They could come by when ever 5416593 you liked nick (mocha helped me type)they could come on AI or the commons your choice

13 Posts	Link to post - Posted May 3rd 2022 at 12:50 AM Bushmasta Hello Nick! Previous post I have asked about not researchable plants. Here are the ones I can't research: 1. Mutated ones from Sanctuary Village - they are not $-bought ones, they are like like flux ones :) 2. Pumpkins 3. Radishes 4. Carrots 5. Wheat 6. Corn 7. Honeydew 8. Passion fruit 9. Blueberries 10. Grapes 11. Watermelon 12. Strawberries I'd say it's quite a lot of the omitted plants... :D As for the number of plots... Well I sometimes could use more of them - especially when a daily quest with some "special" plants comes up. I usually try to seed like this: 1. 4 gold plants with growth time of 8-24h 2. 4 energy plants with growth time of 8-24h 3. 6 long-term plants (growth time of 2+ days) 4. that leaves me with 6 plots for short-term and quest plants. Even 2 more plots would allow me to better optimize the research schedule :D

Is there a way you could add a toggle On/Off switch to unlock the statue? Or a toggle to keep Nate from coming around at all? 3) I love Russel Denton's suggestion to put a surface on the water behind our ranch house. All the items suggested are great ideas. That ship is huge and would look so much better on water than on land. I'd also like to add another idea for water items if it hasn't already been mentioned: I would like to see all pool toys, floaties, and maybe even a beach chair, etc.

Here is the wiki link for reference: https://bushwhacker2.fandom.com/wiki/Plant_Splicing_Station However, you have to plant and harvest crops at least one time for them to show up in the Plant Splicer research list. Rare seeds, like Magic Beans, or Mushrooms cannot be researched. As of April 2, 2021, Super Blueberry, Mutated Berry, and Mutated Pepper crops can be researched at the plant splicer table *Flux Flax Seeds can be researched

If there was ever a place where we could use two extra trinket slots this would be it ! Perhaps there could be an extra set of two trinket slots for the flungeon only? This might coax more players there!

Just a thought--- you could do a red and white V.W. Bus just for kicks and giggles. Groovy, baby.

107 Posts	Link to post - Posted May 7th 2022 at 4:06 PM Vegan1964 Could we have a separate tab for eggs like we do for trinkets and feed? Over the years I have collected a number of eggs and it sometimes hard to locate a specific egg amongst all the other objects. Thanks!

It's looking like Generation 15 will be closer to July, based on our content schedule and resources.

I've already got it in my suggestions document to look into allowing the water/pool ranch items and critters onto the lake. I certainly agree this would be preferable to using the current method!

Please try growing and harvesting those crops again, and see if they show up in the plant splicer. If they don't, please submit a support ticket so I can take a closer look. I'll consider adding more farm plots. It does have balancing concerns that I'll have to run some numbers on, however, as I mentioned in past replies to this suggestion.
