Change Where Districts Can Be Built

[gyogen2]

Ok ran again and didn't get any errors. Sorry for earlier mistake. I had been testing other mod and forgot to click it off and clear cache so conflict between two was causing error for me.

I don't see what's different about this code and what I last posted

Is there anything wrong with my modinfo file ?

 

[gyogen2]

No, on mine it's loads without errors and the maintenance is applied (didn't run long enough to check other). The reasons I got initial errors was a conflict and mistake on my part.

Have you cleared your cache files?

 

[Littlebob86]

Where are my cache files ? ? I had just done a clean install of civ, including deleting the left over mod and dlc folders . .

I'll try run it again when I get back to my computer

 

[Littlebob86]

Thanks for all your help by the way !

I looked at your modinfo,
<UpdateDatabase id="OutsideGreatWallComponent">
<Properties>
<Name>LOC_OUTSIDE_GREATWALL_COMPONENT_NAME</Name>
</Properties>
<Items>
<File>Improvements.xml</File>
<File>Units.xml</File>
<File>Features.xml</File>
</Items>
</UpdateDatabase>

The only file in your mod is Improvements, don't need other two listed I don't think. Since you also have all your updates in that file, if you're still having issues, try changing the file name.

Cache folder is in same documents/mygames folder as the logs folder. Just delete the two files in there before starting game.

Ok so I've ran it another 10 times and the logs are having errors.. I redownloaded the original mod, and only copied in and added my stuff to the improvements.xml and didn't touch the modinfo on the original mod that worked. And I've cleared my logs every time, and not once and I having unit maintenance or being able to remove floodplains (I've started quick new games every time to make sure there wasn't an error or a conflict), and the mod I was trying was the only one active!! I'm ready to go crazy! I mean, it's so simple just editing the base file, but I really want to know what I'm doing wrong now!!!

This file should be working, it's the code from what you posted (Which is the same as I had in the end), and the modinfo that runs, with no extra files added.

 

[gyogen2]

For the life of me, I can't see what the difference is, I tried running your last upload, and got the errors, then ran the one I had, and no errors.
Just to see, can you clear your cache, remove your mod from the mod folder and put this on in, and see if you still get errors(just your earlier upload that I had messed with)

 

[gyogen2]

Saw problem, all cap SET
should be Set
Also all cap WHERE
Always the simple, obvious things I miss for so long

 

[gyogen2]

Would be all caps in sql format, but not in xml

 

[Littlebob86]

Sweet Jesus I've literally been at this for hours, and you amazing person it's all over! I don't know what happened but it's all working!!!

Thankyou!!!! If you lived in Western Australia I would bake you a cake or something!

 

[gyogen2]

I could have helped you a lot sooner if my dumb brain had noticed the caps. Glad it's working for you

 

[Littlebob86]

Ahh right!! I thought it must have been something simple!!

Also, one last thing about the modinfo file. If I change it to this, should it run?? Does the custom id and component need to have no spaces?? And the name LOC_Outside.. What is that refering to??


<Settings>
<Custom id="Kierons Changes">
<Items>
<Component>Kierons Changes Component</Component>
</Items>
</Custom>
</Settings>

<Components>
<UpdateDatabase id="Kierons Changes Component">
<Properties>
<Name>LOC_OUTSIDE_GREATWALL_COMPONENT_NAME</Name>
</Properties>
<Items>
<File>Improvements.xml</File>
</Items>
</UpdateDatabase>
</Components>
</Mod>

 

[gyogen2]

The name in components section usually corresponds to name in Properties at top of file.
I can not say for sure if it needs no spaces, but I only have seen it with no spaces.

 

[gyogen2]

BTW, the sad thing for me is, when I was first looking at you file, I rewrote it just to make sure, and didn't even notice I changed the caps.

 

[Littlebob86]

Seriously though, thank you for all the time and help!!!

 

[gyogen2]

No worries mate (though I'm sure Australian slang has changed since I was there far too many years ago )
