[FSF] Simply Soil (Legacy Version)

Description
This version is discontinued please use the new version of Simply Soil available here.

I suspect like myself all anyone wants from a soil mod is a way to grow their crops anywhere they choose without absurdly unbalanced fertility rates or textures they might not like. This mod adds two types of soil, Soil and Rich Soil that have the same fertility rate and look the same as the default game. These soils require the Garden Soil research and can be built on any terrain for free at the cost of a bit of work. These soils are layered so you can use the remove floor option to get rid of them if you change your mind about the location.

Thank you for letting me know. I've uploaded a fix. It seems in 1.1 its mandatory for floors to require materials however the dev log does not throw an error without it. I've added a requirement of 1 wood log for tiles to fix the issue.

Given the need of materials I might look into redoing my mod so it uses soil which can be bought/dug up.

Yes the soil itself is not a terrain replacement its layered like carpet or wood. It's not intended to be used with a till soil mod. Not sure why it wouldn't show up in the UI anymore though. Below is instructions on how to make it a terrain replacement if you wish.

Remove the field <layerable>true</layerable> from my terrains and I believe they should work like normal terrain. My mod will be under

The simple soil seems to have problems with the Tilled Soil mod. Layed some simple soil down, went to till it and the pawn ended up digging up the soil like it was flooring instead. After that happened the simple soil just straight up doesn't show up in the ui to be placed down anymore o_o;.

After researching it you can find it under floors. Both of them are stacked together under the single tile so click and then select either normal or rich soil.

Good to hear you got it working.

Yep, It' works. That's exactly what I was looking for. Brilliant!
I'll look into making patches because I do find I have to redo customizations when a mod updates.
Cheers again for help and your useful mods :)

No worries. I make xml patches and run them via my personal tweaks mod. That way I don't have to manually update them all the time.
