Farming - Ready to work again, what do I do now?

[Killbot Alpha]

 I'm starting to regret long term mode, maybe instead you should have it in arcade mode, but up the prices of everything by a lot, lower the harvest value of crops, or a little bit of both. The thing that's wrong with long term is that you don't do very much and it can get boring, you just water your crops, then leave, and then come back to harvest/ water again. Plus, what if someone is asleep? Then the crops just die.(Came back after playing a game of Destiny, crops died of dehydration). By the way, if the final server isn't in arcade mode, you only see people join for 5 minutes to water their crops/turn the sprinklers on, and then leave. It was fun on the old server people people were more active. Dren, your crops died along with Mr.Queeba's. And anyone is allowed to toggle other people's valves.

 And what is the sprinkler's range, and does having the sprinkler irrigation bricks being clicked on even do anything or is it cosmetic?

I saw that you did that so it would lessen the lag of the server.

Uh, no. It was just a bug. It's fixed now.

You realize the crops take an entire day to die now? I may make it even longer later on if need be. The idea of crops taking longer is that you only need to stop in daily if that's what you want to do. You're not really supposed to try and play for hours straight.


Anyway, I removed the password from the server, and sprinklers work you're gone.

sounds like you're making good progress on the server; i look forward to trying it out myself in a week or so

Testing so far is going great and all. Really nice.

i use theses pipes bricks for my ship, they are lovely!

[DrenDran]

So I made it so you can't use other people's pipe valves without build trust. I fixed the issue with wheat bricks floating. I made it so you can clear dead plants without bugs. And I made months longer to correspond to the new longer growth time. Next thing to add is support for the perennial crops like grapes.

...You realize the crops take an entire day to die now? I may make it even longer later on if need be...

 They used to die pretty quickly when a few days ago, I logged out to play Speedkart X and came back in 30 minutes and they died of dehydration. Probably because the sprinklers automatically turning off. thanks for fixing it, and for increasing the amount of cash given, since it made setting up a small sprinkler system actually possible.

how's the progress on this going?

 Im sorry for bumping, but...

how's the progress on this going?

If you're wondering what happened, I got really busy with other stuff and more or less figured I'd just wait until college starts back up again to actually host it. When college begins almost all of my time is free, believe it or not. I've got maybe three more weeks in which I'll probably do some small scale development.

[Silboy20]

Is it gonna be dedicated?

[DrenDran]

Good news ya'll, tomorrow's my last day of full time work. I start college soon and will have a lot of time to work on this starting next week.

Ok then, good luck.

So the testing server is back up but it's been so long since I worked on this server that I forgot what I was supposed to do. It seems like you can grow and harvest crops just fine.
