Grass types in maps

Post by ccowan2126 »

Just a quick question: why is it that when someone creates a map with a certain type of grass that is not the normal "field grass" found in most base game maps, that grass is NOT available to use in the Landscaping tools?
I landscape a lot on the maps that I play on and have a hard time replanting areas where I have taken out a structure and do not have the same grass to plant back. Makes the whole area look weird having to use the standard field grass when the other grass looks so short and even.
Would be nice if creators would give us the same grass to work with.

Thanks for listening.

The reason is the map maker has not enabled it as a storeItem.

Thanks for your response. Is there a way that I can enable these myself?

Yes, the paintable foliage extended mod, only available on the Maize Plus Discord: https://discord.com/channels/6995898639 ... 3627264031 Look in the useful-stuff-no-chitchat channel you can find it there. It works for maps based on the US map, but if you're handy you can easily adapt the xml to add in other stuff.

I don't know anything about how to navigate Discord. How do I find "useful-stuff-no-chitchat channel" channel.
Thanks for your patience.
