So good that its now the "Going Green" DLC if you want to pay Paradox $4.99 for this exact mod

Fixed version:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2858887180

having an issue my garden plots keep randomly catching fire

better than going green

I have a little problem ScriptSystem Error : (GardenPot2Remote) RUNTIME ERROR : [string "..."]:271: bad argument #1 to 'Spawn' (string expected, got nil) i play in steam version without DLC

Awesome!

This mod so good the devs stole it, 10/10

i'm confused did the dlc actually take assets/code or something and steal it or just the concept?

So they stole stuff from this mod to for DLC.

Yeah looks like it, so my answer was Recycling 4.0, grab it from the link below.

this is littraly being sold as DLC (not beeing rude to you)

Yesss! Thank you!

Grab the improved Recycling 4.0 over here:

This version is now End of Life, but will stay online for archive reasons.

I can't hear you people screaming enough. I said: Are you ready for Recycling 4.0??

Holy shit yess!

Are you ready for Recycling 4.0?

Let me know if you happen to have some last minute ideas which could be implemented.

You asked why views skyrocketed for this mod. Its because the top review on the DLC is a link to this page

Recycling 4.0 is coming soon!

New features include:

- RecycleDesk will be rotatable and has bigger sprite to give space for all recycled stuff it finds.
- improved RecycleDesk script now throws found stuff neatly on stacks to prevent workers around it swarming allover the place to stack found stuff.
- RecycleDesk now also finds half rotten but still eatable Cabbage which goes back to kitchen.
- added Recycling Worker, to operate the desk and give reform classes.

- improved Unsorted Trash script now knows when it blocks a door and repositions if needed.
- Unsorted Trash scans surrounding area for more Unsorted Trash and when found will combine.

- Recycle Bin now produces Super Compost instead of Fertilizer.

Recycling 4.0 is coming soon!

- Super Compost will help Garden Pots grow much faster.

- changed the Garden Control sprite to deal with hidden outdoor light beneath it.
- improved Garden Control script to reduce lag: it now distributes all jobs neatly per Update() cycle instead of everything at once for all Garden Pots in range.

- Garden Control now auto spawns materials needed for the Garden Pots and keeps track of them to minimize Supply Trucks showing up with garden materials. In theory there should be no trucks needed to arrive when having a Garden in your prison = less traffic jam.

- sprite added for when lightning strikes the garden.
- added button to toggle lightning strikes on/off.

- some more plants and bushes added.

This and perhaps more will be released as a new mod (no ETA known yet)
Stay tuned!

Man Paradox just basically copied your mod and put a price on it

@AristeiaX It's still there I see it

unsub resub/remove mod folder, you didn't get the mod downloaded succesfully.

Recycle desk in my game won't work. It only show one block and give me an error in Room Requirements "Failed Recycle Desk".

Nice job !

I don't know if that review was removed by the author or Paradox / Steam but it's gone now! :/// But I'm glad I saw it beforehand. Thanks for a great mod! It adds a lot of layers for sure. Challenging but great!

@murgh : yes, the top one review of this game talks about your mod. hence the views.

Ah ok, well more green stuff available to grab here:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1496865982

@murgh I think it's because the new DLC from Prison architect was released two days ago, and the DLC's content is similar to this mod apparently :) a comment on the DLC was sending the link to this mod, its how I found it out!

Lol the views of this page skyrocketed yesterday and today, is there some external website talking about this mod or something like that?

Hi, What's the difference between the mod you created and the DLC they are selling?
Looks like they should have had another inspiration?

Nice to see a free DLC

@Turnop : They stole their own property ? Wow that is weird.

err. this looks exactly the same as the new dlc. Is it ?

Looks like Paradox loved prison life so much and they want to be a guest in yours as inmates. :D
How did they stole your mod at least they should've gave you credit.

You know, i heard the same complaints when rimworld released empire, funny that

caught them red handed...

woooo a free $10 mod, thank you for creating this

Paradox straight up stole this mod and sold it for $10 wtf. How is that legal

hll yeah absolute chad

Take it down? Fk that, I'm improving it even more

imitation is the highest form of flattery. please dont take this down

This mod got some rendering issues with the latest game versions and the garden controls can use some code optimization to stop it lagging every 15 game minutes when it spams jobs on all garden pots at the same time. This should be done gradually for each pot instead to prevent anoying lag spikes.

I'm busy updating this mod which will be released as Recycling 4.0 when it's done.
Meanwhile this version stays online for archive and will no longer be updated from now on.
Grab the 4.0 edition when it gets published (no ETA known yet).

Hopefully I can make it combined compatible with the latest game version as well as the old Anniversary 2018 edition, that would be nice. We'll see, no promises made

hopefully, you don't take that great mod down, once paradox release its garden dlc (next dlc, it might be your garage mod :o )

If you're using one of the the Recycling mods, then besides a bin also put the Recycling room nearby a Cargo Helipad/Station configured for Exports (recycling ends with garbage going to Exports, not the old Garbage room).

Also I do recommend putting one or two bins by your road terminals if you are using advanced roads 2.0, at least by the deliveries area as when unboxing stacks garbage is made.

Mod works great, seamlessly updated from recycling (1.0) to 3.0 today. No huge changes, but it certainly seems to be more indepth and stable. I tend to make lots of trash since I am constantly building/destroying parts of my prison, so right now 34 recycling desks and 100+ bins are being used. Mod still works great, even if my exports area can't keep up

The best way is to make a circle of pots with each set to different thing

Hehehe, yes it can complete, you just need to figure out how to achieve it. I've put this nasty little grant in there by design. Usually all grants are dull, but this one requires some more attention to detail.

I see, also the grant of gradening is reseted everytime - it says "harvested x" but then it resets and i need to harvest it again. the grant never complete it self.

So, adjust the room to the prisons needs to deal with garbage? This is just a logistics issue you created, nothing mod related.
