📋 About This Mod
Plant Growth Heatmap Visualize plant growth with a dynamic color heatmap. Shift + Y → Toggle trees Shift + C → Toggle crops Shift + P → Toggle all plants All keybinds are fully rebindable in the settings menu. Fully grown resource plants automatically switch to a yield-ready indicator for quick visibility. Compatibility Compatible with Timberborn 1. 0 Works with both Folktails and Ironteeth Supports every vanilla plant in the game Modded factions have not been tested, but should work without issue Just make sure keybindings don't overlap, especailly because this uses a precious three of them! Color System Plant growth until harvest: Red / Orange → Newly planted Yellow → Around 50% growth Green → Fully grown Regrowing plants between harvests (Pines, Blueberries, etc.): Green → Freshly harvested Blue → Mid-regrowth Magenta → Ready to harvest again Performance This mod does impact frame rate, especially on maps with massive amounts of vegetation. I experienced roughly a 5 FPS drop. On a test save with: 500 beavers The entire map covered in trees Both crop and tree overlays enabled However, when the overlay is disabled, performance impact appears to be little to none. I also tested the mod on Zeddic's colony, The Evergreen, which contained over 28,000 plants being recolored. Surprisingly, I experienced virtually no FPS loss while fully zoomed out. The recoloring system is intentionally staggered over multiple update cycles to reduce performance spikes. You can especially notice this during startup, where plants gradually transition into their heatmap colors over a few seconds. After the initial pass, the refresh rate is reduced to one-quarter speed to improve performance. This may occasionally cause visible jumps in color transitions, but it does not affect gameplay readability. Save Compatibility This mod can be safely added to or removed from existing saves. It does not alter gameplay systems or modify save data in any destructive way, so feel free to try it out withou
