Crop Diseases V1.0.5 fs25-mods

Description:

Crop Diseases adds a comprehensive system of diseases and pests to your crops in the game. Fields can now become infested depending on crop health, soil management, moisture levels, weeds, stubble, and growth stage. Threats are categorized into low, medium, and high levels. If neglected, diseases and pests will spread more rapidly, reducing potential yields. The mod features a dedicated tab on the map, a threat layer on the minimap, HUD information on each field, saving infected zones, and multiplayer support. **What’s added:** - Disease and pest system for fields. - Six diseases: powdery mildew, rust, septoria, root rot, snow mold, late blight. - Three pests: aphids, caterpillars, wireworms. - New liquids: fungicide and insecticide. - Threat map in the map menu: overview, diseases, pests, and infestation levels. - Threat layer on the minimap. - Realistic spread of infection spots across fields. - Severe infections can cause partial crop death. - Multiplayer support (BETA). **Diseases and affected crops:** - Powdery mildew: grapes, sunflowers, soybeans, cotton, olives, rapeseed, peas, spinach, rice, and other crops. - Rust: wheat, barley, rye, oats, corn, sorghum, sunflower, rapeseed. - Septoria: wheat, barley, oats, rye. - Root rot: potatoes, sugar beets, soybeans, beets, carrots, parsnips. - Snow mold: wheat, barley, rye, grass, oats. - Late blight: potatoes. **Pests:** - Aphids: grains, corn, sunflowers, soybeans, potatoes, vegetables, and other crops. - Caterpillars: corn, soybeans, sunflowers, cotton, peas, rapeseed, green crops. - Wireworm: potatoes, beets, carrots, parsnips, corn. **How to fight:** - Fungicide is effective against most leaf diseases: rust, septoria, powdery mildew, snow mold, late blight. - Insecticide targets pests. - Root rot is best eliminated through soil cultivation: cultivation or plowing (or fungicide). - Wireworms can also be treated with cultivation, plowing, or insecticide. - Some threats can be mitigated through field maintenance: weeding, mulching, rolling, and tillage. **Management:** - The threat layer on the minimap can be toggled using Left Alt + \ keys. **Update V1.0.5.0:** - Fixed issues: insecticide and fungicide no longer act as herbicides. - Introduced a new system where fungicide and insecticide provide ongoing protection to fields (not yet visible on the map, but indicated in the HUD). Protected cells are immune to infection during the crop’s growing season (testing phase, more feedback needed for different game modes). - Naimit now regularly checks if insecticide or fungicide application is needed. - Added information about field cell security status. - Various minor edits.
