NEWS:
I'm afraid I don't see myself returning to SE modding anytime soon, and this mod has been abandoned for quite a while.
Check out the version by Junrall at https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2820001381
Thank you for using my mod, and thank you to Digi for the original it was based on. :)


Remember to leave a rating! :D

With Soil Tool you can place ground voxels/terrain/ground/dirt/grass in survival.
Finally a usage for all that pesky stone!
All you need to do is to build the tool in the assembler along with a few Soil Bags as "ammo", and pick your soil type using CTRL+SHIFT+Mouse wheel. There you go.

To change between all the available soil types, use the following commands:
Right click with tool or /soil help - Show help screen.
CTRL+SHIFT+Mouse wheel - Change soil type.

Currently available soil types:
  • Grass
  • Alien Sand
  • Alien Grass
  • Mars Soil
  • Moon Soil (New)
  • More will be added soon.

Planned features:
  • More soil types.
  • A small ship tool, just like the welder and grinder.

Known bugs:
  • A bug was reported that causes the players animations to not work properly. An apparent temporary fix is to disable the mod and delete the file "mipMapTextureCache1.pb" .
  • None at the moment!
  • An issue has been reported, where a purple material appears in seemingly random places.
  • The mod is non-functional.
  • Fixed! [MGE]LeonserGT reported that the /soil set command does not work. This is still unconfirmed, but I am looking into it.

NOTE: This mod is based off of the Concrete Tool mod by the amazing Digi!

Old news:

Unfortunately, I have little time for this project at the moment, but thakyZ has updated the mod and sent me the code for review.
I will be checking that out as soon as I can and incorporate his code, assuming everything is kosher. ;)

Finally got back to this project. It is now fully up to date with completely new controls.
Right click with the tool or use "/soil help" command to learn more!

This mod is currently broken. I have exams coming up, along with a few other things, but I will get it fixed as soon as possible.
I am now back! The mod should be fixed now! If you have any issues or ideas, please let me know.
I am happy to be back. :)

I am currently a bit busy with life, but I am trying to squeeze in the time to work on this.
I have not even played SE for about a month. Updates are coming!

Thank you for 1000 subscriptions!
Thank you everyone! This mod made it to the front page of the Most Popular This Week list, within the first few days!

Is it possible to update this tool with the other soil types? Particularly the Earthlike soils without grass and the new Pertam soils.
