Title: Moisture Dataview Mod
Post by: CasperVg on September 30, 2012, 06:45:57 AM
Hi everyone,

Awhile ago Ennedi asked about the Moisture data that Maxis left in the game, and I made a small mod for it that makes it replace the Health dataview, thus showing the different values for moisture that game uses. Is this useful during gameplay? Not really, but I figured it might be useful to people who are interested in editing terrain mods and/or tree mods, as those depend heavily on the moisture levels in-game.

Some relevant pictures of the mod in use (red means dry, green moist)

Enjoy, it's in the attachment. To use it, put in the plugins and open the health dataview in-game. To disable it, remove from plugins.

Very interesting, i suspect this will be useful in tuning tree controllers.
