do the paths inflate your wealth?

it seems that firethrowers from combat extended dont work on the paths

was the mild conflict between natural paths and fluffy's desired paths ever patched? its what @sgthanzmullersw mentioned in 2023.

Is there no way to remove a path or build over it?

natural paths and fluffys desired paths colides a little bit

It needs to Cost something! It's to OP!

Would love to see this include options for Alpha Biomes Terrain types.

I'm sorry to bother you, but could we get the ability to blacklist certain terrains from being affected by this? Some modded ones just don't make sense.

is this good to go with biotech? RimPy says its not up to date.

Nice!

Updated to 1.4

A 1.4 version would be cool

I think that just adding

<Beauty>-3</Beauty>
<BeautyOutdoors>0</BeautyOutdoors>
<Cleanliness>-1</Cleanliness>

would remove the need to touch the filth rate

The gravel paths should have been clean but kept the filth

I agree with the 0 filth generation in order to make it similar to a natural dirt path. It should not be a clean tile however. It should have kept the original -1.0 dirt value

Can we change stats? Walk speed for instance?

Not sure why but when I click on the dirt path, light dirt path and farm paths in the architect menu my ui disappears until I managed to deselect either of those three things. Not sure why, not getting any sorta bug report either so I have no idea what is going on.

This issue only started today as well.

Is there any way to just add this to floors architect tab instead of having it with it's own category?

I was going to try to download the slightly older version from your GitHub, before the August 13 update that removed filth generation, because I wanted some filth. (I guess you could say that I like it dirty. :P) But I discovered that your GitHub only contains the latest update and does not contain actual releases...

Well, this has been a feature that has been requested since I published it. One problem I see with allowing some filth to generate is that the pawns will start to clean dirt from the dirt path which doesn't seem realistic either.

So the last update removes all filth generation entirely? Not even a little bit could have been left in?

I would agree that paths should generate less filth than natural terrain, such as dirt, marshy terrain and mud. A path is compacted, with less loose material, and likely rather dry. But...

I do not think it makes sense that a dirt path or sand path would generate absolutely no filth at all. In real life, walking down a dirt path and then walking straight into one's house to the carpeted living room is frowned upon unless one wipes their shoes off on the welcome mat first.

Or is this another case where quality of life and such trumps even a semblance of realism?

Awesome, love that!
Had a check with 4 times speed in an old base that used these almost everywhere and just seeing how my roads did, love it a lot!

Update: Removed filth generation using the new stat, filth multiplier. Thanks Arnovitz for pointing it out!

No they dont
Infact it works great as a cave floor with some mods that add extra mushrooms Etc.

does plants grow in the path?

That sounds interesting! Ill check it out when I am back home (sometime next week)

Just checking in. Could the new "filth multiplier" stat help reduce the dirt on dirt problem? For example, the straw matting tile is set to 5% while most tiles are 100%.

thx mate

Update: Added Desire Paths support to this mod so you don't need the extra patch anymore.

I don't know if this is intended behavior, but paths (at least the dirt one) override terrain affordance. ngl it was useful, but probably a bug

Pls can you make that it willl work right with Desire Paths?

Bit weird that these get filth on it.
Would almost think it should only get blood, mud and anything that looks natural on it, no?

Great mod. Awesome way to designate buildable terrain in the swamps while also keeping it free of any vegetation.

does this work like natures pretty sweet where if colonists just walk a certain route enough times a path is made?

I even have it on the suggested mods list for use with Biomes! :D

Hey! This mod is great and I honestly adore that it exists. It's perfect for more primitive or nature-friendly colonies.

does this work with multiplayer?

Just gotta say, I find myself always needing this mod on new saves. Thank you!

@Fluffy Thank you for taking the time to add this! I do have some questions although I'm not sure what your tag is on discord, I sent you a friend request on steam.

Hey, just getting back to you about compatibility with Desire Paths. I've added a DefModExtension that should allow you to specify your paths to be used as the generated paths for specific terrains. It's not ideal, but it's a start.

Have a look at the patch file for Ice terrain, you should basically be able to copy/paste that with some edits. Feel free to reach out to me (I might respond faster on Discord) if you want me to change anything else.

Hello everyone, I've been trying to figure out how to stop filth generation, but it seems like it's not possible. Both <filthAcceptanceMask> and <filthGenerated> results in errors. You can try and think of it as path maintenance (E.g. removing twigs and leaves that have fallen from trees) for now until I figure out how to fix it.
@TerraggosaurusRex, @SpaceMilk, @Arnovitz, @SquirrelWizard

@RadZerp - To stop floor paths from accepting 'natural' filth filthAcceptanceMask needs to be set (to adjust the FloorBase default of allow all). Tested GitHub pull request provides example.

Agree with Arnovitz. Would be nice if dirt paths weren't affected by filth, just seems weird. Otherwise, this is a fantastic mod.

These look great, the only minor problem is that filth/dirt tracks on them, so sometimes I have to clean the dirt off my dirt paths.

@murky just search 'change map edge limit' and you'll find a mod for that

@murky (mic broke) I'm not able to work on any of my mods atm since my country is under lockdown and my computer with all of my relevant programs is at my other place. I'd recommend trying out dev mode and the 'set terrain' mode.

could you make this so that you can build right up to the edge of the map, or is that hard to code in? (i dont know much about modding) seeing the paths end like 10 tiles from the edge mentally hurts me

does filth get tracked on these paths?

@Indestructible Thanks for the suggestion, ill check it out

@RadZerp I saw you were talking with @red about paths forming over time. The Nature's Pretty Sweet mod does this. You should check it out.
