Yeah i thought about creating a new category but that's a bit beyond me I think. Maybe I can make a temp mod just for the generating process that lumps trees into different categories by just changing their .mdl files. Cheers mate.

@killjoy - It's been 4 years since I did this mod, so I don't remember that much. But I think for each tree that are categories, so maybe a new custom type could be made and used by a terrain generator instead of a standard type. But it's not straight forward and making this mod took a lot trial and error. I think I mainly reused the standard format, and didn't succeed in adding new functionality to the code.

I'm curios how you'd go about setting tree asset generation to populate with specific trees, like you can when placing multiple trees with the brush tool.

So instead of using the metadata defined trees under "Conifer" or "Broadleaf" you can place specific tree mixes like "Scots_pine" or mods like spackys "AlaskaCedar_RT_1".

@agunter999 - Setting the UI scale to 75% will fit it within a screen height of 870 (rather than 1080 at 100%).

Is there any temp fix for this? "- The settings list fills the screen at 1920x1080 and 100% Interface Scale. For smaller resolution heights or larger UI scales, it may push the Generate button off the bottom of the screen. (This issue has been reported to the developers.)"

@RocketRanger - There are two elevation groups of trees : 'Forests' have lower level deciduous type trees and conifers are higher. But less uniformly that the game's default generation. 'Hill Slope' trees are also generated around ridges and valley slopes at higher elevations, the types of these trees can be changed.
The description of that mod you linked suggest it will be used as conifers by generators if that mod is activated. But I haven't tried it.
It's probably best if you have a play around with both mods and see if they can do what you want.

P.S.: in case your mod already allows it, can you give me a hint, via which settings i can achieve it? I would also like to integrate thes types of trees if possible: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2247194383&searchtext=

Hi, does this mod allow to build different trees at different height levels like they occur in the reeal world? I would like to populate my alpine map like it is displayed in this figure: https://biberberti.com/fur-teens/themen/schutzwald/hohenstufen-der-vegetation/

Many Greetings & happy new year!

@ritknat - Thanks. If you're generating a temperate map, it shouldn't produce palm trees. Maybe you have a tree mod enabled that is interfering with it, in which case, only enable the other mod after generating the trees.

Hi, cool tool. I just would like to adjust the Trees the generator selects. Do you think that is possible? or how does the script select the "normal" trees. There are Palm-Trees in the forests generated - I would like to switch them of.. Do you think you can halep with this?

Thanks for this! I was sick of removing all the Scots Pine that the generator puts at higher locations.
