Paleobotany plants being placeable decorations

[gabeluna27]

After seeing the six environment type plant decorations being able to be placeable in all maps, I’m suggesting to see something similar to the paleobotany plants, especially the cycads and ginkgo trees, for more park creativity.

If you turn the brush size down to the lowest radius and lightly tap the button, you can usually place just one Ginkgo tree. Unfortunately, this usually doesn't work with cycads.

Plus, you can’t always put them really close together against buildings or paths. The placeable plants in-game are easier for that, partly because of their small hit boxes and partly because they can be placed where bush tool plants wouldn’t be.

I know this is an old thread, but after the last update (which was great) I realised this hasn’t been implemented yet. Having a selection of paleobotany plants under the foliage section of the decorations tab would be amazing, especially if it goes towards herbivore needs as well. Just two or three different sizes from each type, tempskya, leafy climbers, calamites etc. It would really help to decorate our parks, thanks and keep up the good work devs.

It would really be nice having a decorative version of each of the plant types in the game.

Take three or four of the most distinctive individual plants from each type of feeder foliage and make them decorations. Food need satisfying not necessary but would be a good bonus.

Now that you brought it up, I started playing with the idea of them not as "decoration" items, but as "environmental" objects. Because placeable rocks do contribute to a dinosaur's "Rock need" in their territory and is not limited to the rock terrain type.
