Simple Free hand wave breaker

I really like jeronij wave breakers but like most simcity stuff it's only horizontal or vertical and grid restricted.



I thought I'd try to make my own free hand style wave breaker by plopping rocks along shallow waters next to a road. Something like this.

First I'd raise the entire terrain at God mode. next I'd make a flat line at level 0 (the ground height for sea ports) and right next to it I lowered the terrain a couple meters creating shallow waters.


This is how the base of the wave breaker looks when I lowered the entire terrain back.


Next I ploped rocks from what is available out there, the only thing that looked descent enough are CP boulders.


I could then add any shore walls. jeronij walls or marrast embarkment.



Now if I had plopable concrete blocks this would look very good and be very useful in drawing freehand wave breakers. The blocks should be dirty off white and gray and possible to plop them tightly and on shallow waters.

I don't have any BATing skills but it sounds like a fairly simple task and I'm pretty sure it's going to be a popular download.

Thank you if anyone is going to take on it.
