A very strange grafic/lot issue

[Tyberius06]

Hello!

Can someone explain me what I see on this picture, because I really don't understand. The situation: I built a Broadway Cruise Ship Terminal by Pez http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/28424-cruise-ship-port-csp-%E2%80%93-broadway-cruise-ship-terminal/ some weeks ago, and I continued the city building. And than today I realized that the main building has disappeard from the lot, but I didn't rebuild right that moment, but I wanted a few hours later. The bulldoze option doesn't work, the immortality killer neither, so I tried to destroy by using the terrain tools, but you can see the what happend on the picture under.

What can I do to get rid off this?

If the building was there, but no longer appears, that would suggest to me you've inadvertently removed the file containing the model (dependency). If you save the game having done so, even if you restore the file, the building will not reappear unless you re-plop the lot. This sort of behaviour is potentially very harmful for your save files, so I would firstly advise you are careful with what changes you make in terms of removing content from your plugins folder.

As for not being able to remove the lot, that's a problem. If the immortality killer won't do the trick and you can't plop another lot over it (sometimes possible) there may not be a lot you can do. Sometime the immortality killer is tricky to get to work, but try many different locations with this lot, it may help.

Thank You for your help. I managed to get work the immortality killer and it solved the problem. I think the main issue was that I removed earlier the plugin compressed folder due to some lotting work.

Thanks again.

This issue is really a problem for lotters/modders, I know I do a lot of playing around with files moving things in and out to test things.

A couple tips to avoid corrupting cherished cities though:

- If you are modding, work in a custom separate region designed for the purpose. I have many test regions, they are all throwaway in that I don't really care to much about them.
- If you must test items in existing regions (non-test regions), simply never save the city when testing.
