And you wouldn't know if there is any other way to reset the city without the button? It used to be a test area, but it doesn't look good next to my other city anymoreyusuf8a684 wrote: ↑03 Sep 2021, 09:46If it is a custom region and not online, it wont have reset city buttons
You can check your map folder and see if there is a .backup file, but you have to know which position is that plot located. After that, delete the .city file and change the old .backup to .citykyoshimine1 wrote: ↑03 Sep 2021, 14:45And you wouldn't know if there is any other way to reset the city without the button?

Hey! I was able to reset the city! I was guided by the steps you indicated, first I went to the regions folder, opened my region folder and located the city plot (in my case: 6_3.city). There were several files with the same name: 6_3.city, 6_3.city.backup, 6_3.city.store0, and 6_3.city.store1. So I deleted the ".city", ".city.backup" and ".city.store1" files. And to the file ".city.store0" I changed the format to just ".city". However, when I opened the game the city still appeared as if it was created, but the plot was already reset. So, to "completely" reset the city, I opened the region.json file (located in the same region folder) and found the following code:yusuf8a684 wrote: ↑03 Sep 2021, 15:47You can check your map folder and see if there is a .backup file, but you have to know which position is that plot located.

Sorry, I may be wrong
Honestly I don't know, at least in my case I don't remember that there was an error when starting the game. What I recommend is that you previously make a backup of your city/region in case there is an error during the process
