Description
Work required to sow trees is decreased from 4000 to 2000.
  • Safe to add to existing saves
  • Also safe to remove from existing saves
  • Has no problems with any other mods
  • Place anywhere after Core in load order
  • Non-Steam downloads please scroll further down
Package ID: V1024.EffectiveLumbering

Why this mod was made
After a certain patch (right now), sowing trees requires 4000 work, but before that patch, that value was 500. The patch made planting trees a huge pain in the butt.

So, I have decided it would be best to just have sowing trees requiring 2000 work. This would still reflect the situation that planting trees became harder (+1500 work), but would not make tree-planting extremely undesirable.

Hi there!

I see no problems with that. I am basing the decision on the standard industry practice that once a system is out, it won't be changed in a backwards-breaking way.

I am not going to review whether it works for 1.6, because I have faith from 5 years ago it's gonna work for 1.6.

Advance version tagging is dangerous. Simple as the mod may be, you clearly aren't active and confirming compatibility.

This mod is so simple that I dont need to touch it to make it work in newer RimWorld versions (unless Ludeon themselves changed the recipe system)

You may notice how this mod is early-tagged as "compatible with v1.5" even when I dont even know what v1.5 will contain.

Currently rebuilding my modlist after over a year away from the game, does this still work? I see the 1.4 tag but it hasn't been updated or even commented on since 2021

@Bullwinkle Yea, it's 2021, we are not rewarding the stupid or lazy. Seriously takes notepad changing a single number to fix YOUR problem. Do it and be happy, don't and stick to the misery that is your existence.

I'm too stupid and lazy to do all that. But you make some fair points and have some good ideas! You sure you don't want to offer up a second version of this mod that lowers the work from 4000 to 1000? Then I can just click Subscribe and be done with it? :-P

@Bullwinkle

That sounds good as the next step, but would go way out of scope. Also, the tech is too hard.

Besides, I have heard of a mod In-Game Def Editor https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1568772413 that allows you to modify the numbers in-game. For the tech-savvy and the nerds, that mod would be a good start to really "modify the numbers in this mod" since recipes are simply yet another kind of defs. If you are careful enough, you could even transition fully to that Editor and just straight-up drop this mod too. But for the general users, this mod should do.

(Or, you could just go and get yourself a non-Steam copy of this mod through GitHub in the link above and modify the value inside the patching XML to your content, that works also)

Love the mod. Would love it even more if I could type in a number and that's how much work it takes to sow a tree. Just a thought. Must-have mod for some biomes.
