Bugfix: No cotton, No Machines

There is a common bug in FOTS, where, after your trading port has been bombarded or occupied by an enemy, even after repairing it, the trade route to the western powers is not properly reinstated.

You will not receive cotton or machines by them anymore. This makes it essentially impossible to construct the final building in the military chain, the cotton weaving plant and other.



Since you can't initiate diplomacy with foreigners, there is no way to reset the trade node.

The only way to fix it is to deconstruct ALL your ports, and reconstruct them. A painful, costly and slow solution, which only lasts until the next enemy ship bombards you.


If this bug happens to you, you can use this mod. It simply removes machines and cotton as building requirements.


Cheers,
