Capsity incress is the main thing im wondering about I tryed moding that and was unble to find the right combos of properties in order to make the ship port use them correctly. Making the lot show part of the capisty incress was easy making it use and show the use of I wasent able to get working . To manny sea port related lot items in Ilive reader finding the right ones in the right combo I just gave up lol.quote> A couple things to note: (sorry, I'm at work so I dont have the HEX values with me) 1/ the menu description (when you put tour mouse over the seaport menu icon) is just for show eg: where it said 4000 tons capacity - this figure comes from the catalogue entry in the main seaport exemplar - this is hard coded from a LText file. 2/ the main exemplar also has a frieght capacity (or something to that effect) entry in the main seaport exemplar, this sometimes worked, so in the end I deleted this entry from the seaport exemplar. The one I actually used to control the seaport capacity was actually in the seaport 'developer' exemplar. This can be found (using ILive's tree structure) under the 'General' section, under the 'Developer' sub directory. Hope the above makes sense, as I don't have the use of the ILive program in front of me. Cheers

I'll be sure to check it out!quote> I'm not sure about advanced, more to do with changing small parts of the logic, cause to be honest (if I just wanted the orginal ports) I just needed to turn on the 'grow seaport event' via a new LUA. The advance or challenging part was changing the lots and having only 1 seaport menu icon appear - this part took the longest to workaround. Just had to change my approach in thinking. Cheers

Why dont you upload it on the stex? quote> Haven't done so, as I believe it may belong in the mod section. This is probably why I haven't put the Cityhall fix in the STEX either. I will wait to make sure no major bugs (one I can correct) show up. I did read an article somewhere describing the process of getting a mod placed in the Mod Section, but for the life of me, can't find it - can anyone point me to it? Cheers

Will there be help files included this time round to help market the functionality, useability, scaleability etc Look forward to your new creation! Cheers

What the hell! Since everybody is getting into it....all the way from Australia... Me, in my rock & roll days.... A recent me.... Cheers
