Hello everyone, i will be discussing the changes to farming below.
As you all know farming is a job where you plant seeds on ol west, leave them, and then come back to harvest them.
The problem is that farming is now the
main source of income on ol west with little to no drawbacks, with people making numerous alts and then ending up with tons of gralats.
We've added a few changes to farming that are as followed.
- We've currently restricted the amount of land you can have in your house, we now have it where you can only have
25 out at a time
-You will also have to sell your old garden to buy the new one (cost the same: 250)
-You are now
required to water your plants to keep them alive,
you will have to buy a watering can for your crops
-it is a
one time use,
after being used you will be given an
empty watering can
You can go to
giant pools of water you can refill all your empty watering cans.
you will be prompt a message of how many watering cans were re-filled
-If you go near your crops you will see a empty gui
-Watering your plants will fill the gui
-And as time goes on the water will slowly drain
-If left empty your plants will start to get
damaged and then become withered
you can still harvest withered crops and eat them but its not recommended.
IF YOUR CROPS ARE FULLY GROWN YOU ONLY HAVE 30 MINUTES BEFORE THEY WITHER, REGARDLESS OF THEIR WATER BAR
And one last change we included, to those that want to
speed up their crops growth rate,
you can buy fertilizer for 250 Gralats this will cut your crops wait time by 30%
When you use fertilizer it will
darken the soil and add a
fertilizer icon near the water GUI.
This buff will stay on your crop till it is harvested.
We will add more changes in the future, i know its going to be different now that farming has a few drawbacks but the old one was just too over powered when it came to getting Gralats.
Farming shouldn't be something you get tons of Gralats for doing absolutely nothing.
We're open to ideas below.
I WILL BE POSTING CHANGES THROUGHOUT THIS THREAD
