Not a whole lot, if any; right now I’m having trouble even getting my Maple Trees to work. I’m really not much with code, so I can’t really do anything fancy on my own.

I haven’t tested it, but, yea, I think I saw the method for that in the game code;

From large\_oak\_tree.json:

```
"model_variants": {
     "default": {
        "models": [
           {
              "type": "one_of",
              "items": [
                 "file(large_oak_tree.qb)",
                 "file(large_oak_tree_2.qb)",
                 "file(large_oak_tree_3.qb)"
              ]
           }
        ]
     },
     "autumn": {
        "models": [
           {
              "type": "one_of",
              "items": [
                 "file(large_oak_tree_autumn.qb)",
                 "file(large_oak_tree_autumn_2.qb)",
                 "file(large_oak_tree_autumn_3.qb)"
              ]
           }
        ]
     },
     "spring": {
        "models": [
           {
              "type": "one_of",
              "items": [
                 "file(large_oak_tree_spring.qb)",
                 "file(large_oak_tree_spring_2.qb)",
                 "file(large_oak_tree_spring_3.qb)"
              ]
           }
        ]
     },
     "winter": {
        "models": [
           {
              "type": "one_of",
              "items": [
                 "file(large_oak_tree_winter.qb)",
                 "file(large_oak_tree_winter_2.qb)",
                 "file(large_oak_tree_winter_3.qb)"
              ]
           }
        ]
     }
  },

  "stonehearth:seasonal_model_switcher": {
     "stonehearth:biome:temperate": {
        "spring": "spring",
        "summer": "default",
        "autumn": "autumn",
        "winter": "winter"
     }
  }

```

So based on that, it’s my presumption the _tree_ controls its changes

Yes, this is the important bit:

```
"stonehearth:seasonal_model_switcher": {
     "stonehearth:biome:temperate": {
        "spring": "spring",
        "summer": "default",
        "autumn": "autumn",
        "winter": "winter"
     }
  }

```

These have to be set up on a per-biome basis and the left row refers to the season names (on that biome) and the second row refers to the model variants names (on the model\_variants component)

So if your Biome has 3 seasons, for example: Lunar Season, Sun Season, Shadow Season (named lunar, sun and shadow) your seasonal\_model\_switcher component would look like this:

```
"stonehearth:seasonal_model_switcher": {
     "my_mod:biome:my_biome": {
        "lunar": "default",
        "sun": "sun",
        "shadow": "shadow"
     }
  }

```

And then I’d need the model\_variants component to have models for “default”, “sun” and “shadow”.

Oh! Thank you, @DaniAngione!

So I’ll need to write a mix-in for my biome to add those to the tree, correct?

</div>

If you use any default trees, yes, you’ll need to write a mixin to add your own biome to the seasonal\_model\_switcher component on the trees.  
(And if you use different season names or models, you’ll also have to mixin the model\_variants component with your new models)  
Please note that this has to be done to each tree size 😛 so… :forlorn:

Alternatively (might even be easier) you could make all the trees new. Even if just recolors (like the “gold juniper”, “silver pine”, etc… in arctic)  
But at least gives you more control over their files without needing a ton of mixins :merry:

You set an unacceptable value for shallow water depth

(or removed it entirely, maybe?)

Okay, I take it back. I became inspired to play around with some concepts for unique plants for the Faewood. Here’s the first up, the Fairy Acacia Tree:

![large_acacia_tree_spring](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/stonehearth/original/3X/a/8/a85d2eb0f42bea44e16d2ec27e98314106a39152.png)

You need to the seasonal model switcher on the tree files themselves. This would presumably be done with a mixin that adds your biome where it normally says “stonehearth:biome:temperate”.

I created a kit with all the ones I found and extracted, though as I state there, I have NOT actually tested it; I haven’t sat and played through the game until a season change yet:

> [@Kitty's Design Corner](https://discourse.stonehearth.net/t/kittys-design-corner/19252/626):

> WARNING: UNTESTED!!! I put together this quick kit that should be able to be used to enable you to have trees in your biome change with the seasons, per the base game’s biomes. Download: [SeasonalTreesKit.rar](https://discourse.stonehearth.net/uploads/short-url/xmkzyRtDWyW3CplpBo0418N3A05.rar) (5.5 KB) Extract into the Entities folder of your biome mod (create one if you don’t have one) Go into the files for the trees you want to affect and change the following line: "mod:biome:modbiome" “mod” should be the name of your mod “modbiome” should be the name of your biome …

I’m so sorry, I guess you misunderstood me. That kit allows you to put stock Stonehearth trees into your custom biome that “may” switch with the seasons. I was referring to making your own custom trees that have multiple variants (like your fairy acacia) that change with the seasons. attached is my .json for “small\_willow\_tree” in my biome. I’m not sure if I need to add the lines from your kit to the manifest because I don’t use any of those trees. I’ll also attach the manifest for you to look at. This results in the tree variant that is labeled “default” to show up in game no matter what season and never change.  
small\_willow\_tree.json :

```auto
{
   "mixins": [
      "stonehearth:mixins:tree",

~~I’m honestly not sure; your tree is set up a bit differently than the standard ones, so I don’t know if that’s changing the tree’s behavior. At a glance, it looks more like an item than a tree, which might not utilize the method correctly for all I know.~~

I presume you’re using the placement data because you’re not using Qubicle; if you’d like, you can send me your tree models in a zip or such over a private message, and I can convert them for you so can try dropping those lines?

-edit-  
Or I’m just a mook using old data as a reference… \>.\<
