Tree Fire Control

Description
Tree Fire Control Version 1.7.0-f5 Build 01
--------------------
Allows more control over the rate that tree fires burn.

This mod allows changing the following via the options menu
-The rate at which trees will catch fire both from normal fires and from disaster related fires.
-Disable trees catching on fire under either situation.
-The ability if things get out of control for you to kill off all active tree fires.

The percentage for the rate setting is relative to the original game code\burn rates.
100% == No changes (normal burn speed used).
0% == Disable trees from fires of said type from ever burning, including manually.

Inbetween is the % chance a tree will burn when the game normally asks it too.
So setting 80% would mean the mod will block on average 20% of games calls to burn trees, a setting of say 50% will only allow buring on half the requests, etc..etc.

Personally I recommend about 35-45% in my games.

*Note* - If you are manually trying to trigger a forest fire I always allow the first tree to burn in a disaster,
so long as you have don't have things 'disabled', ie if you have at least 5% set it will for sure burn the first tree, but then basically not spread.

Disable normal building fires - The setting sets the global flag to disable normal building fires (existing ones still burn but no new ones will happen), this has no effect on disaster triggered building fires.

Enable logging - is more for me the developer, just logs extra stuff to your log, you don't need to enable it unless troubleshooting... or you want to enable seeing tree burn stats on your options screen.

*You may change your options In-Game at anytime, they are effective immediately.

*Obviously requires the Disasters DLC to be of much use to you*


*Acknowledgements*
----------------------------
This mod makes use of Sebastian Schöner's (aka cope ) CitiesSkylinesDetour project, and would not be possible without it. You can find his great project here:
https://github.com/sschoener/cities-skylines-detour
Thanks Sebastian for sharing such for reuse with the modding community.

This project's sourcecode can be found on Github -- Here --[github.com]

**Compatibility**
-----------------------
Other mods that detour\replace TreeManagers's BurnTree() function will cause a problem (ie the mod will load but not actually do anything). I don't know of any that do that..yet.


If you like this mod please remember up vote it.

Does this mod still work? I remember it being a crucial mod for me.

Would love to see this get picked up and updated by someone at some point. I plant trees a lot more densely than the base game would allow and this results in forest fires that are beyond the capacity of the game's fire services to handle. Would rather be able to adjust the spread rate again rather than have to disable fire spreading entirely.

Mod is working for me without issues - prevents tree-fire-spreading but don*t disables tree fires completely or effects distaster-fires... other mods just don't do this correctly -> yes, it may be abandonned, but still works despite the compatibility reports... :steamthumbsup:

I hope this gets picked up.
I want fires to spread, just not so quickly.

Sorry, I would not recommend this mod. I place it on the list of "Avoid these mods".
