So, now that the 1-tile field bug has been fixed...what does this mod DO?

I'd happily take it's FPS boost (my poor, poor laptop...), but don't really want to mess with anything else. What portions of this would I need to use to have fields cause less of an FPS drop?

this mod decreases the visual size of fields to a 1x1 size. This used to be necessary primarily because of shader issues apparently, but now it's pointless unless you still have 100's of fields lying around (or a really old laptop).
The mod itself won't mess with anything, since you can't lay fields that close together anymore.

Ok, so by drawing only one square of the field (I assume it's the one you stand in to plant the field) it makes it so that fields only require 1/16th the rendering power to be drawn?

Makes sense. If I start to have really bad problems when I get my cotton production up and running, then I'll give this a try.
