Transform every patch of unkempt grass on your map into a source of income with Roadside Mowing! No need to accept contracts or navigate through menus — just start mowing and watch the money roll in. Perfect for roleplaying a 'start from scratch' scenario, it allows for a recurring growth cycle without disrupting immersion by using the construction menu.
How It Works:
Engage a mower or mulcher on grass outside registered fields (such as NPC yards, roadsides, ditches, etc.), and earn $3.50 per square meter as you mow. Earnings accumulate and are paid out every 30 seconds to keep notifications manageable. Mowers leave a windrow, allowing you to collect with a forage wagon or baler afterward. Roadside yields are about half of a true grass crop, ensuring continuous collection.
Meadow Regrowth Modes: (Default hotkey: Alt+M)
While mowing, Alt+M cycles through three modes:
– REGROW (default): Replants cut decorative grass as meadow, turning neglected areas into renewable hayfields.
– OFF: Mow without regrowth, leaving flat terrain or stubble.
– REMOVE: Clear existing growth, leaving bare ground for landscaping or construction.
Built-In Protections:
– NPC fields are protected from accidental cutting.
– Pond edges remain intact, preserving map designs.
– Your fields function normally without double-pay or roadside effects.
Quality of Life:
– Work off-field without access warnings.
– Compatible with any base-game mower, mulcher, forage wagon, or baler. Ensure the cutting implement is selected when changing modes.
Compatibility Note:
The REGROW mode is incompatible with RealMower, which prevents regrowth due to prior clearing. All other features remain functional alongside RealMower.
Requirements:
– No mod dependencies.
– Recommended for single player (multiplayer lightly tested).
– PC only.
Tested with no errors or warnings.
