⭐ Terrain Modifications:

• Smooth Terrain
• Flatten Terrain
• Lower Terrain
• Raise Terrain
• Cultivate Smooth
• Cultivate Flat
• Paved Road Smooth
• Paved Road Flat
• Mud Path
• Terrain Ramp

⭐ Terrain Ramp:

• Select Terrain Ramp from the hoe menu, then click a start point, click an end point, and move the cursor sideways to choose the width. Click a third time to build.
• The ground between the two points is cut or filled into a straight slope, and the edges are blended back into the surrounding terrain.
• The preview turns red when the ramp is too steep, too big, or beyond the terrain height limit.
• Scroll the mouse wheel while the ramp is selected to choose the paint for the ramp surface (None, Dirt, Cultivated, Paved or Grass). The choice is also in the config as Ramp Paint and can be changed live.
• Press the Step Back key (default Z) to undo a point while placing.
• Max slope, width limits, shoulder width and size limit are in the config under Ramp Settings.

⭐ Paint Modifications:

• Paint Dirt
• Paint Pave
• Paint Grass
• Paint Cultivate
• Clutter brushes: the Paint category also has a brush for each kind of clutter the game scatters over the ground. Click to paint that clutter inside the brush circle.
• Clear Clutter: erases painted clutter inside the brush circle.
• Clear Forestry: removes trees, stumps, shrubs, rocks and pickables inside the brush circle, like the remove_forestry console command. Nothing is dropped, and wards are respected. Uses the Hoe Radius controls below. Off by default; turn it on in the config (General Settings, Enable Clear Forestry Tool).
• Clutter brushes use the Hoe Radius controls below. The Brush Density setting (config, Clutter Brush Density) sets how thickly they paint.

⭐ Hoe Radius:

• Allows you to modify the size of land affected by the dirty hoe by holding down an optional modifier key (default Left Alt) and scrolling with the mouse, or pressing one of two customizable hotkeys (default disabled).

⭐ Terrain Reset:

• To reset terrain using the dirty hoe hold down the modifier key (default Left Ctrl and Left Click).
• resetterrain [radius] is also available in the console. i.e. resetterrain 10 would reset terrain in a 10m radius.

⭐ Undo Terrain Changes:

• While holding the dirty hoe, press the Undo Hotkey (default Left Alt + X) to undo the last terrain change. Each press goes back one more change, newest first.
• Works for the terrain tools, paint tools, the ramp, the Reset Terrain piece, the Reset Hotkey and the resetterrain console command, so an accidental reset can be put back.
• Undo Hotkey (config, Misc Settings): the key or key combination to undo. Set to None to turn undo off.
• Undo Steps (config, Misc Settings): how many changes are remembered, from 1 to 20 (default 5).
• If a change is too far away to be loaded, move closer and try again.
• The Undo Hotkey does nothing while placing a ramp; use the Step Back key (default Z) to undo a ramp point instead.
• Stamina, durability and resources are not given back, and stones dropped by lowering stay on the ground.
• In multiplayer, undoing puts the spot back to how it was before your change, so any edit someone else made there afterwards is lost.
• The undo history is cleared when you leave the world. Clutter brush painting can't be undone.

⭐ Other Settings:

• Enable or disable durabilty.
• Enable or disable stamina.
• Enable or disable resources.
• Enable or disable workbench.
• Show or hide hotkeys in tool descriptions. Each tool's description in the build menu lists the hotkeys that work with it, as set in your config (on by default; General Settings, Show Hotkeys In Tool Descriptions).

⭐ Console Commands:

• resetterrain - Resets terrain to default state.
• remove_pieces - removes all structures around the player in a configured radius.
• remove_forestry - removes trees, shrubs, rocks etc in a configured radius.
