I have this little issue with the missle silo complex and the NuclearMissile Silo Complex by decius. In the beginning as most of you would know the missle silo complexes would usually launch test missles at certain given time frames (that of which i do not know when) I recently just noticed that the missles have all stopped launching entirely , not a single peep from them and till now i can't figure out why.  Has anyone ever encountered this problem before and if so i there a way to fix it?

** Well if no one can figure this or didn't bother its okay, its not really a major problem. With that said i'm requesting a lock on this thread then.

I have never seen a missile launched from the OG silo.... only the shuttle launch.

    OG Silo??

    Don't tell me you have never got the missle firing range in the game before? Maybe i should have stated that .. That reward structure fires test missles at certain time frames in the game.....

    And in the lot I have shown on the STEX also used to fire test missles but now has stopped completely. And really what is an OG silo.....?

    OG=Original gangster... aka the one that came with the game.... I rarely install the airbase, area 51, army base or missile silo in my cities... I have never had a city with a casino.. go figure.

    I think it runs out of missles.  Unless it is connected to a road network, they have no way of getting any more.

    Be careful with that thing, an aborted missle launch can randomly land in your city.

    I know those randomly aborted missles.. Real problem especially if you place it in the middle of the residential zone lol.(Had a few incidents when i placed it in my Larger City)

    But anyways let me just show you.

    Thats the city it's in Or should I say military Island.. anyways, as you can see all roads are collected and i don't think they can acually run out of missles, since last time they were launching it like mad (was like a damn earthquake).

    Aside from that i have no clue why they won't launch anymore. I thought maybe it was because a plugin i downloaded overwrited the command or something? But im just guessing blindly in the dark with blindfolds on.

    When exactly do the missiles launch? I never get to see it. I hear the sound but I always miss the animation.

    That's a great military base, by the way!

    Hey a question,

    Do that air force base, military base, area 51 or missile base do anything when you are being attacked the by mechanical dino, flying saucer or giant robot?

    I guess, and this is an estimate, that if you keep the time speed at its slowest point, the missile will fire 2 times a year...? Not very sure. About Shadow prophet's problem, try taking out the plugin for the lot, run the game without it, then exit the game, put the plugin lot back, then run the game. See if that helps.

    I don't really pay attention to the missile silos much, probably because I used to only have them for the money, so I bulldozed them after I got a simoleon mod, but one time a missile blew up right after it came up and it started a fire.

    Thanks Siritl Tough i think my west side of the base looks nicer i could show it if you want.. And as Artman says the missle launches twice a year (i never kept check) But in order to catch the full animation of it play it on turtle speed during the lauch time cause on cheetah it just flashes by.

    And sobol: Nothey don't do that. Military is just for a little extra income if your cities are facing finacial difficulties and the police.. only disaster they can help avert is the riots.

    And now. I tried to do what you said but no difference, missles still won't launch. But its not just the lot i downloaded, even the in-game ones won't launch. I took out the Nuclear missle silo complex files plugin, no difference.. I took out all SNM plugins, still the same. Tough aside from that i never tried anyting else, after this post i am going to try to take out all my plugins and see if it would fire at all, unless anyone else has another suggestion?  Thanks for the helping hand.
