Smoke Reducer

Switch: F1 → 0 - Sub-mods → Smoke Reducer (on by default).

Every smoke puff from a fire, oven or kiln is a separate physics object that lives about 13 seconds, and the game keeps up to 100 of them around you, often trapped under roofs. At a base with many fires that costs noticeable FPS.

Features

• Fires spawn smoke puffs less often (default: half as often).
• Fewer puffs alive at once (default 50 instead of 100); the oldest fade out first, as the game itself does.
• Less steam and smoke from the food in ovens and cooking stations (default: half). The oven's mouth no longer fills the room with steam.
• Fires burn exactly as before; smoke columns are just a bit thinner.
• Building smoke: placing or repairing a building piece throws a quarter of the usual dust cloud (slider, 25% by default), so you can see what you build. Covers everyone's building.
• The Ashlands' spreading fire (burning ground and burning buildings): fewer flame puffs and sparks, fainter smoke clouds rising from it, and fewer of the puffs it throws each time it burns something (default: half each). Visual only: the fire still burns, spreads and hurts as before (its smoke clouds still rise, since fires choke on their own smoke; you just see less of them), so keep some flames to see where it is.

Notes

• Client-side; smoke is not shared between players.
