Works in 1.6?

Nice mod :)

Since this mod has been reported working in 1.5 I added it to the No Version Warning-mod
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2599504692

Works perfectly in 1.5.

1.5?

Can you add support for Clean textures?

Quick note: there's a soft & benign incompatibility with Fertile Fields, which can be exploited to create dirt at no cost.

In details, the terraforming tool of FF allows recovering dirt from packed dirt tiles, even if those were laid on terrain that didn't originally contain dirt, such as stony soil.
It's a very minor issue, but worth mentioning for people playing on harsh biomes where proper soil is scarce or nonexistent. It can nullify the hunt for soil ingredients (most notably fertilizer).

Cherry Picker can disallow specific FF terraforming actions, but FF also has a generic, dynamic terraforming tool that I believe cannot be turned off without disabling terraforming entirely.

@Maoman You can use Smart Farming for planting trees in rows, if you're fine with it looking less natural.

I have a request but I've no idea how hard it would be to implement.

I like to plant orchards and then fill in all the spaces between the trees with packed dirt because it looks really nice and clean but still natural-like. Unfortunately because colonists don't plant trees in perfect tidy little rows and instead slightly randomize the placement, filling in the packed dirt is pretty tedious--you can't place it over the trees or they'll chop down the tree.

Might there be some way to automate this process? Just, have a button I can click that would automatically place a packed dirt blueprint on every tile that does not contain a tree?

Can this be made to work with "Clean Textures"? That would be awesome since Toony Terrain is out of date.

Thank you!

@Arky - cherry picker can do that. Those are called ScatterableDefs

Is there a mod that remove those scattered dark sands over our paths?

Great mod, would be even better with compatibility with Alpha Biomes.
Thanks for your work

Yes to the first. Never heard of the second.

Does this work with Desire Paths and Natural Paths?

Support for all the terrain types from the Regrowth mods addd.

Some of the custom soil types in Regrowth: Core are also not supported yet, it would be great to have those.

Another vote for Alpha mod compatibility..

I am trying it within an alpha biome, but the type of floor doesn't allow me to do so.
It is a "Dense Grass" terrain.
Would there be a way to make alpha biome compatible? :o

It is causing a desync on Multiplayer mod. I wonder why? It still does the task but we have to resync everytime a pawn does the work lol

Alpha Animals adds three terrain types. Could you add compatibility for these so that packed dirt/sand can be applied on top of them?

defNames:
AA_FertilizedSand
AA_SuperiorFertilizedSand
AA_PollenSoil

@Hamstirly I think you're misreporting a bug. I use this mod and that doesn't happen.

@OwlChemist
Would you consider making these surfaces not get the filth "dirt" on them - like normal sand and soil? As it is with a small colony (which is when you want to use this mod the most, the early game) my colonists spend more time cleaning the packed surface than they get from the faster walk-speed.

Wonderful mod I've used for ages. One bug I've noticed: if traders walk on ice, they'll turn it to packed dirt. Yet to see if it reverts back.

Great mod, should be vanilla :D One thing annoys me is that 1 wide roads looks too unnatural/big compared to flagstone i.e, would like to see that my packed dirt/sand roads blend like the sandstone in the enviroment. would that be possible?

thanks

Yeah

does this allow the packed dirt to be removable? I remember the original reason I used Yoann's mod was because i had permanent packed dirt on my map that could never be undone. Just wanna be sure before I build some in my current game with your mod.

They both use the same def, so sure. Packed dirt is a normal vanilla def, after all.

Okay, so this is a dumb question but I have to ask: you say it will skip packed dirt if I already have it, but would it work if I _replaced_ VPD with this? I have a hunch the answer is "noooooooooo" but just in case, I gotta ask.

Yet another must-have. Very much appreciated

@Owlchemist It works perfectly now ! You're a steel-eyed man ! Thanks for the help !

Aright @Peyo, should be fixed now.

@Peyo de la Mancha - sorry somehow I missed/didn't get a notification about your comment. Thanks, I'll look into it!

Hi. I think I have found an incompatibility with the Soil Mod (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=725747149) . This one adds two things, a soil transformation for crops and a basic dirt replacement for smooth stone floors.
However, as I tried to create a packed dirt path with your mod, it appears it can't be be done on this "non-natural" dirt. Instead, I have a blank area, pack dirt can't be applied on it. For what I see, Soil mod adds a kind of "layer" on smooth stone instead transforming it into vanilla dirt, or perhaps changes it appearance and features but it's still a stone floor, I don't know.
Anyway, I guess you can't do much about this but if you can test by yourself and see exactly what the problem's, could you add a note in your mod's description ? Thanks.

There isn't really such thing as snow terrain in the game. Snow is a status applied to the terrain below. Now, there *is* ice though. But an ice road (packed ice?) seems like kind of a stretch, hah.

@Owlchemist
Hello, you should do a packed snow version too.

Me too :(

i thought this said pocket sand at first :(

ok thanks

Oh, right. I used Dubs Paint Shop to match the colors is all.

in t Open the windows say only can be made off steel and wood

Lookup the mod "Open the windows". It's great ;)

in the first pic ¿how you make stone windows?
