Hide It!

Compatible with Cities Skylines 1.17.0-f3 (Hotels & Retreats)

This mod allows to hide unwanted things in the game.

NEW IN 1.28

• Recompiled for Cities Skylines 1.17.0-f3 (Hotels & Retreats).

NEW IN 1.27

• Recompiled for Cities Skylines 1.16.1-f2 (Hubs & Transport).

Both buttons, objects, props, sprites, color of ground and water and several effects can be hidden.

It adds to and extends several mods being aroung for a long time such as No Purple Pullution, Remove Decoration Sprites ("Grass" and "Rocks"), Remove Dirt (Trees and Props) and others (see list in discussion), but my intention was to create a unified mod for hiding these and other elements from the game that simply bugs or annoys the player. I found myself using more than ten mods just to hide these things. Now I only need one mod!

Let me know if you want other things added to this mod in terms of hiding unwanted things from the game.

A lot of credit goes to the modders of earlier mods with similar functionality. I have taken alot of inspiration from them but most of the time rewritten and optimized the codebase.

Thank you to the amazing modding community and especially SamsamTS, TPB, boformer and BloodyPenguin for releasing the source code of their great mods so we can all be inspired.

Compatibility

This mod does use patching technique with the Harmony library provided by the Harmony dependency mod but does not alter game save files in any way and can be disabled or unsubscribed safely at any time.

If you have any of the following mods enabled, then manipulating props and ruining will by default be disabled because of overlapping functionality:

BOB, the Tree and Prop Replacer Prop It Up! Road Sign Replacer Traffic Light Replacer Railway Replacer Metro Replacer Catenary Replacer

Likewise if you have any of the following mods enabled, then manipulating sprite decorations will be disabled because of overlapping functionality:

Theme Mixer 2

All of the above mods are therefore fully compatible with Hide It! It is further possible to enforce hiding but be aware that this can affect functionality in above mentioned mods.

Known issues

• None.
