1 year ago did a little more experimenting in sandbox, it seems that the real issue is that bottom path farmer doesnt work when a village is already buffing a farm first, as village overrides the buff. so whichever of the two buffs is received first (or perhaps whichever tower is placed first in general), either xx4/xx5 village or xx3/xx4/xx5 farmer is the one the farms receive a buff from - never both at once
Been playing for a bit now and noticed my 205, and by extension the xx5 as well as xx4 and xx3, doesn't increase the income of nearby farms at all. Have some 420 farms and a couple 200 as well, which are making 448 and 23 respectively in due to a nearby 104 village. Numbers should be 900 per crate for an otherwise unbuffed 400 farm, which mine arent even close to while buffed by middle crosspath and village buff. Also tried getting rid of all farmers and replacing, as well as placing new farms, neither of which worked. Seems the path doesnt work for anything except MAYBE its own banana generation.
