Features

LegacyFlavour currently includes the following features:

1. Unit Display for Road Tools: This feature introduces a ‘Unit’ display for road tools, making it easier to plan and build your roads with precision. (Note: This feature requires the unit type to be set to Imperial in the game options.)
2. Transparent Zone Grid Cells: We’ve made zone grid cells transparent for a cleaner, more visually appealing city layout, allowing for a more immersive city planning experience.
3. Re-worked colour Zone colour scheme: Changes the colour scheme of zones to better match Cities Skylines 1. (UI icons will be updated too in the near future).
4. Colour-Blindness Modes: This is WIP and currently in testing. Cycle zone colours to match a scheme for specific types of colour blindness.
5. Toggle Shortcuts:

• ALT+Z to toggle the zone colours mod.
• SHIFT+Z to cycle through colour blindness modes.
• ALT+S to toggle Sticky Infomode Whiteness.
• SHIFT+W to toggle Sticky Infomode Whiteness value override.
• ALT+R to reload the config file
• ALT+U to toggle Units display

1. Configure Zone colours via JSON: Config file in mod directory to allow custom values.
2. Dynamic Zone Borders: If it snows zone borders will switch colour to be more visible on snow. UPDATE this now calculates snow coverage so is more accurate. It may have a delay as updates occur periodically to prevent performance hits.
3. Dynamic UI Icons: UI icons for zones now adapt to match the configured colours. These are dynamically generated from the games icons based on config settings.
4. Sticky Infomode Whiteness: Shortcuts to override infomode ‘whiteness’ setting to stop it constantly popping up.
5. UI System via HookUI: Integrates with HookUI to offer an advanced UI system, elevating your control and customization options.
