In today's update, we're adding a few new crops to harvest, and glow sticks that allow you to customize the colors on your map. This should help doing amazing map pixel art without compromising the actual farm contents too much!
New content:
- Glow sticks that will help you add more color to your map.
- New crop: Beans (4 variants)
- New planter variations with different floor types (sand and snow).
Improvements:
- Added a panel to the Find Farms section explaining the meaning of the different icons and permission levels.
- Farm map now has three zoom levels instead of two. Closest zoom level is a bit closer than before.
- Terraforming: You can now keep the button pressed and terraforming will be applied over new tiles.Target height will be limited to the one where you pressed the button. This is really useful to quickly level or create big extensions.
- Added a setting to control the range where interaction icons are shown. This can have an impact of performance on high values.
- Recipe select window on house jobs will now show how many of that specific item are being prepared (if any).
- Added a new icon in the Find Farms screen, showing an estimation of the amount of items ready for harvest in the farm, proportional to unlocked farm space. We'll be hearing for feedback on this, if it's useful or not, and if it leads to potentially unwanted behaviors.
- Increased Security Booth/Signs maximum range to 18 tiles.
Gameplay changes:
- Slightly decreased favor obtained from quest items. Slightly increased favor obtained from non-quest items. Previously, harvesting quest items gave approximately twice the favor compared to non-quest items. Now it's closer to +125%. This has been done to encourage staying on the same farm to get favor instead of hovering between farms, finishing quests and leaving. We'll be listening for comments and feedback on this change.
Bugfixes:
- Fixed farm synchronization problem caused when harvesting ponds on specific circumstances.
- Fixed Quest UI issues in split screen. Split screen now only shows a single pinned quest, but the rest of pinned quests will show when updated as usual.
- Fixed being able to terraform over tiles with sprinklers.
