TranslationsI am looking for volunteers to help translate the mod into the official languages. For those interested please find the project in the discord link. CSL2:CODEMODS -> mods-wip -> Tree Controller: Translations. Fully or Partially Supported Languages: German, Spanish, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese Simplified, Polish, French, Japanese, Korean, and Russian.
Detailed Description:Includes a tree controller tool that lets you change the age or types of existing trees and/or bushes on the following selections:
  • Single Tree
  • Whole Building or Net
  • Radius
  • Whole Map
Please note that changing types of trees for networks is not persistant and revert as soon as anything touches the network. You cannot change types of trees using 'Single Tree' nor 'Whole Building or Net'. Eventually I may remove the ability to alter types of trees with 'Radius' and 'Whole Map'.
For plopping trees and wild bushes this mod adds choice of age(s) and the option to enable random rotation.
For brushing vegetation this mod adds choice of age(s) for trees and wild bushes and sets of vegetation for forest brushes. Some pre-made sets are:
  • Deciduous (Exluding Apple and Poplar)
  • Evergreen (Pine and Spruce)
  • Wild bushes
Settings button to remove all trees and plants that are not part of a road, building, park, etc. Intended for those that want to start a new map but redo the trees and bushes themselves. (Contributed by phillycheeze)
Custom setsHold Ctrl to select or unselect multiple types of trees using the toolbar menu. Then hold Ctrl and click the custom set button to save a custom set. Once a set has been saved, click the custom set button to select that set. Hold Ctrl while switching themes to maintain the custom set.
Tree GrowthIncludes the option to disable tree growth over the whole map but it excludes any trees within specialized lumber industry areas.
To set all trees to Adult and/or Elderly, Select: Landscaping -> Vegetation -> Change Age Tool -> Whole Map -> Select Age(s) -> Right click on the map.
This mod doesn't automatically set street trees or trees in buildings to a specified age, but you can change them with the tool. This feature may be included later.
Seasonal EffectsIncludes the option to make deciduous trees use dead model during winter. The dead model is not scaled based on the actual age of the tree. Deciduous tree growth is paused during winter. Specialized lumber industry areas are excluded from this feature.
Please note, you must either disable this option or press the 'Safely Remove Button' to remove the mod safely during winter. During any other season the mod can be readily removed. If you do not enable this option the mod can be readily removed.
The mod has sets of seasonal color variations for trees and plants including a curated set by me and year round spring and autumn colors. Custom color variations set has been removed and will be replaced soon in a new mod called Recolor.
CollaborationAlgernon and I have collaborated to allow for age, sets, and multiple vegetation types selection using Line Tool.
SupportI will respond on the code modding channels on Cities: Skylines Modding Discord.
