I have no idea about the "Landscape editor" either, but I'd have imagined that everyone knows to find mod items in the Mods tab of the game. I didn't expect to find them in the list of residential buildings where the vanilla ones are located.
Also, if I understand the issue correctly, this problem (if it is one) should apply to all buildings that have the self-heating ability, because this is how I was told it gets scripted into the ini file.
If this is out of date by now, I'd love to know what the updated script changes are.

@r_amiroff thanks :) the ones I used as reference didn't have balconies, but I will check the ones you mentioned, for a potential project later on (my list is huge though).

Хорошая работа!!! Только в этих домах были балконы со стороны двора и подъезды проходные. Например как в Климовске по улице Ленина

@Comrade Joe They do not appear in the list of residential buildings. They are type $CIVIL_BUILDING so they appear on the CIV menu when Landscape Editor is enabled. If you know the name of the building "1930s..." then you can search in under Mods, even without Landscape Editor enabled. People download the mod expecting to see it listed with all of the others, and they don't see it. Most players probably have no idea how to access Landscape Editor mode.

If someone is building one of your apartments after starting in 1960 the game expects them to be using a residential apartment building that will need to be heated. It will work for people, and as someone interested in early starts then it is a nice asset, it's just not obvious to everyone how they would find it.

Just explain to people in the description how to find the assets in the Mod menu.

hey just noticed these comments, I don't understand what issue you're having.
This mod's buildings have self-heating enabled, and can be built without problem whether you play with heating enabled or disabled, as far as I could test. They appear in the list of residential buildings.

@76561198059729641 You don't see these mods because they have heating disabled, which the game takes to mean they are very old houses only available before the normal game start (1960 on). The game wants all residential buildings you construct to require heating during winter, otherwise it is regarded as a "cheat".

I don't seem to see mods in residential?Why？

Good job! Here is another such option. With exits and balconies to the courtyard.

I made a Mod Monday video that includes your mod.
I hope you like it. :)

Ιs it really so hard to accommodate your game with what is available?

I accept your point of view, but please add another two-way version

Yes, I'm pretty much aware of that, I've been "studying" soviet architecture for the passed 1-2 years.
I even made the mod with the help of repeating sections, which is why it was pretty straightforward to reduce it. But in absence of photos or blueprints of the building I try to mod, I usually don't like taking liberties.
this building from the 30s however was not built with panels but with bricks, and although the district I found it in has a few copies of it and it clearly has a repeatable motif, they're all of the same length. In absence of access to its original blueprints I can't know if this standard design had length variations. A book I have on Soviet avant-garde/constructivist architecture shows many examples of such worker apartments built in late 20s and early 30s, it's clear that almost always they're based on one local standard design and repeated in the microdistrict, but I haven't seen variations of the same design.

The fact is that this house has already been built according to a standard design: this can be seen from the repeating sections. Accordingly, you can vary the number of entrances as you like: this would not affect the realism in any way. This is a phenomenon of Soviet typical construction. I know the place where the one-story "Khrushchevka" was built.
You can see it in the panorama. Typical one-story panels are visible behind the fence.

So, I added one shorter version, hope it accommodates everyone.
I'm not too much into making variations of things I don't have RL examples of.

Good job! Please add more versions in 2-3-4 sections.

hehe thanks guys ^^
Haven't thought about a shorter version, might consider it but no promises. I'm preparing the skins mod now.
Crackhood you pretty much nailed it ;) it is the micro-district in question, though the building that faces the road is slightly different.

Great work, Comrade! Can You provide shorter versions?

Really cool thanks, also I think I found it https://www.google.com/maps/@58.0564902,38.8166606,3a,75y,99.74h,98.61t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sVgn4OXsf_-cUr0PnTWVzYw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en

Yes! More 1930 stuff! :D

well done!
thank you for sharing.

That's really great! First consructivist style building in library. And it looks really nice.

great work, comrade! thank you!

thanks

I think I can see iron bars in the windows....
