This mod is a minor adaptation of the Visible Terra Pretta mod by Craluminum. This mod adds rising particles from any peat blocks nearby. The particle parameters make them visible even for blocks buried several layers deep. OOB, the particle density is much lower than that in my other mods as peat deposits tend to be large and deep, creating a particle blizzard at the normal settings..

If you like this mod, support Dana, who is a one-person mod machine. See https://mods.vintagestory.at/vtp for more info. All bugs are on me though. I will be releasing source as well.

People have suggested combing this series into one mod but I will continue to support them as separate mods for three reasons:

  1. Do everything mods already exist.
  2. Expecting players to all know the technical details to modify config files is unfair to those who are too young, too inexperienced, or simply not interested in the tech, and just want to play the game. The built in mod manager makes it trivial to turn off ones you are not using right now and turn them on when you are, without touching the config directory.
  3. The indivudal mods support individual behavior and colors customized to their target blocks to make indentification easy at a distance.

Enjoy.

In their present form, the mod manager lets you turn them on and off without editing a config file. Much easier, faster, and friendly to the less technical. Also, to have different settings for each 'flavor' would require a bloated and redundant config file. I plan to keep them as is.

You should take all your "Visible Particles" mods and merge them into one mod with a config to enable/disable each one individually ;)

Yeah, you know, thinking about it, it's too bad you can't smell a peat bog.
