Farming scythe traveler sacks and buckets

They all exclude each other. Inventory system is shit. They are no meaningful choices they are just tedium. The only way to farm efficiently is to use two accounts one that scythes and one that picks. Good job on getting rid of alts. Make it better.

what i've been doing is running over the field with the scythe and dropping everything on the ground, running back over it with tsacks or buckets.

I agree that it is kind of shit. Some kind of seed pouches (maybe worn on a belt or just carried in the inventory) would be great.

No seed pouches would only work for seed crops. Would still not be able to do beets onions carrots peas pumpkins etc. I'd take a one handed scythe.

Crashes don't delete items on the ground anymore.

Doesn't change the fact that the current farming system is pretty annoying though. Definitely need something to combine these items.

Right now you have speed vs inventory convenience. How exactly do you propose making this better? It takes inventory space no matter how you look at it.

"I can't use dual Tsacks while having the speed of a scythe" is not asking for meaningful choices either. It's just asking for faster hand pick speed and the complete removal of scythes.

I am not sure having either this or that kind of tedium qualifies as a meaningful choice.

Well typical farmers of the period didnt wear backpacks but instead haversacks which they stored their seeds in. Its simple enough to add a seed bag storage system. But honestly with stacking seeds a good backpack does most of this. As for buckets they are generally only used for delicate items that flexible bags might allow to be crushed.

I think that a lot of people are angry for having to do the job their bots used to do :D
Farming is a bless now if compared to Legacy, for those that actually farmed that is.

I agree that a one handed scythe would be welcome though - I mean, it's not like we're asking much, one handed scythes do exist :P
