Until a sale is announced no one knows when it will be. All official sales (so Steam and Paradox Plaza) get announced on the official social media channels, so you can follow those to make sure you won't miss any.

They are probably only visible to me then, which means you probably aren't subscribed to them. :) Happy I was able to help ^^

Roundabout Builder is a mod, and mods disable achievements. Only ways to get around that is not play with mods or use a mod to enable achievements despite using mods. The game can't tell the difference between mods, so it doesn't know which ones make achievements a lot easier to completely. :)

When placing the multi-track station the game picks one track to connect to each outside connection. You cannot know which station track it decides to connect where, so you will need to connect all of them to the outside world and see which one the trains arrive at. Once you know which one is connected to which outside track, you can then disconnect the rest from the outside world (if you want to).

This is probably the easiest and most flexible solution. Any post office can be what you want it to be. Here's the mod. :)

Are you using any mods?

If setting up a pagefile doesn't help, then your best option for help is to post on the official support forums and attach your log there too, since it isn't mod or asset related. :)

Does it happen to all or many objects? Or just a few? It can happen with assets that have a broken LOD texture, but they can also affect other buildings. If you have any screenshots of it I might be able to spot some problem assets to remove.

No, the only way to remove snow from a building is for the creator to use vertex colors to tell the game where it shouldn't apply snow. There aren't any mods to change this I'm afraid. :/

Toggleable Whiteness seems like a likely one. It's never a good idea to install mods from a collection without going through every single mod yourself, reading the descriptions and considering if it's a mod you want to use. That way you will know what the mods you use do, which helps when encountering something you don't want. :)

And the 2nd collection has several outdated and broken mods, that should be removed if you are subscribed to them.

Pause on load - no longer needed, this was added to the game
Klyte Commons - no longer needed
Demand Master - dynamic demand is broken

Fine Road Tool - broken and conflicts with Fine Road Tool 2 from the first collection
Fine Road Anarchy - broken and conflicts with Fine Road Anarchy 2 from the first collection
Traffic Manager: President Edition [Stable] - broken, use the newer TM:PE V11 STABLE instead

Interestingly, the textures i've extracted from the game won't load in photoshop (although they do load in Windows preview). It does seem to be a format issue of some kind.

What color mode are you using?

Hmm, that is strange! Is it just that train or do other types of trains do it too? If you know the name of the train asset, we can try it. Perhaps it's related to that and not something else. :S
It wasn't just that train, it was all trains + the accordion buses.
I don't know what happened, but now it has fixed itself, so thank you for your time :)
Er du ikke også fra Danmark egentlig? :)

Originally posted by Mr. Monday: Yeah, just turn that option off and left your city grow back to normal. And in the future make numbered hard saves (ie: cityname 01, cityname 02, and so on) instead of relying on the autosaves so you'll always have something to fall back to in case something else goes wrong later. If you feel like you have too many saves just move all but the most recent one to a different folder.

This is very good advice! Generally it's always much better to make new saves than save over the same file. You can always move old saves out of the folder and keep them elsewhere on your computer as backups, so you don't have a ton in your savegame list. :)

All the fancy settings of TMPE aren't going to help you unless you understand the basics of how vehicles travel, so let's start there. They pick a route much like if you put a starting point and a destination into a GPS. They only change lane when they need to, which is usually for turns.

When you see a lane not used, it's because it doesn't go anywhere useful - they don't need to turn into it, so they don't. Best way to illustrate how routes are picked is this image of two similar, but slightly different roads. The lines represent any route vehicles might take. One has a lot of wasted lanes, the other sees much more use, because there are turn-only lanes.

Originally posted by cultural_lover: Exact same problem, author has not responded....Not using IPT..it was working fine and then suddenly it started doing this.... all lines get exact same budget percentage, resulting in some lines getting too little transport and other lines get 100's of buses etc...

Please start a new thread on this issue. The OP is over 5 years old - the IPT that's working now is not the same that was back then (You are hopefully using IPT2 and not the original). The game and the mods used have changed so much, that it's better to start a new thread.

If the game also does not save with those launch options in Steam, then make sure cities.exe is set as an exception for your antivirus. That can sometimes stop the game from being able to save. If it already is or that doesn't help, then your best option for help is the official support forums. They only allow posts in English though, so you might need to put things through a translator. :/

Bypassing it won't help with the launch options. But one of the ways to do that does mess with them, so I figured it was worth checking if maybe you were using that way, which would explain the launch options not working.

That sounds like something is wonky with the save then. Let's try a few mods that can clear up issues - even though your city doesn't have those exact symptoms, it's worth a try.

Get these mods and make sure they're all enabled:

If you have the Industries DLC, the easiest fix for this is to add enough storage.

Another reason this can happen is if you hit the vehicle limit, so trucks can't spawn. You can use a mod like CSL Show More Limits to check how far off the limit you are.
