1. This happens anytime you attempt to copy a scenario that has already been published to the Steam Workshop.

2. Upon copying a scenario via the "Scenario Edit" page that is currently published to the Workshop, the new copy will retain the same Workshop ID information as the previous when viewing it on the main Scenario selection page.

3. I would expect to have the Workshop Published ID Remove from a new copy, enabling the ability to upload a new scenario with the new copy. This is useful when wanting to modify a previous scenario, but still wanting to upload a completely new item to the workshop.

The offending line of code is on Line 18 of the scenario save file located in '\AppData\LocalLow\Ludeon Studios\RimWorld\Scenarios' >> Your File Name.

<publishedFileId>9-digit-WorkshopID</publishedFileId>

4. To replicate, simply upload a test scenario to the workshop, wait for it to publish, and copy the scenario in RimWorld. You will see the same exact result.


Temp Fix: Simply navigate to the location above, find your file, and remove publishedFileId line of code, save the file and fire up RimWorld. You will then be able to publish the file.

Hope this helps!
