I've been thinking about companion trinkets as well as "convenience" trinkets.... Perhaps if you could delineate which trinkets are "convenience" both in code and for players, the companion could ONLY wear a convenience trinket.

Similar ideas have been suggested! Such as having such a slot or two added that are only for "convenience" or novelty trinkets, like a One Ring.

I am partial to this suggestion, and am serious considering it for a future Quality of Life update.

Question about Friend Helps.
Does the system use your bonuses or those of your friend? It would be cool if it was your friends.

I'd like to push to flux quickly, however, the cenote task list is very long and before I do enough things to power up anyway quickly, I think I will crash. You did not think about giving the option to buy one orb puzzle for 20 diamonds or 10 million gold to go quickly mountain passage and push further to the flux

A way to by-pass the Cenote Site to get into the Mountain Passage is an interesting idea, that a fair number of players would likely support. I'll give it some thought!

As we are now moving into the fall, last December during a dev talk, i suggested it would be nice to be able to make it night like you do in the commons for the play.

so any chance I'll be able to dim the lights so my Christmas lights will really shine? i'd also love to be able to dim the lights when using the fireworks launcher.
seems you could use the same method you use for the play, but it would be nice to have a permanent off/on switch light switch for the ranch.

looking forward to your answer

I remember this suggestion! I wish it was as easy as just dimming the scene, but I'd also need to go through every object that would make light and change it so it would make light. This makes it a fair bit more of a challenging task. That being said, I do think it's a fun idea and will consider it!

Any chance of getting a tutor counter to show progress towards the 50 allowed?

Is this regarding training the junior whacks for the event? If so, a counter would be handy. I'll note this down to consider for next year.

Nick, I noticed that in talking to Clint in the Commons there is conflicting information given. If you click the first option of tell more about mounts, it answers the question of changing the bonus as not possible at this time. But if you click the use my mount bucks and want to spend, it says that some bonuses may be changed. This is confusing.

Could you submit a support ticket and mention the exact chat options you pick and the dialog in question?

For the Science-Gro, what are the applicable crops?????

Any crop you can research! Which I think just excludes some premium crops found in package deals.

I have noticed that there are no mounts that start with a 5% boost for event items. There is no feed for the event item % boost also - which means it is never an option for upgrading our mounts. Is this intentional? Why?

I'm actually not certain! I'd guess there was a reason. I'll make note of this and give it some thought.

Do you have any plans for a community quest? We haven't had one for a long time. I love it when all the players come together to achieve something.

I do have an idea that is partly thought through and when it's complete I could maybe email it to you? so if you wish to use it, it would be a surprise for the players.

I really love the community quests too! I've been focusing on permanent content at the moment, but hope to do more community quests in the future.

Here is a few idea's i came up with...

1- adding onto Elsastar96's idea about having a community quest/s, here's my idea....for the xmas event around middle of it, a plain tree ( a big one, the size of the skyscraper or a bit shorter ) appears in the event area , and a elf appears beside it, and we get to choose whether to go find 50,000, Baubles, Tinsel, Lights, candy cane and star, and we have to find each one in increments of 30 or 50, as for a reward for doing it each time we get something...it need a bit of work/adjustment

2- On to another community quest, this one will take place after halloween, and it will be about us dealing with zombie turkey's, and this one is a bit more simplier.....Nate buys a untested food grain for poultry and feeds it to turkies
to prepare for thanksgiving, and the feed makes them become zombified, and we have to help stop the invasion

3- CRAZY IDEA ALERT - so in the past few valentine's day event we have helped Nate pick the "right" "unfortunate" woman to be with and we have also helped the poor and yet so lucky woman that got dumped too, so i was thinking what if we tried setting up Nate with the Princess, and they end up hooking up, and after the valentines day event we have a mini event where we help plan their wedding etc, and for halloween we help stop nate and princesses kids from taking over the land of bushwhackia

4- Since now that same sex marriages are legal now in most countries etc, why not have a same sex marriage in bushwhackia, i was thinking either the 2 guys from the shop right hand side of the hall or the 2 trinket folks left side of hall or even Misty and Natalie


happy to hear folks thoughts

1) Very cool christmas themed idea! I'll note it down to consider for the winter.

2) Zombie Turkeys!!! Oh no! Very interesting Fall idea!

3) Pairing off Nate and the Princess?! Yikes! Haha! I'll note it down to consider.

4) Aww the trinket guys or shop owners getting together? Cuuute! Same for Misty and Natalie. Some queer representation would be good for the Commons, certainly! Neat ideas, Russel.

But the teleporting ruffles the tent flaps!

Junior Bush Whacker event - How about adding Advanced Placement classes in other tasks Bush Whackers perform. We would mentor the Juniors – show them how to do it. Each Junior could select one of the classes and prizes could be awarded at the end of each class. Some ideas for Courses/prizes:
1. Michin Fishing (severely abbreviated) – prize could be a stuffed baby Michin or pet would be nice – could change colors each year
2. Digging – prize could be a pot of gold
3. Gaming- Prize maybe a gaming guru hat
4. Finding hidden objects – last object found could be prize
5. Gambling – prize could be 5 BBs (or 1, or 10)
6. Mount training – (similar to pet raising in Dog Days event) - Mount we purchase
7. Mini Golfing - prize could be something related to golf
8. We do pet raising and alchemy in other events but could also make a choice here if more needed

Very interesting idea here, Joyce! Very thoughtful and thematic! I'll note it down to consider for next year's Jr. Bush Whacker event!

You should already be able to get it in the prior years' items store during this Christmas event!

I believe it's your own bonuses. Using there's is a very cool idea though!

Okay folks, this is all I have time for, thus concluding this week's forum Q&A! Thank you for the questions, feedback, and discussion! I hope those quietly reading this afterwards find it informative.

This week's Bush Whacker Weekly livestream on Twitch is cancelled, so we'll catch you next week! Ta ta for now!
