Hi OptimusPrimordial, my sushi chefs are worried and have to roll their sushi in plain paper now.
It tastes aweful... Can you please update? ;-}

Can anyone reading confirm as DEFINITE (instead of guessing) whether this mod works okay in RImWorld 1.4 (ignoring the version difference warning)?

+1 1.4 tag

@OptimusPrimordial I think the mod works, please add a tag or update to version 1.4 :)

Does this need an actual update for 1.4 or is it just a matter of tag?
Thanks for the lovely work OptiPrim!

New update: If you're using biomes! Islands you can now harvest kelp, seaweed and sargassum for raw algae.
The idea for this update came to me after seeing Sergkart's ocean biome mod. The harvest values and work time are balanced around the growth rates of each type of seaweed with seaweed and kelp growing faster than this mod's algae but yielding less and sargassum taking longer and yields more. Of course the more you harvest the more water you have to walk through so I think wild seaweeds will quickly become non-viable even with it spawning everywhere.

Tiny update, you can grow algae in hydroponics. Now you can have algae on your SoS2 spaceship or if you use seeds please you won't have to touch the non-functional aqua growing zones.

@OptimusPrimordial - Ok. Maybe i will release it with the Arrowroot stuff i made then. So many potential aquatic plants!

Damn you figured it out, now i can make cactus use sandy grow zones.

Maybe, still, love algae as a source, its so under utilized as a potential survival resource, especially in spacer tech.

Naah, I'm good. You're welcome to use the mod as a template to make your own addon though.

I also second the below comment :D A great addition to survival and farming. Making some less edible, and more along the lines of medical in nature, so heavily water based maps can have a much larger range of growing, even if its not ideal.

Please add Red Algae, Brown Algae and Blue-Green Algae!

Algae is growing slower than watercress and lotus (3.5 vs 3), less yield too (5 vs 6).

It is still good multi-purpose crop :D

Ohhhh, I love it!

Rimfeller doesn't have oil only chemfuel and you can't shove algae into crude oil cracker it's a different industry.
