Take Control of Your Fungal Hive

This is a standalone, lightweight configuration utility and Harmony patch designed specifically for Mycohazard - A Biological Mechanitor Mod. By default, the master mod forces fungal nodes to continuously spread rotting soil across a massive, hardcoded 71-tile radius, wiping out all home area decorations. This utility hands control back to the player, providing real-time scaling and complete infrastructure security without modifying any baseline installation files.

✨ Core Features

  • Dynamic Radius Slider: Adds an interactive slider bar directly to the native Mod Options window. Instantly dial the spread threshold down from 71 cells all the way to a compact 1-tile boundary in real-time. Adjustments update instantly without requiring a game reboot!
  • Comprehensive Floor Safety Shields: Adds a quick configuration toggle to make player-constructed base layouts immune to decay. When turned on, the fungal node's radar sweep will cleanly slide right past carpets, metal tiles, wood planks, concrete, sterile blocks, and bridges.
  • Smoothed Rock Integration: Explicitly protects smoothed mountain rooms (including sandstone, granite, slate, etc.). Natural outer map biomes, wild loose dirt, soft sand, and raw cavern stone layers will still rot down completely normally to progress your rothive.
  • Extended player shields to universally protect custom tilled soil and modded agricultural farmlands from decay.
