📋 About This Mod
First you craft the shovel, then you use it to place plants. It works like the hammer, but has its own custom menu so it won't clutter up your build menu.
Plants are organized in the shovel menu based on whether they're hanging, without a pot, or potted.
For plants that you can walk through, you need to aim at the base of the plant to delete it (or the top of the plant if it is hanging). For potted plants, aim at the middle of the pot to delete it. The delete button is the same one you use for your hammer, and you can also delete plants using the hammer.
More plants will likely be added soon.
Thanks to sbtoonz, Gravebear, and RockerKitten for all the help - couldn't have done it without you guys!
