I guess it's not 16.1 specific but why is there no Study option when right clicking on a Tansy?

Rather than just giving them the fuckest of fuck yous, it may be more helpful to elaborate on your frustration in the relevant C&I thread: viewtopic.php?f=48&t=79854

I'm sure the dev intention here wasn't 'let's fuck over crafters' but they genuinely considered it a good idea and didn't realize the flaws, which will need to be elaborated on by the players experiencing the problem so they can find the best solution.

I abandoned 16.1 yesterday after a mere 14 days. The speed up was too much for me - I felt like I was on a treadmill, always out of curios, but always needing to service crops that ripened too expletive fast. Fortunately 16 is still running, so I don't need to abandon Haven to get off that treadmill.

Other people's mileage will doubtless vary - I have limited playing time, and limited it still farther by doing basic maintenance on my base on 16. Also, I was in a village of rushers, as farmer - a bad combination for a time limited player, particularly one that wants to do more than just cycle crops *ad nauseam*.

As a time limited hermit I could have coped by resolving not to harvest anything more frequently than I would have done on 16 - though I'd perhaps have chosen to skip livestock entirely to avoid an accelerated birth and maturation speed.

Overall, this speedup is not a win for players like me. And the rushers will simply reach mine level 9, get bored, and quit, in 2/3 of the time it would have taken them on world 16.

Please don't make world 17 an accelerated treadmill. And please announce the speed of new worlds in future; finding out how fast things went in 16.1 gave me no joy of discovery, and resulted in me letting down my friends when I found I couldn't keep up with the new basic pace of play. If I'd known about the speed increase in advance, I'd probably have had the sense not to join a village there.

what kind of bullshittery is this? for real, its like 5th demo's in a row with such odd results.

We need a third world in parallel, 16.2, starting around July ... slowed down by about 1.25 - 1.5... to really get a taste of it.
