Speed some things up?

Post by Lmaoboat »

;I know lots of things in this game take a while for realism reasons, but there's a point where realism just becomes tedious. Most of the time it takes to do things isn't even consistent, crops take months to grow, steel is much quicker to make in real life, and it takes a good hundred or two years to get pine trees big enough to produce that much wood. But I realize that the higher tier items need are hard to get for a reason, so I think there should be other ways to control the value of items than time-sinks.

Crops don't take months to grow. I have a ton of it and 3 bee hives and it grows in a day
One day I hope to start a village. It shall be called 'Fruit Town'

I wouldn't really call them timesinks, sure you have to wait a while but nothing is really stopping you from doing other things while they are growing/smelting etc.

He is talking about real life...In real life, crops take months to grow, whereas steel is made relatively quicker.
