TownieMarker? What is it?
I was looking for a city hall to modify... and I searched on town by mistake (instead of city) and I saw this in S3OC

I'm intrigued. How does it work and why does the game need a townie marker?

Oh gosh! I think I may, may, may have used this way back when to generate townies, but I have totally forgotten how it works. Someone with a better memory probably can advise.

Sounds intriguing Can't remember seeing it in the game, but perhaps in metadata?

Maaybe it's a marker for a work, like to generate townies? Hehe i'm not sure actually, nor saw it when looking around in S3OC, but, there are quite some hidden game objects in S3OC like that shader tester thingy and moviemaker chestboard, etc..

I may be remembering using it in 2 instead of 3. But that makes it sound like it is in the files for 3 also.

We could always extract, make sure that you categorise it, and break the game :P

Hmmm...interesting. If this thing is responsible for making townies, maybe someone can make a modded script for it, and it won't generate new townies anymore.That would be really useful, cuz many players are struggling with uncontrollable townies pool size.

It likely already has a script linked to it, else I guess EA wouldn't have shipped it with the game. But yeah! That would be pretty cool :D
