decoration removing consumable or tool

Simply put, we need a bomb (think defoliant) or robot type that only does decoration removal. It should be massively cheap and easy to use on large areas, yet not actually remove ALL decoration from ALL of the game; afterall how can I feel satisfied if there isn't some greenery to kill or sand to sweep before I make my entire planet concrete??

Alternatively, a 100x100 building that can be placed and removed quickly for the same purpose. It doesn't need to be pretty.

Maybe give this a try and see if it’s to your liking?

There are others, too, that do this with just concrete.

Decoratio also offers the lawnmower planner, to deconstruct them as you would. I believe it can filter to specific decorations, but can't check right now.

This is super-super-super tedious to clean large areas with manually to avoid having bushes in the middle of my factory.

It's "Dectorio" and it is awesome for many reasons; going to try if the landmower is one of them.

Oh, no. I'm going to be getting that wrong forever, but you are quite right of course. I dislike when I get the wrong spelling wedged in my head like this. -_-

I concur --- some mods NEED a renaming so bad, I might repost the entire thing with the saner name (if copyright allows) or have a mod just to require the too-hard-to-remember-named mod, so I can at least find the pointer to the mod I want (if copyright doesn't allow copy-pasting it as is).

Heh. Just post a mod with the name you like, and a dependency. Don't make life worse for everyone by forking if you don't have to. :)

There was this mod from a while ago that hasn't been updated if anyone wants to give it a go.
