Update... I was able to find a 1 month old backup of the city, in which I had virtually made almost no changes, so I was able to overwrite with this version. The broken buildings and simulation seem to now be fixed luckily. I'd still be curious if anyone else has experienced something like this, and if so, any ideas or solutions they have had for remedies, in case something like this happens again.

HELP! One of my region's main cities seems to have become "broken". A number of the buildings, while still there, appear to be showing "blank" or missing details. The year magically reset itself to 1/1/00. While the residential population remains, when I run the simulation, it's as if "nothing" is happening as nothing grows, changes, etc. The advisers all show messages as if it's a new city. Also, on the region view, all of the commercial and industrial jobs have "disappeared", even though the city itself still shows them all there (what's weird is that the residential population still shows on the region view and counts towards my regions population). I fear that my city is broken with no way to restore it, which would really be upsetting to me beyond words (I spent a ton of time working on it). Has anyone else experienced this, and if so, any suggestions for what I can do?
