Farming Bug

Post by g1real »

With the quality increasing farms I set up I wanted it to be fast.

Now I wonder if grapes growing within 2 minutes is a bug or not with this many bee hives:

Also, am I supposed to surpass with crop quality by way above my farming skill?

In the words of Bob Ross, it was a happy accident?

I wouldn't be surprised with that number of hives though. On the old map, my 6x18 fields would be done in about half an hour with around 12 hives.

And suddenly it's slowed down terribly...

Divine intervention?

My guess is that it was fixed.

Unannounced.

I'd expect a post from loftar :<

And it's back again.

This time plants regrow within 5 seconds.

WHAT?
Man, that's a weird one.
I for one would think that plants should only be affected by one hive at a time. They're either getting pollinated or not, after all.
Surprise.

But what if thousands of bees cover the plant and leave it fully grown.

That said, it's calmed down a bit now.

It takes 2 minutes for them to regrow again.

Sounds like a bug in the plant growing code. When he made everything affected by hives he probably blew away the change that made them only affected once.

This is a bug, indeed. The odd thing is that it seems that it's been there all along, and I'm sure I've tested it many times over. Oh well, it will be fixed the next time the server is restarted, so don't worry. :)
