Why you ping Chara?
@earnest pendant ight lets stop pinging him. Be patient...
^
You better stop pinging her before mods find this
I need Check Forum
What? ;-;
Check up
I changed
and....
Use this if you uncomfortable With Bride Hole
Yes...
But what I need to do whis this?

So fix Holes, you can do how is here
I think it's a good idea to Diagonal Roads
Kiki012#1796 has been warned., one ping is enough bud..
???
How Much warn To Ban?
I don't understand what are you trying to say
Neither do I..
Oh wait, we don't base bans off warnings.. we ban people if they have to be banned, not on wether they have been warned 10 times let's say @earnest pendant
Okay how to delete warn
You can't.. warn is warn, shouldn't have pinged Chara 6 times..
Png can 5 time? On same server
What..?
nah
So what's the problem then?
uh
sorry
i didn't finish my comment ๐
edit of comment: it is this plugin
and also
yes it is decoration
but it is weird :/
@earnest pendant You can't excessively ping people, and you can ping more than 5 times, but not at the same time
he was already told lel
How exactly is it weird?
Yes, that's normal
ight
@earnest pendant ok check my json
That's not how you operate frames.
Pserverinfo 365478391719264276
@eternal lake what do you mean
maybe because that's an award so I can't put two frames
it should be like "frames":[{"bmp":"name.png"}, {"bmp":"name2.png"}]
so that's incorrect
I don't know, I never used jsongenie.
Use Json Brain
@earnest pendant have you ever look into the forum? There should be tutorials... Discord is not a thing to start to make plugins unless you are using other people's codes or texture
I fixed that
So np anymore
but I still suggest to use forum. There you can learn more things than the people here. Users used their free times to do tutorials there
Of course I read tutorials
I'll keep it on my mind to check forum for help
bud?
@eternal lake yes what!!
you meant but?
Bud
lol, guess it's but then
..?
So it's settled, he meant but.
unterminated array at line 24 character 6 or something like this , what do i do
nvm
this is what happens when you have too many tabs open
for some retarded reason i was editing an older version of the same json
hecking heck
cant find animation draft?
@steel verge
That means that animation is not defined before running other draft
how do i get rid of that ugly line at the edge of stuff that is supposed to be on water
Show screenshot because I don't know what you're talking bout'๐
Oh that ๐ค, is draw ground: true?
yes
Try "needs land": false
Add "needs water":true
has
Still
It appears that only draw ground removes that
I suggest you use draw ground and redo some texturing

@steel verge i tried using pcw and it kind of broke, jsonlint says it's fine
as a file or just text

you didn't need 2 square brackets at the start and end, just 1

@analog wedge I know I must fix sizes of the ground
Alright
The template is also wrong
@earnest pendant 
@earnest pendant
This is how it's supposed to look like
oh that's what did you meant
ok
That was i said previously
I'll fix the ground
When I'll have my laptop

@velvet matrix what do you want
He doesn't want anything only attention
Someone found glich or error on my Plugin
Imao the night animation
Any bugs regarding night animation won't be fixed if I remember correctly or im wrong lol
Why this happen even when i put draw ground: true?
๐ค show json
๐คทโโ๏ธ
Is it a bool?
What is a bool?
Boolean
True
Send me raw code
This?
๐ค ๐ค
That actually right
@lime rapids maybe because there's no space between "draw" and "ground"
Hmm.. but i put It on the app
Look above
I sent yesterday
I Will test It again today
Use json Brain
It happened before with another plugin, i tested in a other day, and worked perfectly
Its on play store? @earnest pendant
Yes
Ok, i gonna search
Pls dm me
Maybe its something related to military zone?
I will put It on health category to see if anything hapens
Okay, this is really getting me confused
You don't have draw ground true
This?
@lime rapids
^
Then hmm
you need spaces between that
Ja, author isn't needed so bad in coding right
11 K Diamond, How?
By getting diamonds
Fixed by me ๐

