Thanks for the helpful hints - I am using a mod now that lets me keep my buildings (only the ones I want; both custom and Vanilla) in my city.
I might do RICOs again in games I'm not sharing, but have been working on an 81-tile "islands" gamesave that I'm sharing as Non-Rico because a lot of folks I chatted with said they wouldn't sub to a gamesave that had RICO requirements, as they were too frustrated with the present situation,....so I removed all my beautiful Ricos (miss them) and recreated the gamesave for the subscribers .... and then, once subscribed to, a user can always put RICOs in the city if he/she wants .... I even used RICO to set the residential household count on my custom houses and high-rises (just in case someone does want to do RICO, they already have settings for it). but the game will be shared as non-Rico - for the subscribers.
:^)
PS: Hope your computer gets fixed and life becomes good again.

No worries, Saki. Thanks for the information, and my condolences on your dead computer - that's something that I went through and it was NOT a happy time.
I've tried creating 5 of my own highrises (just from Vanilla buildings - and definitely not anywhere near as beautiful as yours) and discovered that, as you said, being a "residential" building rather than a Unique Building does limit the footprint to a dinky little 4x4. Soooooo frustrating......
I also figured out that even though I make Level 5 residentials and plop them where I want them in my gamesave, they still change into other buildings, still level 5s, after a few hours. So I'm dealing with trying to figure out how to stop them from doing that right now. So I totally get where you are coming from.
I'd love to see a duplicate of this building but as a Level 5 Residential, High Residential building, rather than a Building, Unique Building.
That way I can create a neighborhood of it in my non-Rico gamesave share to Workshop. As a Level 5 Residential, High Residential building, it would (if the new user did not want RICO on their computer, as some don't) still have households in it and not revert to a unique building with no homes in it. It would , of course, only have 25 households in it till the games new user subscribed to RICO, but at least it would be a residential and already in the game when and if the new user subscribed to RICO.
As it is now, when plopped in a Non-Rico gamesave, it is just a monument that workers and visitors are in --- not a residential building.
Any possibility that you would Asset Editor this building for this purpose?
