Sponsor Funding Not Changing

[RexNerdorum]

Since the update, my own personal mod (created in the Mod Editor but not uploaded to Steam) isn't working right. Of the several things wrong, the one that makes me feel the most dumb is that I cannot change the sponsor funding anymore. There's the regular option in the Sponsor field, which I changed, and there is also a new (to me) option to change the sponsor funding with a 'const' command, which I also changed. I iterated on those, changing one, then the other, then both, then neither, but in all cases the starting funding is $4000M.

I have similar problems with Rocket Payload (always 35000 kg) and the starting rocket payload loadout (always empty).

Any ideas?

I'm glad I found your entry, cause you're not alone on that. Same happened to the Money Mod my brother made for him and me.

If you make a bug report post, feel free to quote me as a second person to whom this happens.

I have the same issue. I even found that when you copy over a default sponsor, it yields the same result. Limited cargo space, incorrect starting funds and nothing in the cargo hold of starting rocket.

Same here. This has been driving me mad for the past two days. Sponsor mods from the workshop are working fine, but when I am making one myself, I just cant get it to work. All the values are shown correctly in the overview, but as soon as I go to the payload screen, cargo capacity and funding are back at default and the specified rocket loadout not loaded. Also, number of applicants is not working either.

What the hell am I missing?!

I've never actually used the mod editor, but if you use

items.lua:
return {
PlaceObj("ModItemCode", {
"FileName", "somescript.lua",
}),
}

somescript.lua:
function OnMsg.LoadGame()
ChangeFunding(AMOUNTOADD)
end

It's been stated elsewhere but an ID is needed. Used to be include by default but now it is not. I use a GUID generator to create the ID.

Shoot! Thank you so much. Works!

Bro, thank you! I just tried my hand at making a simple custom sponsor and it just wouldn't show in the menu of sponsors. This tip did the trick. Awesome!
