KDM Cim Petro Gas Station

Description
Introducing the "KDM Cim Petro Gas Station", the immediate successor to the minimally popular "KDM Public Restroom". Someone suggested that I make a gas station as a complementary building to the public restroom building. This is also the reason why I made it ploppable, so that the player can choose where to build it, and to spread out the distribution of gas stations to something more realistic (nobody wants to see a row of growable side-by-side gas stations stretching down a boulevard).

This ploppable building has the same benefits as a park (similar to a restroom). I chose this perk because honestly I think a lot of Cims would be happy being close to a place where they can refuel their cars. I guess I could have made it a ploppable that caters more to tourists, but it's just a gas station. No big deal.

ALSO, as an added bonus, I've created a video of my entire workflow--from start to finish--of building this ploppable. So, if anything, the KDM Gas Station can be viewed as a didactic example, adding to the numerous other great "how to" videos springing forth on the internet as we speak.

View the video here: http://youtu.be/8L6KEytwez8

Also, as with my previous model, I've published all of the source assets for it on my github here: https://github.com/kabojnk/cities-skylines

Sorry guys, I've been away on work. Strange that the mod is suddenly giving an LOD null error. I'll get on this. And tone down the brightness.

Have you abandoned this?

If not, something is identifiably wrong with this building. Going on 2 weeks I've been consistantly getting debug errors coming from the KDM Cim Petro Gas Station -- both every time a city is first loaded in a play-session, as well as occasionally throughout play. The building does not even have to be physically placed, but merely active in the mods list.

As a side-note, this is the first and only mod I've seen the "broken asset" error message for. Of course, unsubscribing to this gets rid of the problem -- but I'm rather fond of your work. Addressing this would be much appreciated.

Broken assets:

420464608.KDM Cim Petro Gas Station_Data: LOD xys null [BrokenAssetException]

Details:
No details
BrokenAssetException: Broken assets:

420464608.KDM Cim Petro Gas Station_Data: LOD xys null

(This is the error message I get every time upon loading *any* city while this mod is enabled, even when the building is not existing physically in the city)

I love the concept and model. Thanks, too, for the how-to video. But I agree that the colors are over-saturated. It's too bright to go in my city. But, still, thanks for the effort.

I agree with MVincent, if it wasnt so bright I would immediately get this.

I love that this is ploppable, Gasstations should be on corners...so now we can force it o

Really love the idea of a ploppable gas station. Thanks for this.

A little critique (not insulting or anything) you may want to tone down the colors a little bit and/or add a bit more detail to the texture. Loving it so far though!

Great work! Thanks for the making-of video, as well.
