Realistic Road Ageing
by Gamearoo
Realistic Road Ageing lets roads in a Forge 1.12.2 world wear down over time, with roads that Fureniku's Roads places gaining wear as real-world time passes.
What it does
Road blocks from Fureniku's Roads age automatically. The mod counts real-world time and applies wear at a configurable interval, which defaults to 60 minutes, so a city's streets slowly change as the world is played. Aging only happens in chunks near players, which keeps the work small on busy or large servers.
Admins and players can control the process from the game. The roadage command ages roads instantly, and a reload command reapplies the configuration without restarting the server. Settings are edited through the Forge Mod Options screen, and both automatic aging and manual triggers through code or commands are supported. The mod suits survival servers, city builders and roleplay worlds where roads should not stay new forever. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Both the server and every player need it, and Fureniku's Roads must be installed as well.