@lime rapids just use the JSONlint website



The train carriage has an error, who has the plugin? hopefully fixed soon
plugin name Turkish train pack
:maybe it Frames bugs
Ahah iknow how to fix it,try to Made Frames Corditate Are Correct
@woven drum This Is Not Him Plugin
WIฮWIรR no it's not kikis plugin
It's yusuf plugin
Kiki made indonesian trains
Yusuf made the turkish trains
I Just says that my indoneisan train Plugin
But it's turkish not indonesian
I mean my one of my Plugin on pictures @woven drum
Why when I install some auto generation plugins my terrain got pollution in some parts lol
Okay...,wow name change
layer problem
Yeah
Well yeah but the building goes over the road
It's too long
They are supposed to be 1x1
oh dood i just saw that
wtf
those things were outlawed some time ago
ask ja aboot it
@woven drum do not build road behind the building!
You can read in description : 1x2 tile
The texture is longer than border of 1x1 tile
By the way i like the way those buildings look
Yeah
I know that
You could extend the building zone to 1x2
Idk if that's possible
But well, should be
Impossible
Its a trick to look more realistic
Yeah they look great
They look better then actual 1x1 buildings
Uhm
Yeah thx for clarifying why that happens
Remember: don't build anything behind the 1x2 buildings!
@everyone who use this plugin
Its a trick. These buildings from Amsterdam (Oostenburg)
These buildings looks ugly if they on 1x1 tile, without longer texture
Because that's how the game works
@earnest pendant Instead of extending the texture, you could just make multiple buildings in a 2x2 square.
Or just use compositions for 1x2.
Yeah but when the spawn normally it's gonna look weird
Remove the Plugin and install the non category one
@vale minnow wot
lol
i did write
"override": "true"
and it says this
edit: removed " before and after word true
@crude sleet you are mdk, right?

@earnest pendant missing comma
Hello, i need help with night frames for Military Type building
Thx 
Np
How can I create a plug-in?
@native magnet you need a drawing, and JSON. Also probably check #information
np
For god sake, ask this plugin's owner why his plugin costs 100k
per piece
i still dont know what i did to get suspended in plugin comments
make the latest plugins free or something
@unborn edge see above question by @crude sleet
What id need?
height: <a>, width: <a>,
I think it's this.
@fluid iris It's a problem with the code.
@lime rapids I can make night
Oh, a little late xD
What did you download?
idk, I've downloaded a lot of stuff at once
well I've found the issue
it was pretty fast
it's a character decoration plugin
I can't find it anywhere anymore
I found the problems,the image size
Hmm

hey guys, probably a stupid question but every time I try to run TheoTown i get this problem
Hi, this is unfortuntately a quite generic way of the GPU saying "no".
If it happens again I recommend to try out the following steps:
- Update your graphics drivers
- Install the official Java from Oracle
- Restart your PC.
thank you so much
ooh btw one more thing, I cant seem to find a plugins folder in my TheoTown folder, any ideas?
Your TheoTown folder should look like this
if it doesn't have the plugins folder, you can create it
This is all i have
which is strange because on my old laptop i had the plugins folder
aha
found it
thank you so much
every time i join the TheoTown discord i always find someone who helps me out. Love this so much
@steel verge it fix tyvm
@eternal lake
I'm having problem
send the error message
(tap on "Error")
@eternal lake
This not working too
Ah sorry
Is working
But
Only on English language
Oof
@earnest pendant
@thin blade this is your plugin right?
Copy and paste
A same code,then The creator just change the .Png file and forgot to change I'd,same thing happened to me
Me,with my own Plugins
Chage The id then test it @thin blade
well I gotta make override true and submit on store then
If I need to change the ID I need to change every id right?
alright
@earnest pendant Try deleting and redownloading the plugin
Ok
How to defend city from tornados
You can disable them in the settings. There is no way to actually protect your city.
Have you modified it or something? I just downloaded a new copy and it worked fine for me
@kind kelp
So you did modify it?
Adding override probably doesn't do what you think it does
What exactly wasn't working?
First of all send .json code and second of all it says pretty clearly what's wrong
@earnest pendant
๐
What
you width and height is very wrong
Height and width need to be equal look above ^ and That building size is impossible pretty sure
In pixly how do you check tiles
ok
- too messy
try width 2 and height 2
anything beyond 8 is not supported
@kind kelp how did it go
i-
๐
If it was a personal plugin I would say this was funny
It is still funny but not worth for plugin store
It will anyways get rejected on the store or the staff might get drunk
(Which never happens)
Danm for this

@weak brook yep
@meager jay did you put moon statue?
No why?
Yes
Open that plugin's category and put the moon statue
@meager jay
The only plugin you need for the day and night cycle is the Plugin Creator Tools. It will show a new section on the bar where it will be the moon statue.
The other ones will not work in the same way.
Any pic of the moon statue?
Give me a second.
Oh,alright then. It would take some time anyway.
But thanks for the help anyways
Someone can help me? How do i disable those things?
Impossible
๐ค
A little help?
two same json files?
dunno
Nope
did you add overwrite:true?
Okay (สฦช๏ผพ3๏ผพ๏ผ
nice
Lol
@earnest pendant
@earnest pendant delete zip
zip also counts as plugin
also like TheoBoy said it should be in plugins folder of TheoTown
Ok Hello I had asked a question a while ago but without any look
*luck ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
But how do you start to create a plug-in?
There is plenty of tutorials on forums ๐
Ok thank yoi

