mabako's Hide District Policy Icons Mod

Description
This fine and might I add EXTREMELY USEFUL Mod was created and originally uploaded here on the workshop by mabako some time ago, however he/she decided to leave the Cities Skylines modding scene. Along with leaving the scene he/she also made his/her mods unavailable for people like me who depended on his/her creations, kind of selfish and annoying if you ask me :P

I take no credit whatsoever on this mod upload as all rights belong to mabako, as such I can not also provide the source code for the mod as I just uploaded the copy of the compiled mod from my copy in my "Cities Skylines" install's "workshop" items folder (you know, where the game places files you subscribe to on the workshop). Also I don't even know how to compile mods for this game or any game for that matter 0_o

But here is the GitHub link for all of mabako's mods, if you are interested in it:

https://github.com/search?q=user%3Amabako+skylines

Anyway, "Why did I upload this file?", you might ask. And my answer is, "I need this mod badly but as I said I can't mod and recompiling mabako's source code IS NOT an option for me and I'm also guessing, it isn't an option for others as well", so I did the one other thing I could think of and that is uploading my copy of his/her mod (from my copy as I already mentioned) so others and myself who uses this mod can have an easy access to it again.

I wouldn't have to do this if mabako didn't pull out his/her mod/s from the workshop altogether. And truth be told, his/her explanation on Reddit is kind of selfish and self-centered IMHO:

http://www.reddit.com/r/CitiesSkylinesModding/comments/33zguw/wont_be_able_to_maintain_my_mods_in_the_future/

".... otherwise I'll simply set them to private and that will be the end of that." -- mabako

Seriously~!?

Setting your mods to "Private" just because you don't want to work on them anymore~!? 0_o

And not even considering the fact that people who can't mod might still have a need for your creation 0_o

If anyone who sees this re-upload of mine knows how to contact mabako outside of Reddit (because screw Reddit's clutteredness which reminds me all too much of old mIRC) and Steam (because he/she has also set his/her Steam Profile as Private), please tell him/her to please make his/her mods available again.

And if he/she does make his/her mods available again, I would gladly remove this upload off of the Workshop.

And to think there are quite a few "useless" Spammy mod uploads on here that deserve to be removed immediately...

for example these:

http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=413667015&searchtext=
http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=424519455&searchtext=

Whose uploaders might I add need to be smacked in the rear side for posting useless crap on the workshop.

...but folks like mabako just decide to make their wonderful creations unavailable for those of us who depend on them :(

janemos and Cahos Rahne Veloza: It has moved to Toggle It! mod.

@Janemod:

Keallu's mod does hide district policy icons and you can even set it on the mod's hopbar if you wanted so you can toggle hiding them off and on.

Nice of you to keep hosting this still working mod. Thanks!

(@ keallu: the Hide it! mod doesn't give me the option to hide these icons)

For everyone experiencing problems with this mod, then go look at:

Hide It!

It can do the same and much more.

@kartonbaba:

How the hell should I know :P

Just go back a page, these comments are so few, and you'll see said "mabako" posted a comment saying how he appreciated me not taking credit for his original work.

Also I no longer play this DLC laden piece of crap (Cities Skylines that is) because this is nothing more than a traffic management simulator AND NOT a city building game :P

Thank you for doing this :)

@GordonDry: I can't help you out with your issue man, if you've read the description for this upload you'd have known I'm only hosting this mod and have no idea on how it works.

But by merely basing a guess on the mods you cited I'm thinking you have too many "Districts" mods installed. To find out if this mod is the culprit simply uninstall this and see if your issue clears out, if it does then there you go. Now regarding if you'd want me to fix the mod then as I said no luck there I'm afraid.
