Makes farming in the game take multiple days instead of 1 and puts greater emphasis on using fertilizer
Description
By default, the growth cycle for crops is incredibly short. With water and light, crops grow in just 1 day. Coming from Vintage Story, I wanted a bit more of a challenge. (recommend to pair with a hunger mod)
This mod makes adjustments to the time period growth cycles and the growth modifiers that affect them for all vanilla crops. Penalties for having no water/light are much harsher, and all modifiers are rebalanced to make fertilizer much more rewarding to use.
Total growth times are as follows (in minutes):
| Vanilla | Better Farming | |
| Dry (No modifiers) | 62 | 217.19 |
| Water | 35.46 | 124.11 |
| Water+Light | 15.51 | 54.30 |
| Water+Light+Fertilizer | 8.62 | 30.17 |
I'm open to suggestions and feedback on this mod!
