Get rid of all these weeds
Weeds here, weeds there, weeds everywhere. I once logged in to find 4 different weeds grown in the spots that I plowed, to get rid of weeds! Can you please lower the amount of weeds that grow?

It would be nice if fields plowed with a metal plow didn't decay.Agarrett wrote:Weeds here, weeds there, weeds everywhere. I once logged in to find 4 different weeds grown in the spots that I plowed, to get rid of weeds! Can you please lower the amount of weeds that grow?

Re: Get rid of all these weeds
Or you could add some sort of mulch to fields. As soon as I saw that wheat dropped straw I immediately assumed it was for spreading on fields. It seems like that would be the obvious choice. I'd suggest the mulch be subject to decay, but take a few hits and be repairable. If that was too difficult to code it could just be permanent.
@agarrett: if you're just doing it to remove weeds, why don't you pave the area? weeds don't grow there.

Weeds, while annoying, are somewhat realistic and prevent plows from becoming useless once you're done plowing for the first time.
And, for what it's worth, you gain LP every time you plow.

Re: Get rid of all these weeds
I believe he's referring to the fern looking things rather than the decay of plowed tiles. I think weeds are a good thing. But as I said before, the option to mulch would make sense and wouldn't change the game balance at all, it would just give people that optionPeter wrote:Weeds, while annoying, are somewhat realistic and prevent plows from becoming useless once you're done plowing for the first time.

What I do is plow the weed tile and plant grass, therefore keeping the weed from growing back and giving you a chance of attracting farm animals.Agarrett wrote:Weeds here, weeds there, weeds everywhere.

Re: Get rid of all these weeds
Well, there are only a few spots around that are plowed, and I have full industry so I can't get the seeds. Plus my claim is rather large, and would take some time to plant grass all around.

If you want your plot to be grassified, it can be arranged. Its not like I do anything else with all the extra seeds =P
