Line Tool 0.7.1

Still under active and comparatively early development, but already does all the required basics; the UI in particular is a bit under-developed in this version, and will be improved via updates.




NOT compatible with Extended Managers Library and Prop Anarchy; this is part of a suite of lightweight alternatives to those mods and is incompatible with the way they patch the game.

Designed for use with Prop Control and Tree Control, but either mod can be used independently of the other.

Selecting any prop, tree, or building will show a selection of line modes to the bottom-left of the selection panel (in the same place that road building modes are displayed when using the network tool).

Selecting any line mode will display the line tool options panel, where you can customize the spacing and rotation of items placed on the line.

Left-click on the map to start and end lines, as you would when building roads.

Anarchy: Props and tree placement will obey whichever anarchy mod you're using (if any). Building placement is always 'anarchy on' (as otherwise line placement doesn't work).

Toggled by the fence mode icon, this is a handy shortcut that will automatically place items in a continuous row, like a fence. Note that any "overhangs" at either end of the object (e.g. loose leaves in a hedge model, or an overhanging eave on a building) will be counted as part of that object's width, so you may want to use the manual options instead in such cases.

Note that precise alignment of props in fence mode requires a mod that improves prop precision, such as Prop Control. This is because the game's inbuit prop placement is comparatively low-resolution, meaning that at certain angles, props placed in a line won't properly join up; prop precision mods will fix this issue.

Activated by pressing control when clicking to end a line. The overlay will turn green and the line will be locked to the current position and will no longer follow the mouse, but it's still in preview mode and the items haven't been placed yet. While this is in effect you can adjust spacing and rotation prior to placement. Press enter or left-click anywhere on the map to finalise placement.

When 'step mode' is enabled, items will not automatically be placed when you finish a line. Instead you place items one at a time by pressing the 'Place' button (or the 'Skip' button to skip that spot).

The item that you're placing can be changed between placements - so you can start a line with a couple of trees, then some bushes, then some benches, then some buildings.

Right-click to cancel the line.

This mod uses Harmony[github.com] version 2.2 by Andreas Pardeike via the Cities Harmony mod by boformer.

Doesn't alter any savefile structure, and doesn't even save its own data in the save (there's no need to, it's just automating placement for you, and doesn't touch the simulation at all). Can be safely removed at any time.

Safe for editor use - will automatically (harmlessly) disable itself in the asset editor, but will work in other editors.

Thanks to Mbyron26 for providing the icons.
