Description
Some years ago I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to backpack through middle and southern Honshū (Japan). There I got to appreciate the peace and quite in different gardens I visited. With this came times the weather wanted to mess a little with my plans but even then I enjoyed being there just for these little traditional architectural details one could find everywhere. The rain chains or "kusari-doi" (jap. 鎖樋 / レインチェーン) put me to rest more then one time. And I missed them dearly when Snowy Escape dropped in 2020.
So I added some water effects when it's raining ingame. And I detachted it from wall-slotting to roof-slotting.
There are 3 different heights available* because of different slopes roofs can have. For further heights adjustments I dearly recommend using the "bb.moveobjects on" cheat.
*If some of you like to have even lower height options, please let me know.
I made these objects to place in an offset of 0.5 in x and y direction to its center. This makes it easier to place a chain as far at an edge as possible witout fiddling too much with the alt key. EA also made sure that everything placed one tile nearer to the trim, the object will default to some lower ceiling heigt which makes it impossible to slot it directly on the roof at that specific place. So this is my version of a work around. (To see what it looks like if you ever try to place something directly at the edge, I uploaded an example pic)
You'll find them in the "Roof Sculptures" category.
