Wanted to also add, thank you to the author for making a functional lawn mower, sincerely the effort is appreciated, respect my dude, it works fine with over 300+ mods on 41.

After testing, this mod is overpowered. Once you're on the mower and it is turned on, you're pseudo immortal, zombies will just bounce (stagger) off of you. While controlling the mower going forward is wonky, simply backing up everywhere has it drive with high-accuracy. Once you run a zombie over, they get grinded up to remove the corpse (which is cool, just no the immortality aspect).

Overall, if this is on your mod list, no one can be sure you didn't just John Deer tractor your playthrough.

the map is currently down as i lost my domain. i will correct it soon.

Sir! The map is broken sir! This mower is incredibly difficult to find and after a LOT of hours and active searching I have yet to find one at all, just the trailer to carry one. You say to check the map, but there IS NO MAP SIR! Please address this urgent issue! I beg you!

Loko_sharkwolf 22 Apr @ 7:53am

Bloodysuff 18 Apr @ 3:14pm 
Where does it respawn ?
Panda___666___ 16 Apr @ 1:52pm 
can't spawn in MP via Console
Skizot  [author] 14 Apr @ 7:47am 
there must have been a change, i'll have to look into it.

Some time ago, I reported that the mower wasn't working properly because it only cut grass for the player using it at that moment, and when you left the chunk and came back, the grass would reappear. I did some further testing and finally figured out that the report was incorrect, the mower works perfectly with vanilla grass. The issue is with the grass from the 10 Years Later mod, which it doesn’t remove. Is there a solution to this problem?

Where do they spawn? the map that was posted in a previous comment does not work. we've been looking all over for a mower but all we can find is trailers.
RNGdrink 6 Apr @ 1:42pm 
Where do they spawn in
z0ntir 5 Apr @ 12:01pm

@Skizot
Aye, I find it too pointless to do B42 untill release, it's just will be as do double-triple job. But well done indeed.
[✚] 🌧RAIN🌧 5 Mar @ 3:05am 
Please I beg of you, update this for B42.
DaLoneGuy 1 Mar @ 11:44pm 
I really want to use this mod to get cut grass for animal feed in B42
memetheletrine 27 Feb @ 3:18pm 
any way we could get the map updated? its not showing it in steam, and when i click the link in the comment that Selly posted it goes no where.
dehwoodman 26 Feb @ 11:53am 
I love this mod and I hope its updated for B42. Its so needed especially for the farmlands with big open fields and dirt roads.
sanderps.17 1 Feb @ 8:32am 
Please update to version b42 this mod is GOOD BEAUTIFUL AND EXCELLENT, please :c
ryandogsling 19 Jan @ 1:51am 
Just commenting to say I love this mod and can't wait to see it in B42. Thank you for creating my favorite mod!
achuma.puma 14 Jan @ 9:11pm 
@Skizot Was checking up on this, but that's understandable. Can't wait for a B42 Hank Hill run in irvington lol
Skizot  [author] 31 Dec, 2024 @ 12:25pm 
I do plan to update them to B42. I am waiting for it to be closer to release though. don't wanna spend a ton of time on it and they make a major change that breaks it again. ;)
copyrighted_toast 24 Dec, 2024 @ 2:26pm 
im trying so hard to find these things cant find anything. im using the map and still nothing maybe fix the map make the dots labeled and smaller. Like whats the red square? whats the blue circle? the star too? just confusing
Silver Star 24 Dec, 2024 @ 12:08am 
We need this in B42, this is crucial for maintaining lawns
JJ 21 Dec, 2024 @ 6:03pm 
how does this work in b42?
Snek 16 Dec, 2024 @ 2:38pm 
Trailer works fine you just have to do it a weird way, when you get the trailer and mower where you want disconnect it from the towing vehicle drive it away from the trailer then take the mower off the trailer.
NekoJess 15 Dec, 2024 @ 9:29am 
Also, I would highly recommend that no-one use the trailer! It was never fully realized and will cause weird issues that I don't even think a restart will fix. I've not messed with it in a while, but I don't believe Skizot ever got around to fixing it.

