Farming Crops Destruction

[The_Hemingway]

Can we PLEASE get a function to destroy crops before they are harvestable.

Once planted, cannot dig them up, cannot destroy them, cannot even plow them under. How ridiculous is it? Plant a row of any crop, now pave over that area, the crops will continue to grow in the paving.

Not possible for your own good.

[animary]

Explain.

Imagine you accidentally miss-click and destroy your one and only crop of certain type, that took weeks to find from a WWW.

It's multiple miss-clicks assuming it uses Destroy, or the flower menu. You could also apply this argument to anything of high value, just give it a long timer rather than disallowing it at all. If raiding is the issue then make it so only the owner can do it (similar to how animals are handled while on claims)

There was a bug in the game for like 5+ years that let you destroy crops and it was basically never done to grief. I'm sure there were /some/ instances, but I've personally never witnessed it in spite of usually being involved in that kindof thing.

People here seem to have a strong propensity to overestimate what people will do to grief. "Every cave will be blocked", "every well spring will be destroyed", "every localized resource will be claimed", etc

It's insane that the developers even consider griefing in half the cases which they're attempting to mitigate it. What I mean is like, half the time they're like 'griefing is a part of the game, if you don't like it then do something about it' and then the other half of the time they're desperately trying to stop people from bashing their own palisade or tearing up their own crops because of griefing potential

It's like dropping shit in the water by accident, absolutely just a learning scenario. if you accidentally make your rare q25 wheat commit sudoku that's entirely your fault, we shouldn't be baby proofing the game because people are retarded and suck at the game

"It's like dropping shit in the water by accident..."

Or those half dozen q200 bee larvae you just put in a compost bin (not that I've ever done that, of course, lol).
