Question Bug? Vassal Farm Not Upgrading to Level 4

I haven't played for a while so I don't know if it's the new sharpshooter pack or not. I can't have lvl4 farms in vassals any more.

I have tool and dye plot in vassals. The sfx sound played after the plot upgraded to tool and dye shop but farm still lvl3. Tried to upgraded it manually with the throw money mod. Says plot cannot be upgraded any more.

Bug?
 
My need a bit information to diagnose this one. A couple of things come to mind though.
Firstly not all farms have a level 4 for them to build up to, so despite the presence of a Tool and Die plot it may not be possible for that plot to go any further. I think that all the core mod agricultural plots do have four levels and some helpful add-on authors include in the plot descriptions which levels are available for theirs. If you list which plots aren't working people may be able to let you know if it should have a level 4 or not.
Alternatively it may depend on how the settlement was built. If it was auto-built as part of a Conqueror set up I think there are some limitations on how much you can interact with the plots. I haven't really got my head around it yet, but I've found that if I want to force a prebuilt plot, I need to change it to a new level 1 plot, then bring it back up.

I don't have any addon pack. It's the basic farm. I used to be able to upgrade them to lvl 4 before in the same vassal settlement with the same city plan and the same agriculture plots in previous patches.
 
I found out that you need to change the plot to a different crop for the system to somehow recognize the plot as yours and then it would upgrade to level 4. This was not the case in previous patches. I think this is a bug.

Prebuilt cities do seem to have a slightly different control system, where the plot level seems to be tied to the city level. As you say I have done as you did (changing a plot to a different option) in order to be able to force a level up. I've only done it so far with martial and advanced industrial, but makes sense that agro plots would be the same. I think kinggath mentioned elsewhere that tool and die plots where not currently working as intended. So should be in the process of being fixed.
