Hi,
first of all, fantastic mod. It helps a lot to reduce the micromanagement of enabling/disabling crop zones when the seasons change. The smart farming feature should be definitely included in vanilla.
I had two suggestions:
- Could there be a toggle in the options to enable/disable the info of expected nutrition per growing zone? Or any way to reduce the information shown in the lower left box when clicking on a zone? With the mod, when a zone has plants, the text size is larger than the window, obliging the player to scroll down to read everything. I think that ideally the text size shouldn't exceed the window size.
- A toggle for the priority and the petty jobs gizmos would be very useful as well, since not all players use them.
Thanks a lot!

Can I suggest an outside link?
Some friends brought the game on Epic and they don't have access to Steam mods.

This works fantastically with the vanilla grow zone - definitely one of my top fave mods.
I had been wondering, would it be possible to patch this for things like sandy and water zones a la Vanilla Plant Expanded: More Plants?

I have noticed that pawns seem to prioritize even the lowest priority 'soil' grow zone before any sand/water grow zones.

I don't think this is a bug per se, I figure this is more because these aren't "smart" grow zones - hence pawns simply won't farm these alternate zones 'smartly'.

Thanks again for the mod, even if this isn't possible - your work has helped keep Rimworld fun for me and I appreciate that 👍

Is there an elegant way to change the crop type? For example, I want to change my devilstrand field to rice, but I want to wait till each devilstrand is 100%, harvested, then replaced with rice. Right now I can't find an automatic way to do this. If I change crop and set it to allow cutting, they'll cut my devilstrand immediately

I have an indoor greenhouse, a nice 21c year-round, with a sun lamp, so year-round perfect growing conditions, yet if I have "Smart sow" on it prevent sowing due to "bad seasonal temperature" stating plants will likely die before harvest which is simply untrue. Can you possibly add a check for the location of the plants (temperature/roof)?

Can you add an option to disable vanilla game's prohibition against sowing nutrifungus outdoors?

I'm running a Darkness Colony and have deliberately allowed a Sun Blocker mech hive to force permanent darkness on the map. Therefore nutrifungus should grow outdoors, but the game won't even allow me to plant it outdoors. When I designate a growing zone it displays "Warning: Nutrifungus cannot live when exposed to light." and if I try to force a colonist to sow it by right clicking on the growing zone it displays "Cannot sow: unroofed".

Expected behavior: the game should let me plant nutrifungus outdoors, and let me live with the consequences if it happens to die when exposed to light.

Thanks!

I third this idea

Can we get a "Don't plant over existing plants" Option?

For example I want to replace my rice farm with a potato farm,but there already are some rice sprouts growing. The ideal scenario would be if pawns planted the potatoes only after the rice has been harvested
