Scripting Grass

nwfan87

Is there anyway to turn of the grass within a certain area, either by using scripting or some other mechanism within the toolset that I've missed? Or perhaps there is a way to control the toggle grass on and off like you can with the menu, using scripts?

Grass is a module-wide setting which only the player can change.

There are some new functions which let you change tiles. It seems you have to explicitly recompute grass (perhaps for performance reasons). You could experiment - I wonder whether you can change the entire area to tiles with no grass, recompute grass, then change all the tiles back without recomputing grass.

If that works, test what happens if the player toggles grass off then on - it might undo your hard work.

Personally I find grass a PITA which I advise players to turn off, but that's just me.
