Nature is Beautiful [1.0]

Description
TL;DR: Makes most things in nature have either positive or neutral beauty.

Longer explanation: The sole purpose of this mod is to make sure it is safe for people to go outside and still feel happy. It is not intended to be a major overhaul of Rimworld’s aesthetics philosophy or to balance all aspects of the game. Rather, it’s just a quick and easy mod that makes it easy for people to be happy while outside. To do this, it makes most things in nature have either positive or neutral beauty. Not much else is changed.

Version 2.5 notes:
By request, now supports RimCuisine 2:
- All RimCuisine fruit trees have a beauty of 5
- All other RimCuisine plants are 2

Version 2.0 notes:
By request, I increased water's beauty as follows:
- Shallow water: 1
- Moving shallow water: 1
- Deep water: 15
- Shallow ocean water: 5
- Deep ocean water: 25
Added Crunchy Duck's support for the Impassable Chest-deep Water mod
- If the mod is being used, then Chest-Deep Moving Water has a beauty of 15.
- If not, then it has a beauty of 5
Thanks to Crunchy Duck and Oken for their work on this

Version 1.4 notes:
The following terrains now have a beauty of 0 instead of 1 to make incentive for man-made flooring:
- Dirt (Soil, SoilRich)
- MossyTerrain
- MarshyTerrain
- Gravel
- Sand (Sand, SoftSand)
- Ice

Version 1.3 notes:
- Bug fixes
- Now rewritten entirely with XML patching for maximum compatibility with other mods
- Rebalanced so there is incentive to smooth walls and floors
- Rough stone ground/floors now have a beauty of 1 instead of -1
- Rock rubble has a beauty of 0 instead of -4
- Added beauty of 1 for grass, tall grass and bushes

@nhatanh0475, everything. Game updates are going to break almost every mod because the base game code is likely overhauled is several places.

Secondly, I doubt you intended to come across this way, but your question *can* come across as presumptuous and entitled considering modders such as Thom here do this work for free in their spare time and probably don't have the time or patience to answer vague questions like that from random strangers in the comments section such as yourself :) If you are truly interested in modding, there are some resources available online, and you can probably look at the source code for some of the recently-updated mods out there now too. Either way, you're not likely to going to get a detailed list of source code changes like that without decompiling the game and taking a look for yourself.

After you updating it, can you tell us what change in the game that make mods buggy?

Thank you Thom! Nature is Beautiful is a really great mod and should be in vanilla IMO. Who doesn't love trees?? :)
