Hi Nick,

1)In regards to the VIP Quest Whacks Buff, there is a toggle On/Off button that is not operational when purchased with a vip voucher. Would you consider making this option available?

2) Thanks for all the work you put into giving us new store items this week. Lots of fun to have something new to play with. If you ever add more items to the Botanist store, could you add empty pots and planters like we have in the spring event garden?
And maybe some of the special jungle trees and winter and Christmas trees like we see in the ranch skin themes? Right now we can purchase Spring and Autumn trees from the Botanist, and Summer trees from the store, but Winter trees are not available for purchase.

3) Love the pasture. Thanks for the update. I did notice however that some of the seasonal skins aren't changing the pine trees around the parameter of the pasture.

The prairie and beach themes seem okay.
Spring, summer, fall themes show only pine trees
Christmas and winter themes show only one type of winter tree.
Jungle theme only shows 1 type of palm tree.

1-SPRING EVENT – speaking to players, they had excess seeds leftover, and would like a way to spend them…I have a 2 idea’s

A.allow us to buy more than 1 gift at once, seeing how there is one for seeds and one for tokens, it could work similar to the way it is now, which is you can only buy one gift at once, but my way is you can buy 1 gift basket for both seeds and tokens in 1 day, this could work for Halloween event too

B.Add a questline where we have to find 4-5 rare/endangered plants throughout bushwhackia, and in the end we have the choice of propagating them and it will cost 1,000-2,000 seeds to get 1 plant, im working on the details and will email you ok Dev Nick

2. Firstly thank you nick for the new items in the stores/merchants etc, but can we please get a sandstone cube like the stone and wood one from the casino, and coral to ad to our ranchs too,

3. you mentioned last year, that you were/or would work on a way to allow us to swap runes from one sword to another, without loosing the runes, is that still in the works or on the backburner

Hi Nick,

Just wondering why the quest hubs after Sanctuary Village do not contain a quest that rewards a quester satchel?

1) One day! Fixing that is on my todo list.

2) Empty pots and planters is a great idea! I'll note those, as well as some of the trees in the ranch styles you suggested.

3) I think it makes sense for pine trees not to be affected by the seasonal ranch styles, but agree the Christmas and jungle themes could likely use some variety. I appreciate the details on that issue. I'll note it down to investigate.

Clint does have a "I'd like to see my mount collection" chat option that will open up a similar progress dialog to the PAGAS pet one.

1) Fair suggestions here. I'll note them down to consider for next year's Spring Garden event!

2) A sandstone block and coral are on our ranch items list! Hopefully they'll make it in a future stores update.

3) Rune swapping is still on our list to be considered, but is not actively in development. Our next priority will be Nate's Prismatic Adventure.

It simply wasn't a consideration we had at the time! I'll note it down to consider for future quest hubs though.

Is the option to exchange or gift excess eggs still on the drawing board? I have a LOT of eggs I won't be hatching. They take up space but I'd hate to discard them.

By the way, thanks for the pasture! It will be a quite a while before I can upgrade though. I only have 3 mounts at level 40.

Still on our list to consider! We're hoping to add an interesting way to use/trade/exchange your surplus pet eggs in a future update.

You're very welcome! And good luck. It's a goal to work towards!

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.

A small request for consideration: making the flat-screen, wall-hanging television available in the store, please, perhaps under the category of Wall Hangings.
