G’day folks,

Yagisan here,
For those of you that don’t know me, I’m one of the City Plan Contest Organisers, so this is an official announcement.

I have made an executive decision to extend the February 2023 – Fairline Hills competition deadline to 11:59 PM CST on the 28th March, 2023.

This month we have encountered a variety of technical issues, and illness among the team, so to allow everyone time to recover, and to investigate these issues, I am extending the deadline.

At the time of this post, the City Plan V2 Plugin Creator is currently producing city plans that do not match the exports. This requires investigation and further testing by the team.

Due to the above issues, I am making some late changes to the rules.

All entrants MUST upload their saves (Levels 0, 1, 2 and 3) to here for validation. Please follow the instructions on that page.

All entrants MUST create a thread here in the forums, and post their 10 screenshots in their thread.

Your entry will be considered complete after both the screenshots are uploaded on the forums, and the saves are uploaded to my dropbox link. Please do both before the new deadline.

I will only consider the most recent upload to my dropbox. This means that if you have uploaded, and the deadline has not passed, you may upload newer versions of your entry to the dropbox link.

Please do NOT upload to the Nexus until we confirm the tools are correctly generating your city plans. We will confirm that with an update post in this thread.

Pra's Fairline Hills Settlement was updated to 2.2.0 – please update to this version immediately. It has fixes for the settlement scrap profiles. You will also find a scrap baseline and scrap profile now available to download from that site.

Workshop Framework. The current version of Workshop Framework has a bug, and is unable to correctly export scrap in Fairline Hills (and a few other settlements). Contest Entrants, should download and install this beta and use that for exports. This beta should not be used for regular play.

Version SS2CPC Helper 3.20.4 - Season 3 - February 2023 or later contains all of the above fixes. You can check your version by looking at the top blue entry in ModOrganizer 2. If you do not have the blue entry, or it does not say that, you are out of date. (At the time of this post, SS2CPC Helper 3.20.4 - Season 3 - February 2023 has not yet been uploaded.)

Thank you all for your understanding.

Ok, let me rephrase: are these available for download yet? I don't find them in the latest SS2 City Plan Mega Pack update.

They wouldn't be in the Mega Pack since that was published in January 2023.

Any of the City Plans that were completed their entries are listed under the City Plan Contests on the Available Add-Ons wiki page. See Season 3 - Bonus Rounds - Oh those Fairline Hills!

At this stage, any mod added location plans are unlikely to be included in a megapack in future.
 
I figured that Out, i Just didn't find the plans at NexusMods because i searched for "Fairline Hills" and Hills is missing in the plan names.

Nevetheless, i still couldn't find the plans ingame. Pra's settlement mod is listed before the plans in the modlist, still the Game tells me that there are no plans, neither in the City Management Desk nor in the red workshop.

Hmmm.... If the mods are installed and enabled, but not showing up, maybe (always a maybe with this game engine) the tool in the City Manager holotape might fix it. If you open the holotape (or use MCM) and go to Tools > Advanced Tools > Reset Building Plan Caches, that might fix it. I sure hope you have luck with this, as it sounds like a frustrating bug.
