[MOD] Water Mod

Hi!

Chessmaster, not to put a damper on the work you’ve put in here, but this is a bit of a no-no. As RP mentions, this mod basically:

  1. Copies all of the hydrology service from the main Stonehearth mod
  2. Makes a few code changes
  3. Overrides the entire existing Stonehearth hydrology service with the modified one.

Great enthusiasm (really!), but this technique is utterly un-maintainable. It prevents the main Stonehearth mod, and anyone else, from enhancing the hydrology service.

Also (and this is just my personal thoughts on the matter), it would be great if you guys could restrain yourself from using the modding framework to reveal features that are obviously in development. The team has worked very hard on making an incredible, kick-ass water simulation, and stuff like this steals their thunder.

We haven’t revealed water for a reason, and would like to present it to you in all it’s glory, not as a half-implemented work-in-progress.

That said, the colored water enhancements are pretty neat. Once the hydrology service is complete it will be interesting to see how that sort of mod could be properly added to the game.
