🎉Fixed Pond Objects🎉

Fixed Pond Objects
There're a few things I don't understand about pond objects.
First of all, why can't you place items like water reeds, lily pads and algae near pond edges? Even with the MOO cheat activated, those items start to float in mid-air.. Why?
Then when looking at for example the lily pads, why are they allowed on ocean water surfaces and water reeds aren't?
And why can you place lily pads, water reeds and swans in swimming pools but the bog log, the one with the turtle, can't?

This all just doesn't make any sense. So that's why I've fixed all of this and more with this mod pack. :)

Placement
- All Water Reeds, Lily Pads, Algae and the Bog Log are now placeable near pond edges without floating in mid-air.
- The Log Bog can now also be placed on water surfaces of fountains and swimming pools.
- The Log Bog and all Water Reeds can now also be placed on ocean water surfaces.
- For all: They can also be placed near and right through other objects, for a more natural look.

Footprints
I've changed the footprint for the following two objects to better fit the mesh itself.
- Smattering of Lily Pads from a 2x2 tiles footprint to a 1 tile footprint.
- Bog Log from a 2x2 tiles footprint to a 1x2 tiles footprint.

Added Search Tags
- ALL: Bakie, Override, Pond
- All Water reeds: Water, Reed, Reeds
- All Water Lily Pads: Water, Lily, Pad, Lilies, Pads

The following objects can now also be found by searching for the VFX option (Animals) which are attached to these objects.

- Jerry's Reeds: Fireflies, VFX
- Reid's Reeds: Midges, Mosquito, Mosquitoes, VFX
- Bog Log: Turtle, VFX
- Large Lily Pad: Frog, Frogs, VFX
- A Smattering of Lily Pads: Frog, Frogs, VFX
- Water Lily Patch: Koi, Fish, VFX

====================================

EXTRA INFO

Short notes
• These 11 objects are either Base Game compatible or require you to have a certain Expansion- or Game pack (See Pack Requirements below).
• All objects are overrides, so they replace the default objects in game.
• All objects can be found by going to Build Mode > Outdoor Water Décor > Pond Objects.
• You can also find them by typing "Pond" into the search bar (Or by using one of the other search tags, see above).
• The object's catalog thumbnails, are the same as they were, but now also have "override" written on them as well as my "BakieGaming" icon in the lower right corner of the thumbnail.

Pack Requirements
Base Game Compatible (BG): Bog Log, Colorful Lily Pads, Jerry's Reeds, Large Lily Pad and A Smattering of Lily Pads.

CurseForge
There will be a CurseForge download coming too, so if you prefer downloading from CurseForge, you need a little more patience. :)

====================================

I want to remind you all that you can use swimming pools as perfect swimmable ponds when made into natural looking ones. Adding Lily pads, rocks, water reeds and the log bog certainly helps!

Should be as I have that mod myself too. Besides that, the objects were already in game, so no debug objects are used. Or is there something else you're concerned about where I don't think of right now? ;)