also happened to me
so Yusuf left the server @analog wedge
tf
They gonna tell you to read forum
Bruh nothing piercing tru my brain reading it
I posted on forum for more help
Lol
you can check my tutorial, it's pretty easy
you just have to define the animation and then use it in a building
I've tried
you need to set the height and the width
@ruby vale i verified his json
ok
But, there was width and height atributes
he probably wrote it wrong
Drawground must be separated
Drawground must be separated
@steel verge It is , because the JsonGenie makes it to the text form
@steel verge help us
I can't help you with json in picture
@steel verge
Don't ping the developer without a message!
@grim zodiac Tap on the description in the plugin store.
@fiery olive It won't show the whole description. That's the problem.
image too big
I will correct it
Thank you for pinging me
i finally found out my problem with red arches
i forgot you cannot put [] brackets
otherwise everything is blank
I have problems with the plugin they don't download it just said error
I use the Samsung and the connection is fine
Ok
Someone could help me? :)
with?
it should be in the zone tutorial
lemme see
you have to define your zone with a Base (res/com/ind) and then add a "radius" and "zone radius" attribute to your building json
I'm not sure how the latter ones work
Hm
Did the zone bug have been fixed ?
your code would be useful
you want these buildings to be build on the custom zone but I don't see a zone definition?
you didn't define the zone
you just included it in the building's def
you need to have a zone first
type not defined
Look at the json everything should be good
montly price on a commercial building?
Think I found the problem
how to put a plugin?
???
what?
If you have installed a plugin from the Plugin Store, then the plugin is already in the game. If you have installed a plugin from the forums, you will have to relocate the file you installed to Theotown>Plugins using a file manager
I moved it but it doesn't work
Try un-zipping the file
Most plugins installed from the forum will be installed in a .zip format.
Thanks
It works?
It should extract into a folder
Now I know how to. Thank you for your help
You're trying to convert an object to array
nvm found a fix
@radiant charm
you pinged your self
@fiery olive
@earnest pendant
@plucky patrol
@grim zodiac
Wat
1- the building needs to be in the center of the image
2- this isn't a 1x1
i think the image is a 2x2
I did 2x2 but its 1x1 for some reason
show the code pls
@shy crag I have that kind of problems lately are you using some pixel studios?
Maybe you have too much space
Good job sir
Sir?
not really isometric , not to scale
make it isometric and scale it properly
0 effort
first or not
let me be honest it does not it at all , it is barely isometric and the scale is broken
also the lighting is on the wrong side
this is called criticism
you use it to improve
if you dont improve you are going to suck
Sorry but its bad , its not realistic at all
You should try to reproduce real buildings
When I tried making my first plugins, I barely even knew what was isometry, so I basically made like giant pictures that you can place somewhere in your city, which of course, wasn't fitting to the style of the game and looked unrealistic. ๐
Not gonna lie, the standards for a first plugin are higu.
High*
my first plugin is a vaporwave park and it was kinda good. I made with my poor phone.
My first plugin
waaaow
Guys i have a question. I installed night cycle in my city and i download a building with light animation. Why at night, my building's light animation doesn't work? Help me :(
Thanks.
I have a plugin creator tool. But how to build a moon?
find the dev tools
Ok ok thankyou dude.
you're welcome mate
I always put title and text on my plugins
Nosa
@cedar stone how do I fix it?
just edit the json file
Json file isn't showing download from the plugin store
Manifest and json files are completely different.
Also you can't edit plugins from the Plugin Store since they are encrypted.
You can ask the creator to edit the plugin and then you can update it*. Correct me if I'm wrong
If he allows and has a non-encrypted file, yes.
Is it a real building?
While googling, I found a building that I saw a lot.
๐ค
@brittle rock is there anything wrong with that?
I don't know exactly, but I'm not sure if that's a copy because the details are the same.
I am not good at English so I am not sure if there is explanation or not and very confused. LOL
What is the problem?
there is 0 problem
the problem is when you steal a texture , if you make a pixel art of a building that is in another game yourself there is no problem
Yeah i don't think its stolen , it might be some kind of reference for the original creator
Is that so? It was posted a year ago, and it looked the same with the little details. I think I'm just surprised.
Anyway, the moving picture has been updated, and I think it's a good plug-in.
it is a good plugin dude
i keep getting this
@earnest pendant Did you get the error after game installation or after plugin installation?
i had an old version on my old laptop and i transferred all my stuff over to this one
so.. kinda both?
Try removing your plugins, try to launch your game and put back the plugins
How many plugins do you have
Try to add 10 plugins from your plugin list, launch the game, remove them, and keep doing that with other groups of plugins
yeah thatโs what iโve been doing
Once you find a faulty group try to check them one by one
iโve found like 14 tbat donโt work
Try doing it without the 14
It might be a thing that you hit plugin texture limit
You can type pt to check plugin texture space usage
in game console
is there a workaround for that
i mean hopefully itโs not like the province bitmap in hoi4 where the number of pixels is limited and itโll crash if you go over them
iโm a hoi4 modder but iโve been doing theo town to help with my stress
thx
iโll do that later, itโs 4 am here actually haha
then in the experimental features tab try finding "huge texture mode" or something amongst those lines
alright, thank you!
what's the issue?
none, just showed that my plugin now has light
I think I put it in the wrong chat
yes u did
Ah, I was not sure
But does it write somewhere that you are running in huge texture mode
resolution won't resolve the problem
try contacting JustMonika, he's online now
see if maybe he can fix the issue
what's really weird is i have an old version and it works fine
interesting
830 introduced more graphics
Please use pt console command to check your plugin texture space use
so why does this work flawlessly in 830 but wont work now
841 included new update of DSA patch
so what's my solution?
uninstall unused plugins
can i just disable them or do i have to uninstall them @steel verge
disable
and i got it to work ๐ thanks

