How slowly we talking here? Or can you just add a way for us to destroy crops. I wanna return my fields to working conditions.
If it's 100% important you can build a trellis over problematic strands and destroy that, and they will go with it.

It was actually broken. I long believed that you were just being unlucky since everything seemed right with the code, but then I recently checked whether anyone had discovered fulgurite, and seeing that noone had I debugged it more thoroughly and found the bug. The thing is that I had tested the code previously with a much higher spawn-rate, but apparently the bug was non-deterministic (probably depended on the order of compilation).
Glad that I could help demonstrate the existence of a problem, hopefully will help for future rare curio additions!

Man, trellis is one of the most awful things in the game to make. It's way to stamina draining. I just wanted to see whether it'd be possible to wait out the crops in my lifetime.

Trellises are pure cancer in haven-form. They are terrible in every single way and have no reason to exist asides from causing suffering.

I guess the start of the world, since there are no characters older than that.

I would also add that this seems to fix bugged animals for me, as a few dead lambs i had for months now had an option to collect bones.
