TheControlRoomFix
Repairs broken Control Rooms: adds the Micro Cruncher and blueprints, files every resident in the cabinets and staffs the empty Security Guard post so the computer has a login. Works on new cities and existing saves.1.2.0
- Every resident gets a folder. Vanilla files only some of a building's residents, and all its resident drawers share one list. Now every resident of the building has a Resident File in the Control Room, 14 per drawer, sorted by floor and apartment, with no duplicates.
- More drawers where needed: free drawers in tall filing cabinets first, then the bottom drawer of short cabinets, then extra tall cabinets. In rooms too cramped for the game's own furniture search, a tall cabinet is placed on a free spot against a wall, or swaps places with a short cabinet. Anything that was in or on the short cabinet moves to the new one.
- Only people who live in the building are filed. Shop and office staff are left out.
- New settings:
FileEveryResident(on) andResidentsPerDrawer(14). The oldCompleteResidentRosterssetting is gone and can be removed from the config file. - Like the other repairs, the folders are rebuilt each time a city loads. Extra cabinets stay in your save and are not added twice.
1.1.0
- Repaired Control Rooms now have a working computer login. Many Building Management companies have no staff, so their Micro Cruncher had no one to log in as. Each time a city loads, one unemployed citizen takes the vacant Security Guard post, and logging in as them gives you the Surveillance app. Nothing is saved. Turn it off with
HireForVacantControlRooms. - A Control Room now counts as working only when it holds a real Micro Cruncher and blueprints, so rooms that only looked complete get repaired too.
- The plugin ID is now
sm3gm.sod.controlroomfix. Settings reset to their defaults in the new fileBepInEx/config/sm3gm.sod.controlroomfix.cfg, and the oldsod.controlroomfix.cfgcan be deleted. TryAlternateInteractableOrderingandPreferWorkingDeskPresetmoved to the[Fixes]section. Diagnostic logging is off by default.
