Plants: * Potato Stages of growth: 7 Price per unit: 10$ * Corn Stages of growth: 8 Price per unit: 15$ * Wheat Stages of growth: 9 Price per unit: 20$ * Tomato Stages of growth: 10 Price per unit: 25$ * Grapes Planted on a plant fence. Can be harvested many times before dying. Stages of growth: 8 Price per unit: 15$ * Blueberries Planted on a large dirt (bush) tile. Can be harvested many times before dying. Stages of growth: 10 Price per unit: 15$ * Cannabis Grows endlessly, is trimmed to the previous stage to harvest. Illegal, cops will destroy cannabis growing in the open. Stages of growth: 10 Price per unit: seeds cost 250$ cannot be sold to government. Can be smoked. Tools: * Building tools. Hammer, printer, wrench. * Harvest tool. Looks like a pair of sheers. Used to harvested ripe plants, and clear out dead ones. * Shovel. Used to till soil to make it more fertilized and therefore increase crop output. * Seed Bags. Currently using a watering can model for this, but a little bag model would be great. Used to plant seeds you bought or grew on planting soil. * Watering can. Will be added in once I get a seed bad model. For now you just click plant bricks to water them. Bricks: * Planting soil brick. Costs 500$ and is where you plant crops. Can be tilled to increase output. * Sprinkler brick. Costs 2500$ and will water each adjacent brick once per minute. Can be toggled on and off. * Heat lamp, increases tempature of nearby plants. Allowing growth in winter, and faster growth during spring and fall. * Plant fence. Used to plant plants that grow on fences. Currently only used for grapes. * Large soil (bush) brick. Used to plant larger plants, like bushes or trees. Currently used for blueberries. The Government: * The government. Whenever you buy crops, pay to build, or pay for a special brick, the government gets that money. * When you sell crops, you sell them to the government, and it loses a bit of money. * Sometimes, the government will payout a stimulus, based on how many players are in the server, and how much money it has. * If the government has no money, you can not sell crops for a short time. * Also, it does cost a little bit to build regular old bricks. How to get started: * (read the tutorial in game!) * Find an empty lot, NOT A ROAD, and /buylot * Make a baseplate on the empty lot you bought. * Make a few planting soil bricks on that baseplate. * Optional: till the soil bricks with the till soil tool. (the shovel) * Type /buy <crop> <amount> to buy starter seeds. If you wanted to buy 5 potatos you'd type: "/buy potato 5" * Use the respective planting tool (the watering cans) and click each brick ONCE to plant a seed there. * Click the brick to water it. * Each stage will require the plant to be rewatered. You can tell if it needs water if the soil is lighter colored. * Once the plant is ready to be harvested, get out the harvest tool and hit the plant's brick. * One stage too early and you'll get half the harvest. Any earlier and you'll get nothing. Wait too long and the plant dies. * Optional: Use some of the harvest to replant, unless you want to try a different crop. * Type /sell<crop> <amount> For now there's no space between /sell and the crop. If you wanted to sell 5 corn you'd type "/sellcorn 5" * Repeat and expand! A while ago I hosted a farm mod, as I was preparing to add it into Blocktopia. The farming server got quite popular, whereas the complete Blocktopia server did not do as well. So I figured I'd just continue developing a simple farming server. If anyone would like to make a few simple models for me (tools mostly) I'd really appreciate that and add your name to the credits/topic. Also, I am indeed planning on making more types of crops. (And tools, and bricks) But I want to get the core mechanics working first. |
