Editing Modding (section)

==== For mod authors (using the uploader) ====

* '''Uploader's Publish button is greyed out.''' One or more required fields aren't satisfied. Yellow hint text under each field shows what's missing (folder picked, preview image, title at least 5 chars, description at least 30 chars).
* '''Upload returns <code>AccessDenied (15)</code> after content reaches 100%.''' Almost always: the Steamworks Workshop config has unpublished changes. Go to the top-nav '''Publish''' tab and push any pending config changes to Steam. If everything's already published, check that '''Steam Cloud quota''' is non-zero for this app and that '''Enable ISteamUGC for file transfer''' is checked.
* '''Upload returns <code>Busy (10)</code> repeatedly.''' The uploader auto-retries 3 times. If still failing: Workshop config for this app likely isn't fully provisioned (the per-app Workshop service hasn't initialized in Steam's backend yet). Wait 10 minutes after publishing any config changes, then retry.
* '''Upload returns <code>InvalidParam (8)</code>.''' One of the metadata fields is rejected. Check the diagnostic <code>{"kind":"params"}</code> line in the uploader's status panel - it shows everything that was sent. Most common cause: title or description too short.
* '''Friend's Steam chat opens whenever I publish.''' Steam shows you as "In-Game: Wall Street Raider" while the uploader's native helper is running, which fires friend-presence notifications. Set your Steam status to '''Invisible''' while testing, OR have the friend disable "Open chat when friend signs in" in their Steam notification settings. There's no clean code-level fix.
* '''Cleanup: empty / placeholder Workshop items from failed publishes.''' Each <code>CreateItem</code> succeeds even when <code>SubmitItemUpdate</code> later fails, leaving an empty Workshop item that auto-subscribes you. Visit [https://steamcommunity.com/my/myworkshopfiles/?appid=3525620 your Workshop submissions page], click into each empty/no-title item, and delete it (Edit &rarr; Delete). Also unsubscribe from them via Main Menu &rarr; Workshop in-game.
