Level skip on the board screen doesn't work

[Anonamort]

The original game had an option (/cheat) to select the level. This would be done on the board screen just prior to starting a level, whereby the user presses and holds 'C' whilst moving the hidden cursor to the level of choice and clicking.

Steps to Reproduce

1. No save game to upload - occurs prior to save.

2. Start a new campaign. At the board screen, press and hold 'C' and try to select a level. It won't work.

Save Game

Not applicable.

Expected Behavior

Successful change of level to the selected option.

System Information

CorsixTH Version: *e.g. 0.63

Operating System: e.g. Windows 10

Theme Hospital Version: *GOG.com

For jumping to a particular level you can set debug=true in the config file, and select your desired level from the debug menu in game.

Hi @TheCycoONE I am new to this game. I would also like to start from a specific level of the default campaign.

Can you give me detailed instructions on how to accomplish this.

@rishiraje You need to find the folder where your game's config.txt file is kept. On Windows I believe this is usally C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\CorsixTH but you can find it using the in-game settings menu under "folders".

If you open config.txt in Notepad (or similar program) then scroll down you should find a line that looks like debug = false. Change that to debug = true and save the file.

Then, when you open CorsixTH again and start playing any level you will have a new toolbar option called "debug". In there is an option that lets you skip to any campaign level. You can ignore the other stuff in that menu.

I hope this is helpful.

IF:
If you use the recommended setting to "save config and saves in appdata" (during installation)
The location of the config.txt file is:

C:\Documents and Settings$(User)\Application Data\CorsixTH\config.txt
(search %appdata%)
And if you are running as administrator, so you need to modify the admin appdata!

ELSE:
The location of the config.txt file is next to the .exe
