Hallo everybody,

but now i got a problem which i believe is cause by a corrupted/old file or my stupidity: When i start or reload a city i get like 999999999999999999999 $ cash and tax revenue beyond dreams. How can I fix this problem?
Any help would be greatly appreciated; thank you in advance!

I've never seen anything like it and can't even think of a mod that might cause it... %confuso You got me curious to see who will come up with an answer. ???

One basic suggestion...ye olde dividing-plugins-in-half method :P
Otherwise, If it's just at game startup, just use the moolah cheat (CTRL-X, type 'moolah' xxxxx with xxxx being an amount of money.) That should reset your balance. Don't know about taxes though.

There are a number of mods such as that around.. If you wish to use a "cheat system" for cash, I'd suggest you implement one of the mods that only give cash "on demand".. either through a "click" or through a "cheat entry".. there are several around. A real risk of the type lot you have is overflow.. if you get enough cash, it will "wrap around" and go to a big negative number... At that point you will be "fired" as mayor and your city will terminate. The only way to locate your problem is as others suggest doing a "sort system" to isolate the lot causing your problem. If you take a half, then another half, etc until you find it (called a binary search) you will likely locate the lot within 4 -8 "tries"...
