I've dug around ruins and come up with no bony soil enough times that it would certainly be useful to know that there's something to find near a given ruin. Though maybe I'm just having bad luck :).

You're welcome. The mods do work for near surface blocks like meteoric iron. Bony soil is somewhat different since it's around ruins. Not sure you would save much by getting a particle cloud there. I have not played VS for a few months after running out of things to do that interest me.  When the next story dungeon drops I may return. If I have time, I will consider a bsoil mod.

I have no way to modify the visibility distance. Check your graphics settings for things like render distance. Otherwise, you can edit the config file for color, etc.

Thank you so much for NOT combining all your tweaks. I know it's an additional hassle to maintain them all separately. Your hassle is saving us from our hassle. 

Are the particles visible for blocks that are not on the surface? If so, would you consider doing one of these for bony soil? 

Is it possible to increase the range at which particles are visible? You gotta be pretty close to see them...

@malnaur I was just curious if it was possible to adding them into the system ^^"

There are no png images involved. Don't know what you mean. You can control particle dynamics and color but that's it.

sorry I didn't get any notifications about your reply. 
I'm pretty sure I did but I'll just do a fresh install to be safe. 

Also what's the process of adding custom png images to the config?

I just tested this again and I do not see the rewrite happening. Did you accidently install v1.0.0 instead of the newer v1.1.0?

Hi there. I just would like to mention that the issue of rewriting the config is still present. is there anything that can be done on my end to fix this?

Malnaur Thanks for the suggestion. And yeah, with that mod I was indeed able to find some. It seems my "issue" is that I switched to smoother terrain gen from Plains and Valleys (or now Vanilla Plus testing) and it so happens that most of those patches are almost or entirely surrounded by other soil, so that there's no exposed sides to it. So unless I read the tooltip of every block I walk on I'd never even see it because the grass on top is of the same color than for other soils. I guess it would've been cool if the game would have some color differentiation of the grass depending on the soil type, or have maybe some little flowers spawn on top of high fertility soil or be part of the grass texture on them, or something else that would subtly indicate its presence. Your mod would definitely be too cheaty for my tastes. :P

The mod is not designed to work with movement as rapid as flying. The combination of processing all neabry blocks and the fairly slow generation of particles means you won't see them as you zoom around. Sorry.

Try "blocks overlay" with a large radius. If you stop and go, you will find what you are looking for far away and can then fly to it.

I am unsure of Malnur's mod but using Dana's mod if you move by too quickly, the particles don't have time to start.  I typically run about 15 blocks and pause to give the particles time to materialize.  They only start when you are nearby.

Thanks for making this.

Unfortunately even with this mod and flying around with speed 5 I still cannot find any high fertility soil. Terra Preta was rare but not THIS rare. Are there any mods that could conflict with generating this? At first I thought it was the Plains and Valleys mod, even though I doubted that terrain gen mod even touch the blocks / materials itself, but even after flying around in the ugly vanilla terrain I could not find anything. I'm really at a loss now.

Good catch. This was a bug inherited from the parent mod. Fortunately it was corrected there as well so I could make a speedy fix which seems to now work as expected. Let me know if it's still a problem.

Great mod, but I've got one problem. For some reason, the Config.json for it resets after Leaving a world (I think this is when it's happening at least)
So I'm able to configure it to be just right for me, and play with it functioning fine, but the next session with it I have to reconfigure it.

You're welcome. Happy hunting.

Thanks for this man. You're a real one
