Can you ban exterminator? Hes killing people with the rocket launcher.

So yeah, I have no idea what was going on, but the jail just was not working. People kept on being able to escape and I really do not understand that.
Anyway, server's private for a bit while I add:

• New property system, in which roads are no purchaseable.
• Blueberries are done, just gotta script them in.
• More or less rewrite the planting system to work around seasons.
• Make seasons. As well as an entire time system.
• Add in bees, and the polination system.

I also have to go to an event irl in two hours, so if I don't finish by then, the server could be down for quite some time.

I have accomplished absolutly nothing.
 

Shut down the server thinking I was gonna make some relativly quick updates, then I went on a walk, went to an irl event, took a shower and went to bed, now I'm here. So I still gotta make all those updates, and then the server will be online.

How will the seasons work? Will winter make the plants grow slower or something?

[DrenDran]

The new server is a complete rewrite of the crops system.
First of all, there is a 13 day year. 2 days winter, 3 days spring, 6 days summer, and three days of fall. Days will either be 10 or 15 real minutes. With 15 minute days, a year is 3 hours, 15 minutes.
Everyday the tempature changes, a few posts above can be seen average tempatures for each day under "avg".
Anytime the tempature goes under 32 degrees, all crops die.
The closer the tempature is to 77 degrees (i searched "optimal plant tempature" lol) the quicker the plants will grow.
Growth is affected by hydration as well, watering is also changed a lot from the old server.
You water crops with a watering can (the old watering cans will be replaced with hoes, to plant new crops) and you keep watering them. If you over water them, they'll suffer a penality, if you underwater them they'll grow slower, if they completly run out of water, they die. The soil changes color with hydration.
Fertility stays more or less unchanged, it just effects yeild, maybe growth speed.
If you do it just right, some crops might get two harvests in a season, others like blueberries and grapes might take a few years (a few hours to a real life day) to grow to full, but once they do, they'll give many harvests a season.


There's other stuff I'm sure I'm forgetting, and I'm sorry that's a lot to read.
It's supposed to be more realistic. With a planting season, and a harvest season, rather than just planting and harvesting all year round.

O woops, sorry bout them models... :s

When will the new server be up?

[DrenDran]

Closed beta in just a little bit.
Keep in mind your stuff will be cleared on the public release.
And that you're there to find and report bugs.

[Benjamin Lopez]

Can I help?

[DrenDran]

Can I help?

Anyone who wishes to apply can PM me over the forums or RTB.
I'm only selecting a few testers because this isn't going to be a big deal.
I'm doing a few hours of testing, and once I've found a few bugs, it's going public.
Most likley tonight.

This went from a Farming server to CityFarmingRPG.

Not a bad thing.
The main philosophy is that no one should make money for doing nothing, which is what separates it from your regular cityrp.

I know.
At least it gives you more things to do than just farm and wait all day.
Maybe there could be a way to turn grapes into wine and potatoes into french fries so you could make more money.
