Dynamic Plants

"Quell, what are you babbling about now?"

Excellent question, random voice. So, in-game we have dynamic mossy rocks. The moss (green color) is found on the top of the rock, regardless of how you turn it .

What about dynamic plants? Maybe some can have fruits/flowers that always face down, no matter how the plant itself is turned

EDIT: Some typos. For some reason my keyboard is set to Spanish

Nope - I'm against that, because one of my favorite tricks for adding lupins (by "planting" the wisteria flowers upside down) wouldn't work any more.
And it's not only the wisteria flowers, but many plants that look quite good or make good hedges (far better looking hedges than the ingame ones which look like plastic).

Edit: But dynamic logs with moss or snow I would like very much!

I didn't mean all plants need to be like this.

I was referring to how we can have a "dynamic" variant to each one (or certain plants), much like how we have a "dynamic mossy rock", which is a variant to the tropical rocks

I know, what you mean ;) - but as long as I can toggle it off, it is ok for me.
You would like the wisteria flowers for instance to hang from its branches in the right angle compared with the ground, so you can turn around the branches. - But that's not necassary what I like to have. There is a picture:

Why would they be dynamic? With the rocks, only one rock set is dynamic. They didn't make all the rocks dynamic. It would be the same with the plants.

As I said: If I can toggle it off or we have an additional dynamic variant, it would be nice, indeed. And no, it's not the "rocks" I'm worried about, but the "moss" (figuratively spoken)

Edit: I hope, you can see, what I mean. If the flower of the wisteria was dynamic (and it belongs to those plants, where this "dynamic" would be handy, because if you turn the branches slightly, the flowers are off gravity ;) ). But as many other builders, I sometimes like to create "custom" plants, and my favorite one is the upside down wisteria flower. I want to keep that. :)

I think I might have to steal this trick quietly and full of gratitude lol i love lupins thank you so much!!



That being said I think dynamic trees + logs would be amazing! How about adding a dynamic recolorable layer to the aquatic faux rocks ( I know this is VERY unlikely as they won't touch such an old pack, but one can dream lol)

You are welcome - I like putting things upside down and look what might come off and what I might use that for. Just try it out: it's really fun! :)

With trees it is the same: Some people like to put them upside down to create custom trees. But dynamic moss on faux rocks: that would be awesome!

I don't understand why people are speaking of a "toggle" like a switch when the dynamic rocks that are already in the game don't have that.
Because they actually simply made two versions of some, not a toggle on each item. You all know this...

This confused me a lot at first (I am/was newer) and I had to look it up for what it actually meant.
But all that said, I do think it's a pretty cool feature and I wouldn't mind it as an OPTION on certain items. I guess most of the "nature" ones.
And yes, I would really prefer to see it as an optional thing in an item's properties, like a toggle, instead of making two versions of them to not clutter the inventory.

I'd also like to see the two dynamic and non-dynamic versions of the same items we have currently be folded into one, as long as they make sure that existing builds aren't changed because of it.

Because there is no other "moss" item in the game that looks like the moss on the dynamic moss rocks. I would like the moss without the rocks :p, then I could stick the moss to other things, not only rocks (I hardly ever use the dynamic moss rocks, because they are not flexicolour (the rocks, not the moss, of cause).

I would like 2 seperate items: the "normal" flower/moss/log/tree, which you can rotate freely, plus the "dynamic" version you can stick on whatever you like and is always perpendicular to your surface. (Or one item with a toggle for "dynamic" behaviour)
