Alright, help with Sponsors please?

[Thallori]

I'm trying to create a near minimal start mod. One where you're forced to buy a rocket as pretty much your first action if you want to start a colony (unless you go with a Rocket Scientist, of course.) I've got it set such that you start with one rocket, they have a cargo capacity of 30,000kg, and only cost a billion dollars when you start with 3.5 billion. Every time I test the mod, it works out fine. When I restart the game, however.. It disappears from the sponsor selection menu.

Remaking the mod and testing it again works out until the game restarts. If I add a decal to the mod, that one will remain selectable while the sponsor remains vanished. Anyone got any idea why?

Are you sure it is disappearing from the game and not just becoming deactivate in the Mod Management window?

 

[Thallori]

Yes, quite sure. I put a decal-mission logo in there to test and that part sticks around.

Just taking a look. Not sure why its not appearing atm

Let me know if it works for you.

Huh. Cool. How'd you do that? It seems like you just removed a line about filtering which would make sense but I'm not certain how it got there to begin with.

I just re-wrote it I think. Done a couple for people now and not sure what I did for each.

I've found the mod tool to be very buggy so if you don't do it correctly first time, when you try and fix it you can't as it picks up the errors. You need to start again from scratch if you make an error.

The empty filter line is definitely a thing which stops sponsors from showing, I've had it happen to me too.

You can always just edit the lua file manually, the reload the game.

If you press the little x just before the input field, it will remove the filter and not just leave it empty.
