Rogue Chimneys

I've no idea what's causing this so hopefully this is the right place to post:

First encountered these yesterday on a job from Kirov to Stavanger, after getting off the ferry in Nynashamn (the one in the picture is growing out of a house next to the ferry port exit!); I initially thought they were just appearing in the DLC North area until finding a bunch near Leipzig on a later job. Mostly they're in cities, though there was one in the middle of the road at the Sweden-Norway border. You can drive through them, and they shake like there's an earthquake going on.

On ETS2 1.27.2.3, all map DLCs and that profile has ProMods 2.16 + Project Balkans 2.4 + RusMap 1.7.2 + Russian Open Spaces 4.0 + EAA 4.2 for v1.27. Any thought on where they're from and how to send them back there would be gratefully received.

Since that definitely is not a vanilla game issue (as there's no Kirov in the vanilla game that I am aware of), I would get the coordinates of where you see that, make a new profile and check the mods one at a time to see which one is causing it, then talk to whoever made it. Perhaps they know what the problem is. I would start with one of the Russian map mods, as I had problems with one of those mods myself. I don't recall which though...

I've seen a similar bug but with gas stations flagpoles and in that thread the issue was with Promods map, which you are using also.

Something changed with flag poles. Some mods will cause this.

Thanks everyone, time to spend ages mucking around with maps and teleporting around the place like Dr Who on mood-altering substances.

After I finish the current job... :D

I think it's ProMods, I only have that one as far as map mods go. These can mostly be seen in ports. They're kinda scary to approach and drive through :shock: :? :lol:

According to a Steam post one of the "real company mods" causes it too.

This is why I don't use map mods anymore. Some of them have some great ideas, but all of them have little glitches I don't care to deal with.
