10 years ago Hey, wait. I don't think that the other bug was fixed in my issue - that of hemp plants not spawning more than one hemp seed item, which allows you to plant only one hemp plant, which is not consistent with the increasing gains of the other plants.
I think it's a relatively simple change. Once that lands this is truly closable.
Ok, so a conversation on IRC led me to test how farming works via savegame editing the time the game is in so that the plants hit harvestable stage instantly.
My results thus should be easily reproduce able, but may not represent the yields from natural growth, also I haven't identified a difference between fertilized plants and nonfertilized plants in terms of yield.
I found that: Strawberry seeds get 4 strawberry seeds and 1 strawberries item Blueberry seeds get 4 blueberry seeds and 1 blueberries item Wheat seeds gets 4 wheat and 4 wheat seeds Hemp seeds gets 5 cannabis and 1 hemp seeds item Fungal seeds explode into spores.
I would like to call out the fact that hemp seeds drop 1 hemp seeds item, which, can be used to plant another hemp plant. The other seeds, however, exhibit increasing returns for seeds which, presumably, allows the player to expand their farm each harvest. Hemp doesn't.
In addition, i'd also like to ask that hemp drops some sort of plant fiber in large quantity on harvest, as one of the biggest uses of hemp apart from drugs is for making ropes and such from the fiber. I'm thinking that it should drop around 200 - 300 plant fiber.
Also, how does fertilizer work? I plant fooded some samples for testing and it created a "fertilizer" item nearby the plant. I couldn't do anything with the item, which said it was a token for the fertilization of a plant. Is this how it's supposed to work?
See picture. The green *s are fertilizers.
