HOW TO USE EMITERS

1. Research one of them and build
2. Select and configure a recipe for this emiter
3. If you selected a recipe that needs a 'Terraforming'-Area, then make a 'Terraforming'-Area/Zone in range of the emiter
4. Watch the emiter working
Hint: Replicator needs a Stockpile-Zone

HOW TO ACTIVATE LAVA ANIMATION

1. Needs a mod which have lava terrains. (Like: SZ_StonesAndTerrains or SZ_Terrains or Advanced Biomes)
2. Research 'Tectonic Emiter' under 'Terraform' tab and build it
3. Make sure you have some lava terrain on map
4. Wait for the random tick to watch the animation
Build more Tectonic-Emiter to trigger more animations.
Configure your own lava under the mod options or let it as default.

HOW TO FIX PROBLEMS WITH OLD SAVEGAMES

1. Load the mods, which are marked for your savegame.
2. Sometimes its enough to load the savegame, then let the time run for some seconds, save the game and reload again.
3. Some errors can be fixed by removing/destroying all working tables and benches, then refer to 2.
4. if you should have errors because of missing minified, then try to enable mod option 'force minified creation'.

Hey, nice mod, thanks for your work!
I got a little problem. Every time I reload my save, the temperature adjustment I made using the weather emiter gets lost. It still show "temperature +20" in the outliner, but the temperature on the map decreases. As soon as I activate the temperature bill on the emiter after reloading, the outliner gets resetted and shows the new value beginning at 0 again.
So basically, every time I load my save, I enable the temperature + bill again. Would be nice if it would keep the temperature after reloading.
Beside of that, the info text of the replicator is very long. I'm using nice research tab and the text is too long for the window to fit. The research button is not visible in the windows anymore. Well, might not be your problem, since nice research tab is not your mod, but maybe shorten the description a little xD

Possible issue with Fishing.

Terraformed a Deep Ocean tile to Shallow Ocean tile and fish dissapeard. Had an exisiting fishing spot which said fish stcoks had been reduced to 0. This number rebuilt back to the max amount of fish. However after fishing at spot at end of task no fish were caught.

Also graphic of the fish swimming in the water disapeared.

However the fish in the "fresh" shallow water remained with the graphic of the fish swimming.

Looks like the replicators Remove Filth option doesn't work anymore, which is the best usage of Nuclear Material.

something's not right about this mod
i've not checked the debug menu, but for some strange reason, i can't terraform over thin ice.
until this is fixed, i'm migrating to Terraform instead.

"As Tasmaldar said, it's tedious to single-click dozens of individual tiles to remove overhanging mountains. I'm not a programmer, but I remembered that previous versions didn't have this problem. I compared the current DLL with the 1.4 version using dnSpy and found that this property was missing in the new designators:

"public virtual int DraggableDimensions
{
get
{
return 2;
}
}"

I added it back to my local version and it works perfectly. I'm just curious: was this removed for a specific reason (like performance or bugs in 1.6), or was it just an accidental omission during the update? So far no issues, Thanks for the great mod!"
