A) not level/landscape my area
B) not expand or repair lost farms that are/were placed on dirt tiles
C) have to wait several months for enough grass to return to the area to allow planting (aka not play salem for months period until i can farm again)

honestly seeing as plowing fields is doing the exact same as digging grass in to fertile dirt... i dont get why the ability to sow fields on dirt tiles was removed... given the fact farm tiles are by all accounts fertilized dirt.....




~i do like the shadows they look much nicer then they were before. im assuming thats do to the upgrade to java??~

Can you not put the farms first anymore and then flatten the ground after? Also Jorb already said it is a bug and is going to be fixed.

Oh well, what can i say...
shouldn't there be some notification before destroying someones property?
the whole of my underground farm was destroyed, when i tried to recover from the previous update disaster...
just after i have used up all my best purity seeds and mountains of hay, after being raided by criminals after the update where personal claims no longer needed attack banner to be destroyed...

None of my 118 fields got nuked (even ones with tree-stumps sticking out of them) so really they have been quite nice about leaving farms that should have been nuked (in my opinion) seems the only farms they nuked are underground and overlapping.

I think it is ridiculous people are whining about the fields. We were warned. I was hoping to get my higher tier stuff before it happened and that's the only reason I didn't fix mine sooner. My area has been changing back to forest land very slowly and all of my safe area for fields is dirt still. So, the only thing I'm concerned about is the reset that will allow us to put fields on dirt again.

When will we get a reset?

So you reduced the amount of darkness? That makes no sense.

What I get from this is that the world(s) can and should eventually be expanded to reach into complete darkness.
