Buildable Trees and Bushes

Description
I created this mod to enable the addition of trees and bushes to my builds for decoration purposes.

I’ve used the models from the base game data files and adapted them in such a way that they can be placed like any other block in the game. Keep in mind this also means grid cleanup applies same as any other unpowered block, so you may want to add them to a larger grid or adjust your cleanup settings.

Most of the models you’d be familiar with in existing vanilla game worlds, however there seem to be some extra models that I’ve personally never seen spawn before. There are a couple that appear broken or incomplete, I’ve included them, but what you see is what you get.

All variants require 10x steel to build in survival mode, or can be placed in creative mode. The trees have a collision/build area of 1x1x3 blocks, the bushes 1x1x1 blocks. They only show as 1x PCU, however this is unlikely to be an accurate representation of how much they will impact on your system resource.

The various trees and bushes are fairly self-explanatory when you place them, but a special note for the ‘Broad Leaf Bush’, you can change the colour of the leaves using the standard colour palette editor.

Hopefully you find this mod useful. I’m an amateur when it comes to making mods. If you discover anything that is wrong or have some advice that may help others, please leave a steam comment below or visit over on my discord channel and I’ll do my best to fix or share as applicable.

Known Bug: some Alien trees attached to station grids can cause that grid to loose collisions, meaning your clone falls through the floor. I have checked, but I don't know what causes this or how to fix it (yet).

Is there going to be a fix?

removing the mod fixes all the issues.

alien trees or not.. mod is busted and broken.

this mod is broken.. it converts the grid to uncollisionable. making the grid uneditable.. even after copy paste with the trees built. 90% of the grid loses its collision and makes the grid unediable and unusable.

there's definitely a bug in this mod.after a while the game acts up

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2582405176 this mod has everything I want/need, EXCEPT, it's got WAY to many blocks in the G menu, and clutters up the G menu like crazy, the blocks need to be condensed into the stacked icon version aka (scroll wheel selection)

This is the mod that's in the list I use, I wish they would be expanded on, like at least 1 block for each planet's ground scheme, so that I can "plant" (place) the trees of planet in their native soil

Yes, I think your over thinking it, I'll send you a link to, not actually moving grass, it's a static picture of the texture, like one of the block skins

It's something I really wanted to do, but from a game engine perspective, grass being a voxel material is completely different to block models. Not saying impossible, but you'd need to be a expert in blender, and I don't even have it downloaded. So it's a flat no from me sorry, at for the next 5 years, which is how long I think it would take to learn. Is there a terrain blocks mod I don't know about?

Grass in block form, like the corresponding terrain theme piece that each tree type would sit on, for instance a alien tree would be on a alien terrain block, was just a thought, you don't need to act on it, I currently have three mods in my list that all do tree/bush adding, it would be great if I could condense it to just one mod, to shorten the list, no there's no mod out there that has everything I need, yours is close, but doesn't have the terrain blocks, also doesn't specifiy if it handles both large and small grid?

Hi YungPro. Are you talking about boulders or having grass in a block form?
