This is a mod for a game called Factorio, compatible with version 0.14. This mod will make trees reproduce, die, and decompose as the game progresses. Evolution is tile-dependent; while work went into tuning the properties as provided, they are accessible in config.lua for adjustment.
-
The algorithm keeps a cache of the player's movements; to prevent modification of the entire map, only regions near the player's activities (configurable in config.lua) are selected for updating trees (if any) within their area.
-
The provided configuration prevents trees from spawning on concrete and stone paths--pave your base to prevent them from encroaching.
-
Debug mode shows information relevant to the mod's operations, but some may find it cluttered.
-
Multiplayer is untested.