Soooo
Is there a reset password thing?
Probably
@earnest pendant there is the problem.
@flat sonnet what you want to make a bridge? There must be in road type and set to be "bridge frames".
Then why you put two ids in one array?
Id katzen... and ohgod... In there
Ah, i see, you want to make animation, right?
Night frames
@earnest pendant try this
It fix

Heya :')
How can I rotate a road deco?
Heya ๐
How can I rotate a road deco?
@molten sand I think u didn't know that road deco is made up of four parts. but you can also make it just two but it would look bad when u placed it
Hey all.
I've some to say about all plugin,
- that every building or commcial building, if edited to a name of choice should produce what's called for or edited for, Cars or Convoy
- state house, presidency & parliament
- aviation building and all
@molten sand I think u didn't know that road deco is made up of four parts. but you can also make it just two but it would look bad when u placed it
@grim zodiac
Click the map on ur right side
accidentally, i found a way to rotate the road deco frames. 
@grim zodiac
Click the map on ur right side
@thin agate why ping me?
@hollow flax
Not that... I mean something like this...
A road deco has different animation shown for cityRotation 0 and 2, and cityRotation 1 and 3...
road deco will only show animation A for cityRotation 0 (default),
will only show animation B for cityRotation 1,
animation C for cityRotation 2, and
animation D for cityRotation 3
??? How can I do that???
rotation aware???
Is rotation aware:true, applicable for road? I think, no
oh i thought u r talking about road deco sori
??? :/
:v
I'm trying to use fun for that :/ ...
Fyi, in my screenshot before, those are 2 roads. Idk if you see that just 1 road.
wait up there u r talking about road deco
Can I borrow json file for that?
The first and third screenshot, cityRotation 0 and 2 respectively is the same :/ ... But in my plugin, I want to separate it
but that's the right perspective for each rotation. IDK what you want to make.
Something like a traffic lights โบ๏ธ
I think I will share the code together when I publish my plugin. because the code is in the form of a template and so there is no duplicate id.
Thanks
Pardon me...
4 frames of animation fg? Then how I gonna create its frame indices, frame 5 and 10 (of road texture) are the only index available for cityRotation 1 and 0 respectively, and will also be build the same road deco for cityRotation 2 and 3 :/
Why can't you have a plugin that modifies theotown to make it 3d?
to make theotown look like simcity or what ?
because that's not what the engine was made for
it's not that i wanted to release a new update to modify theotown to be in 3d ...
even tho theotown is cool in part due to the fact that it is in 2d
and that it's "pixel art"
so now that I understand! but that's why theotown is 2d pixel ...๐
So putting theotown in 3d just wouldn't make sense for people who like the game the way it actually is and for the developers it would be much more work bc they have to modify the graphic engine
(I think TT was made in 2D for a fast development without worrying much about the graphics, and, being able to focus on the functions, in addition, the game was originally developed for phones, and a huge city in 3D does not sound very light, if in itself my phone runs like """" in 2D, I don't want to imagine in 3D )
yeah this too
Seriously I prefer a very good game in 2d rather than a dumb 3d game
And it takes less space runs much more fluently AND compatible with much more devices even the slowest ones
and yeah for the development is much more easy
Yes is better a 2D good game than a 3D non good game
*2.5D
if you want a 3D bad city game just play sim city buildit
@ruby vale yes that game sucks
But the dark side of Theotown is when you rotate your city the bridges become a disaster
Buildings that just don't have other frames to make them rotation aware if I'm correct
It does help to save plugin space though
@bright harness actually it really doesn't have other view on that plugin and other bridge plugins so you have to use it in ONE VIEW ONLY
u have to accept it anyways
