📋 About This Mod
SHARDUST'S DARKER WATERED SOIL
Updated for SDV 1. 6
This mod will make it easier to check if you have watered your crops, by making the wet soil darker than the basic game has it. Useful before getting sprinkles. Include Winter Season. You can turn on/off each of the three tillable dirt files in the config file that will appear after you open the game once after adding the mod or through the Generic Mod Config Menu in-game.
(NOTICE: not compatible with other mods that also change the hoeDirt and hoeDirtDark sprites.)
And that's it! Enjoy!
