Lawn Mower

[El_Jefe]

I am so tired of punching grass all the time around my base, so I say we should have a lawn mower we can make. Possibly even one you could ride around.

+1 absolutely

 

I am not sure if this should be drivable, but I would also like to see any tool that would make removing grass easier and faster.

This has come up many times and is something that will likely be addressed eventually in vanilla. Mods already exist for this, though.

A scythe would be better imho or a harvesting robot.^^

I took this from Valmod, I think, and made a few changes. The difference is that it uses an existing icon (with a tint), so you don't need a custom one. And it also lasts a really long time.

 

Very handy for cutting grass. Just hold down the button. It works very fast. Use an open ID for XXXX.

Thanks to Valmar, if I remember correctly. I borrow so many things from different mods I have a hard time keeping track of where I get them.
