Help with starting to mod.

[herghostuk]

Hi guys

I am loving the game and after creating mods for minecraft some years back I thought I would take a look at Cities modding.

Now I am a VB.net developer so my c# may look a little off to you guys, but I *think* I know enough to write in C#

What I am trying to do for my first mod is just return the current currency amount to another project. However I am getting a StackOverFlow on the get of currentMoneyAccount as I am just stuck with how to get the ingame money, obviously the current code just causes a loop.

This is all my code

using ICities;
using System;


namespace CitiesSLPlugin
{
    public class CitiesSL : IUserMod
    {
        public string Name
        {
            get
            {
                return "CitiesSLCompanion";
            }
        }

        public string Description
        {
            get
            {
                return "A windows desktop companion app for Cities: Skylines";
            }
        }
    }


    public class getEconomy : IEconomy
    {
        public long currentMoneyAmount
        {
            get
            {
                return currentMoneyAmount;
            }
        }

        public long internalMoneyAmount
        {
            get
            {
                return internalMoneyAmount;
            }
        }

        public IManagers managers
        {
            get
            {
                return managers;
            }
        }
    }
}

I have uploaded my files to Addons/Mods/MyMod and it appears in game with no problems.

Now what I assume is when the game runs it uses the compiled dll from obj/debug? Is this correct because I believe this is where my issue may be.

Basically once the game is running I want to load the compiled dll of my mod into a seperate project and output the currentMoneyamount.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
