A way to draw districts while in natural resource view mode?

[alf810]

For the sake of convenience, usually when I draw out my districts I like to check with the resources view/map to dictate where the best outlines will be, but I keep having to switch back-and-forth between district drawing (which seems to just use normal mode) and the resource map mode.

With Paradox games in general, like EUIV or CK2, you can usually keep mapmodes selected while doing other things. I know this is a city-builder, but that aspect is similar, so is there a way to do this in game or a mod to do it?

lay out a road temporary around the area you want to make into a district and use that for a guideline

finding zones is not that hard btw in normal view mode, bright green is agricultural, anywhere with a big group of trees is forest (you can build more trees if you need more), dark grey is Ore. and a sandy type color is Oil

Thanks for the reply, I agree that, for the most part, you can tell which land is fertile, foresty, ore, or of oil, I guess I'm mostly concerned about the thin outlines - maybe I'm too much of a perfectionist lol.

Awesome, thanks Apples!
