

[wanton gate]

Evryone hates me :'v

[bitter bluff]

Actually game hates you.

If game is very mad. It will summon 20 nukes and destroy all city saves.

therefor, not a bug.

[west sun]

@bitter bluff by the DSA

[wanton gate]

Then why is this happening to my city? 🤔

[bitter bluff]

GAME HATES YOU FOR DOING SOMETHING IT DOESN'T LIKE.

[wanton gate]

:'v

[tame star]

@wanton gate

he's just a bad kind of person

it's only a bug that should be killed

[high dawn]

Hey all I got a bug

It's plugin related but affects the game

Basically my good friend Almighty Pickle helped me make a json for some cars, after fixing the h and w values I loaded up the game. When I went on my game started to lag and when I went onto a map containing the car spawner my game crashed

When I tried to reload again my game crashed after two seconds, when I got rid of the "car spawner": code my game was normal. Any ideas what's wrong or how to debug it

I'm pretty sure whenever it tries to spawn a car the game crashes

This is the part of the json affected

{ "id":"nuketest.£", "category":"$cat_nukepack00", "width":1, "height":1, "car spawner": [{ "cars": ["$ja_nuke_car00"], "radius": 30, "count": 3 }, { "cars": ["$ja_nuke_car01"], "radius": 30, "count": 2 } ], "frames":[{"bmp":"nucleartest.png"}], "type":"decoration", "title":"Nuclear Detonation Safe Area", "text":"NUUUUUU KABOOM! Help your nuclear scientists safely endure nuclear explosions.", "influence radioactive": 5, "price":20000, "monthly price":100, "power":"-40", "water":"-23", "author":"EpicTemmie", "draw ground":true, "rotation aware":false },

Any help will be greatly appreciated thanks!

[bitter bluff]

It has to do with texture definition.

REALLY?

[dapper holly]

For some reason my city's wont transfer water from one area to the next. I'll connect the water pipe to the neighboring city but when I got to play on that city it will ether say it's polluted water when it's not even near an industrial area on both maps or it won't even give water to my buildings.

[bitter bluff]

You have to connect the pipe from the edge to the pipes and configure neighbour trade tab

[dapper holly]

I do but for some reason no matter were a place them it will glitch and not give water to my buildings even when the pipe is right under it plus it keeps saying it's polluted even when nothing's there to pollute it

Then I'll build a water tower to support it but then when it gives it water it will say it a polluted

[light dove]

did you just connect the pipes?

[ebon plover]

0of

[light dove]

or did you already set the amount to be imported in the neighboorhood commercial tab

[dapper holly]

I kept it were it was at I didn't change it cause it was already making more then it needed

But ones the buildings do get water there all polluted

[light dove]

hmm

so you did not actually press import yet

[dapper holly]

No

[light dove]

if you click on your city name, the overview should pop up

click on the 2 cubes with arrows ( the one before the airplane i think )

and there you see the connections the city has

once there, click on import or export to actually transfer the water or energy

[dapper holly]

Oh

That actually makes since actually

Then if I haven't clicked it yet how'd the water still getting threw

[light dove]

maybe one of the existing waterpumps in that city is just on the edge with some pollution source

like a coal plant, or industry

[dapper holly]

I didn't build any coal plants and as for industry there on the other side of the map

[light dove]

could you share a picture of the city in #city-showcase

so we can help and maybe find the source

[dapper holly]

Yes hold on

[light dove]

sure

[light dove]

can you check the pollution influence? see where it reaches

[dapper holly]

Kk

On the opposite side were it says farmland in the neighboring city it says it's polluted

[light dove]

hmm, strange'

just ignore it for now id say

did you get the water import to work already?

[dapper holly]

The water is moving fine but it's just the fact I keep getting reminders saying you have polluted water here

[light dove]

so when you press the button next to it

it brings you to the farmland?

[dapper holly]

Yes

[light dove]

hmmm

[dapper holly]

Has this been a problem before

Or is it just my lucm

[light dove]

i have not heard it before i think

[dapper holly]

Just my luck

Got it

[light dove]

all i can think of is remove the source it says is polluted, and replace it

[dapper holly]

So remove the farmlands?

Or just the entire industrial area

[mellow scaffold]

????

[rocky tulip]

Need more energy

[wintry pivot]

That pump consumes a lot of electricity btw

[jagged dagger]

Thats not a pump, thats a water cleaning thingy

Water purification or purifier

[jolly folio]

Welp, why i can't enter sandbox anymore

[livid bobcat]

@jolly folio hey, activate debug mode, then enter to the console and type "setgm:0" and press "enter"

[mellow scaffold]

Or you can activate experimental feature

@tardy sand it might be glitched cuz of the decals

[tardy sand]

@mellow scaffold decals?where you see decals?

dis is just a tunnel in water

same bug.

[mellow scaffold]

Oh,well yes the tunnel work that way if u do it too close to water,iguess

[jolly folio]

@livid bobcat how do i type in debug?

[mellow scaffold]

Look settings and find "console"

[jolly folio]

Ok, got it

[mellow scaffold]

And type what he said in the bottom of console menu

[wide plaza]

Me thinks that you probably didnt enable experimental things

[elfin current]

Do you have the Better Disastrous Present plugin ? If yeah then all the disasters probably happened because of it.

[wide plaza]

@high dawn

1. Go to Other in Settings
2. Scroll down and enable experimental features (they are ticked ✅ if enabled)
3. Once you enable it, Catastrophe will appear then you can disable disaster

Many people miss additional features due to not enabling experimental features

[high dawn]

oh thx it works now

[wide plaza]

Np

[bitter bluff]

What disasters are you complaining about occuring? @high dawn

[high dawn]

Its fixed

And also i cant control the dsa disaster

[light dove]

the drill disaster?

i don't think it is meant to be controlled

There are many reasons for a crash tho

Did you tamper with theotown related stuff before it crashed?

I did not write the city name cause I forgot the name.
The file names might not be finished, cause I do not remember the file name properly.

[frozen flume]

Thoses are saves

"Dis is also happens with every single plugin"

[frozen flume]

Is everyother plugin named as bpm instead of bmp

??

[tardy sand]

i just did clean up my cache, and now all plugins work

After you got an error did you restart theotown?

[gusty crown]

How do it remove all the bensound music

I already changed it to my fav song

But why it create that bensound again

[acoustic perch]

Don't know

[mellow scaffold]

Ll

If u havent delete it from the theotown music folder then ofc it still plays

[wide plaza]

@gusty crown put .nofilecreation in the music folder and delete bensound
Or

1. Go to settings
2. Disable static downloads
3. Delete those bensound awful music

[robust scaffold]

How?

@wide plaza or where to disable static downloads?

[wide plaza]

If you cant go to settings
Find download static files and disable it
