📋 About This Mod

Fruit Tree Tweaks is a mod originally by aedenthorn. He did almost all the work, I just stumbled around some code I didn't even know to try and update it since some guy on the official forums complained it wasn't working with 1. 6. If you encounter issues, disable the mod and please post a bug report. A full log of the changes from the original mod are available upon request, but the spark notes will also be listed in the changelog. The source code is also available on my Github.

DESCRIPTION

===========

This mod lets you tweak fruit trees in the following ways:

  • []Prevent crops from stopping fruit tree growth[/]

    []Prevent craftables from stopping fruit tree growth[/]

    []Allow planting fruit trees next to other trees[/]

    []Allow planting fruit trees on any map and most valid tiles[/]

    []Allow fruit trees to bear fruit in all three seasons[/]

    []Change how many days it takes for fruit trees to mature[/]

    []Set max fruit per tree[/]

    []Set number of fruit grown per day, or a random range of fruit grown per day[/]

    []Allow all fruit trees to bear fruit in all seasons including winter, optionally[/]

    []Set size and color variations to make individual fruit look slightly different from each other on the same tree.[/]

    []Set custom days maturity for silver, gold, and iridium quality harvest[/]

    The default configuration is:

    EnableMod = true

    CropsBlock = false

    ObjectsBlock = false

    TreesBlock = false

    PlantAnywhere = false

    FruitAllSeasons = true

    FruitInWinter = false

    DaysUntilMature = 28

    MaxFruitPerTree = 3

    MinFruitPerDay = 1

    MaxFruitPerDay = 1

    DaysUntilSilverFruit = 112

    DaysUntilGoldFruit = 224

    DaysUntilIridiumFruit = 336

    Debug = true (disable if you need log for another mod, as FTT debug logs are quite spammy)

    ColorVariation = 50

    SizeVariation = 20

    FruitSpawnBufferX = 5

    FruitSpawnBufferY = 40

    You can edit the config in Generic Mod Config Menu or by editing the mod's config.json file after starting the game once.

    !!! CONSIDER POSSIBLE MOD CONFLICTS FOR HEAVILY-MODDED PLAYTHROUGHS. !!!

    Fruit Tree Tweaks uses Harmony which essentially re-writes game code. Other mods using Harmony may potentially cause this mod to function improperly, or cause other mods to function improperly.

    Known Conflicts:

    [*]Deluxe Grabber Redux -- Mostly compatible, but breaks custom fruit quality timelines. Only use Fruit Tree Tweaks with this mod if you intend to keep fruit quality ages the same as vanilla. UPDATE: A fork of this mod by RafiaBe
