Adds a ride on lawn tractor that can cut and collect grass, crops and much more.

Do you hate manually punching all the grass around your base?
Then this Ride on Lawn Tractor is the perfect vehicle for you!

Cut all the grass around your base with ease! What started as a small Proof of concept
has grown into a feature rich Mod, that should satisfy a few of your farming sim desires.
We’ve added a few treats here and there to make it a better overall experience.

Needed on client and server side. And both need EAC (Easy Anti-Cheat) to be turned off!
There is no server-side only version of this mod as it contains custom code. This mod needs to
be installed on both client and server for multiplayer (and no, server side only is not possible).

Schematics for chassis and accessories are unlocked at Vehicle Crafting Skill Level 15.
In its base configuration, it can only remove grass and bushes, but doesn’t collect any items!
Once you get your first Lawn Tractor item, a journal entry will be added (read it for more info).

Toggling Lawn Tractor Features

In order to enable the mowing/harvesting, you have to press F. The function will toggle
alternating with the light, so to only toggle mowing/harvesting, press F twice.
There will be a green indicator light when the mower/harvester is active.

Grass Collector Mod

This is the simplest modifier that you should be able to get quite early. It will only collect items
from grass and bushes, and the yield will be significantly lower than when harvesting by hand/tool.
You can get a fully functional grass collector from harvesting pristine lawn mowers.
Otherwise you can find or buy the schematics, or unlock Living Off the Land Level 1.

Plant Collector Mod

With this modifier you will also harvest and collect items from various other small plants, like
cotton, coffee or mushrooms. Yield is also significantly lower than when harvested by hand/tool.
You can get a fully functional plant collector mod from harvesting pristine lawn mowers.
Otherwise you can find or buy the schematics, or unlock Living Off the Land Level 2.

Crop Harvester Mod

Upgrade for the plant collector mod, that gives much better yield, but still a bit less when harvested
by hand or via tools. It should be able to collect every growing crop and also gives seeds back.
You can get a fully functional crop harvester mod from harvesting pristine lawn mowers.
Otherwise you can find or buy the schematics, or unlock Living Off the Land Level 3.

Crop Protector Mod

Basic mod that protects all player plants, so you don’t have to worry about accidentally mowing down your
own plants when tidying up the surroundings. Additionally it reduces damage the vehicle receives by 60%.
You can get a fully functional crop protector mod from harvesting pristine lawn mowers.
Otherwise you can find or buy the schematics, or unlock Advanced Engineering Level 2.

Crop Reseeder Mod

Upgrade for the crop protector, that will automatically reseed player plants when harvesting. Seeds must
be filled into the vehicle inventory, as you will often not get enough seeds back from harvesting only.
Harvesting speed and reseeding is limited to make it a bit more realistic and to make it not too OP.
You can get a fully functional crop reseeder mod from harvesting pristine lawn mowers.
Otherwise you can find or buy the schematics, or unlock Advanced Engineering Level 4.

Harvestable Prefabs

There are 3 different damage level variations of the Lawn Tractor, which all come in 7 different colors,
so 21 new randomly placed vehicles in the world. They can all be harvested for parts and give the same
resources as regular cars, plus a few additional items. Pristine Lawn Tractors have a good chance to drop
either a fully functional modifier part or one of the other rare resources you need to build the recipes.
A damaged Lawn Tractor sill has a small chance to give you a rare resource for the recipes, while a
wrecked vehicle will only give the usual scrap that cars would give you.

Special Thanks to Zilox, who did the very first vehicle rigging for me!
