BlooodY Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 sorry if it's wrong. delete lookup if it is incorrect I personally think harvesting on E was the best. 😀Definitely think they should go back to it again. 🧐I have a lot of problems when hitting, so I hit the seed instead of the plant opposite 😔 What do you think? 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RipClaw Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Pressing E is more comfortable but on the other hand E is also used for other activities like jumping out of the gyrocopter Personally I have no preferences in this respect. If you wanted to make it realistic you would have to harvest the plants with a knife which actually works well in the game because you can aim more precisely. I know there were mods for A18 that brought this back but I don't know if they still work for A19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXSe Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 It just bugs me when I miss (goldenrod and chrysanthemum mostly) and whack something else entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanea Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 definitely ... removing it was completely pointless i bet everyoneoften hit blocks around /already harvested seed next to target just to facepalm and replant it 14 hours ago, RipClaw said: Pressing E is more comfortable but on the other hand E is also used for other activities like jumping out of the gyrocopter Personally I have no preferences in this respect.

Ornias Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 One of the first mods I install. I can gather enough in the 1st few days of running back and forth to last 100 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dethar Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Ugh, this again. Yes, you can mod in for E to pick up, and its fine for starting out game. With new skill for the extra harvest, E still only gives 1. TFP could not get it working with E, and neither could modders. So you are going to have to except its gone from vanilla.

In order to allow people to use the new skill that makes you harvest 2 and 3 they had to change how we harvest. Everything else calculates harvest amounts and stuff when we hit it. Neither side has figured out how to get the perks to apply with the use of the E key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanea Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 even if this was truth ( doubt) its no biggie to require shovel to "destroy" seeds so people dont have to replant half after every harvest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On what basis? These are literally the people with the best knowledge of how the game works and how to change it. You know better, do you? I apologize for my tone, but man the distrust of expert opinion - an epidemic in my country (and literally contributing to another epidemic) - really, really frustrates me. It's no sign of weakness to acknowledge that other people know significantly more about a topic than you (or I) do. Your shovel idea is good, but I dunno about "no biggie". Maybe maybe not. Ever since I learned to look slightly up when harvesting (never looking down at the plant) I haven't lost but maybe 1 in 100 seedlings to harvesting. Spacing rows out with a 1-block gap helps also.

Reckis Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Here's an idea . . . Instead of expecting the designers to change the game to fit your inability to adapt, how about you change the way YOU do things? I too had a problem with accidentally hit seeds and having to replant them when I was trying to harvest. What did I do? I adapted and found a better way; standing in a different spot, arranging my plants in a slightly different way, etc. And guess what? Now? I rarely (if ever) accidentally harvest a seedling when trying to harvest a fully grown plant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The newer plant models generally seem to have less of a problem with accidentally hitting the seeds. Apparently they have adjusted the hit box to solve this problem. The hitbox of the old models such as golden rod and chrysanthemum does seem a little wonky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that is true, but I never plant those two (or cotton) for purposes of harvesting them. Decoration only. Do people actually farm goldenrod and chrysanthemum? WTF?!? It is literally everywhere! And cotton? Seriously? Past the first couple of hours it is much more efficient to get cloth from the POI's, which you are going to be in anyway.

I will keep just one plot of goldenrod, but I do a bunch of chrysanthemum. It is literally everywhere, but over time it does deplete and it's just easier to have it close to base.

SylenThunder Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Actually had a discussion about this with another server owner last night, and they brought up an issue I hadn't considered. Say you plant your plants. They're all out there in the open, but protected from other players farming them because you have your LCB covering the area. Right up until you change it so they can be picked using the E button. As soon as you do that, anyone can pick your crops. As others have stated, adjusting to the change took me all of about 30 seconds. I accidentally "destroyed" maybe 5 plants and had to re-plant the seed I harvested on destruction. Next harvest I adjusted the way I was doing things, and haven't had the issue since but one time where my finger had a spasm and double-clicked.

Ezed Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I can relate...Coffee and Hops seem the worst offenders in my experience, but find the sweet spot and it happens less. Reality is though, the game has more important issues so it's probably one of the quirks we're going to have to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the game shouldn't change, it has changed, and will change. That is the nature of EA. What I have a problem with is people continuously @%$*#!ing about systems that have been changed and TFP has clearly stated will NOT be reverted, instead of adapting to the new normal, or going and getting a mod that tickles their nostalgia for a legacy system.
