Remove plowed land growth over time.

Post by itworkss »

Plowed land currently extends/grows onto dirt over time.

This doesn't make sense logically.

Thanks.

This. Most of our player base is aware of it so makes sure they "grow grass" or don't leave dirt near plowed fields if they don't want it expanding. Not sure if the bug is that tricky or just that low priority. To note: plowed land also doesn't decay back to "plain dirt" or even the normal biome anymore. Not that I have a huge issue with this, but immersion.

going to leave it here as a reminder to jorb that we want our world to have some normalcy. :D

Growing dirt is a bug they forgot to fix, yet. Most likely they switched a sign in the test so it simply grows instead of contracting.

I hope they'll take a stab at the decay system soon (so it'll be applied irrelevant of the map being loaded or not) and fix this while at it, preferably in a way that a plowed tile hit by decay will revert to one of the natural biome it touches but stays plowed in case it's surrounded by pavement or other plowed tiles.

I'm tired of explaining this bug to new players, it's embarrassing.
