[Bug] Crop plot timer bugged

33 votes

After last update, the timer and progress bar on the crop plots hasn't shown true results, as well as crops don't seem to be growing properly.

I'd like to see a crop growth timer on the crop plot tooltip (when you stare at a plot), above the durability bar.

Alternatively, there could be a countdown timer in the same area rather than a percentage bar. Either way would help reduce the time consuming labor of crop plot planting.

Additionally, instead of a grow bar inside the plot interface, I'd love to see an actual timer similar to other crafting tables. (Or an actual percentage on the growth bar on the bottom)

When i plant something in the crop plot i see the timer. When i close the game or restart the timer is gone. The plant is still growing but just the timer bar is gone.

Can confirm the timer is bugged. Have tested it multiple times by planting a crop, exiting prospect then reentering & every time you resume/continue the/any prospect the corp plot timers do not work properly. Not sure if they still continue to mature in the background or not but i ended up having to pull the crops out & replant them.

Still an issue after the update to crop plots this morning, :sadface:

Crops continue to grow but the growth bar in the plot doesn't persist between sessions leaving you to guess. Furthermore, crops that are grown decay because the seeds are moved to another inventory slot in the plot. At this point, using crop plots is almost a penalty not a feature.

Plots would be worthwhile if they continued producing plants (and not expiring) even when not reseeded manually; otherwise, with the requirement for a lot of travel and expiration of foods (even at 50% reduction) there's really no point.

also noticed this bug today, also the items put in to the seed slot should be turned in to seeds, so do not decay over time, this would make the crop plot actually useful, at the moment it feels like im putting 1 in to get 1 at the most out.

I noticed that after putting doing the plot and planting a seed there is a "crop timer" however, when you go to character select or close the game and come back, that time resets to 0 and does not move. The crop will continue to grow, but for those without talents to stop decay... This can be troublesome to stick around and wait it out for however long.

Crop plots gone. I had 15 when I logged off and the next day I have 7. Literally just planted squash in the ones that are gone so I'm back to having to find those in the desert again. Timer was also bugged off and on.

Happens to me. Wasted so much time and resources on an agricultural mission. Why even put it in the game if it doesn't work properly?

There is no progress bar if you disconnect and reconnect.

When I exit out of the game and have crops in my farming plots, upon return it shows that there are crops in the plots but it does not show the progress. This has happened every time I have exited.