I could be wrong tho.
NekoJess 15 Dec, 2024 @ 9:27am 
@Skizot
Right.... I forgot to mention when I noticed it. As Selly has stated, the map image in the description is broken.
Selly 9 Dec, 2024 @ 6:30am 
It's not that they're rare, so much - they have set spawn locations. There's a broken image in the mod's description that displays a map of these spawns if you open it in a new tab: https://www.skizot.net/images/SkizotSpawnzonesV1.png

They *can* be tough to spot with how big the icons are, but I've reliably found the mower itself at the big farm in Riverside - and the hunter's cottage west of that.
Glaceon (Evak) 30 Nov, 2024 @ 3:16am 
I'll be the one to say, it's way too rare. I recommend there should be at least a rarity column for this mower in the vehicles tab in sandbox settings. I maxed vehicles spawn rate to high, went to dev mode to go find them faster, and still cant find a mower in the below mentioned comments, like Kentucky either hasn't heard of mowing or they somehow evacuated with all of their lawn mowers. I found 7 garbage trucks from the other mod, and 4 riding mower trailers before I could find any of these mowers, still couldn't find one. Is this a farm spawn exclusive? Why wouldn't people of residential Kentucky mow their own lawns?
Skizot  [author] 27 Nov, 2024 @ 9:54am 
there is a map...
Dosboy 23 Nov, 2024 @ 6:55pm 
On day 256, been through Rosewood, Muldraugh, Westside and maybe 1/6 of Louisville along with some other add on cities. Also checked out the entire parking lot of the add on map for the mall. Found the trailer but no riding lawnmower. Starting to wonder if this is a myth?
Selly 22 Nov, 2024 @ 3:09am 
Spent a good couple of hours checking spawn points before I finally found a mower on the Riverside farm; decided not to test my luck finding a hauling trailer and so instead drove said mower all the way down to Constown (so, opposite side of the map basically) in reverse.

Just so I wouldn't have to manage the lawn by hand. Worth it!
NekoJess 18 Nov, 2024 @ 11:06pm 
@AlpacaBooty
That's vanilla behavior. Grass regrows, as do weeds and such.
DennyFrontier 3 Nov, 2024 @ 6:32am 
Hello. I subscribed to the mod and all of its dependencies however it wont show in my mod menu in the game. Does this require a new game? Thanks!
AlpacaBooty 2 Oct, 2024 @ 2:33pm 
To add, I think it has something to do with the chunks deloading, when you get too far away it must be regenerating the grass and the game does not remember to keep it in the same state when it was cut? I don't know anything about modding but maybe that could help in fixing it? :)
AlpacaBooty 2 Oct, 2024 @ 2:01pm 
Grass doesn't stayed mowed in my friends MP world. Very frustrating. Weeds and such all just showed back up.
HugePinball 2 Oct, 2024 @ 6:29am 
Oh, I think it's just a fun dev item, but also there seems to be an issue with the mini mower - it throws constant errors while the mechanics panel is open, and the upper box that would have the vehicle name and main stats is missing.
HugePinball 2 Oct, 2024 @ 6:25am 
I've tried a few of your mods - so far this one, the mower addons and Draad Pack - and I'm really impressed. Everything looks great and is really well thought out :steamthumbsup:

I just wanted to know if you're planning on doing any updates on these or other mods for bug fixes & stuff before the release of build 42. (If not I might look at trying to make some fixes myself.)

I'd just tested this mower mod quickly on a server, and I saw no problem with grass staying mowed that someone reported, but I did have the issues loading the mower on the trailer that you seem aware of (trailer worked fine in SP for me tho).
Sniper Bob 25 Sep, 2024 @ 1:43pm 
Just a FYI, A bunch of your images are dead links.
Nobody 20 Sep, 2024 @ 11:59am 
Where? I've been searching for them for so long. Even last year when I was playing it, I never ran into one.
Skizot  [author] 20 Sep, 2024 @ 6:19am 
@Ryuu they are completely spawnable.
@Carecation they spawn but are rare.
Mr_Tea_Rexx 17 Sep, 2024 @ 1:11pm 
when putting the mower onto the trailer it brakes and unloads it when loading it and if you get into it you become stuck. Audio just cuts out instead if gradually fading away based on distance. Also would it be possible to have the ability to disable and enable trailers and mowers as i only want riding mower and nothing else?
Nobody 15 Sep, 2024 @ 11:52am 
You know what'd be awesome? If you made it where spawning of these were possible.
Carecation 13 Sep, 2024 @ 11:21am 
i cant seem to find this mowner and the farm tools anywhere
Izo 6 Sep, 2024 @ 3:05pm 
Idk if anyone else has this issue but for me the mower is constantly in reverse when not moving forward. Even if I turn it off and get off the mower, the tires are still slowly spinning in reverse. Originally I couldn't even get off the mower once I got on it, I had to back it up to a wall so that it couldn't go back anymore in order to get off.
Skizot  [author] 2 Sep, 2024 @ 11:39pm 
i cannot get a zero point turn to work, i have tried many many times.
as for the trailers they did work but now they are causing issues.
