I love this mod!

All good, cool patch!

I use quite a few mods that provide extra floors/walls/rock types, and was getting sad at inconsistent coloring. So as an experiment I have made a patch which does some more 'greedy' searching for things to recolor: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3557479886

The downside is there is a risk it will recolor things it shouldn't as it is just searching based on names, but I haven't spotted anything so far with my modlist.

@Enrico I hope you don't mind me uploading, the source code is included if you wanted to integrate it, although I am sure it could be cleaned up. It is of course based on what I could understand was happening in the base mod, hope that's okay. Let me know if not and I'll take it down.

Hope well get other variants of textures. Total diffrent from this. This ones look to anime-cartoonish. As for me...

Update 23 Aug 2025:
- Fixed Regrowth 2's boulders not being recolored.
- Fixed VPE's rock constructs failing to spawn.

There are a couple of compatibility issues with the Regroth 2 mod. Most notably, meteorites fail to load textures when both mods are enabled. Additionally, Regrowth boulders don't inherit the non-default colors from Better Mountains. Any chance any of this this could be fixed on your end, @Enrico? Just in case i'm also asking Helixien.
