mickmca Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 I just experimented to confirm this. Being near a gather site has no effect on crop size or gather rate. Upgrading the site to first plow also has no effect. And building the mill not only has no effect, but the mill is not a gather point. Incidentally, the link to the bug report forum does not work, and the Important, Read this first link gives a 404 error. Love the game anyway.

wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Farmstead does not increase rate around itself (only Rotary Mill does this). The upgrade "Iron Plow" affect only the units gatherers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickmca Posted August 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 The Mill doesn't, is what I'm saying. Farmsteads produce the same and the amount the farmer can gather remains the same, whether there is a Farmstead or not. It is also unchanged by the First Plow. The Second Plow increase the gather amount. Does Farming Rate mean speed? With the Forage/Mining sites and upgrades, the amount increases. Most notably, it doesn't seem to matter where you put your farms. They get the Farmstead bonuses anywhere on the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I guess the onlty real problem being reported is you think the first farming upgrade has a bug. Can anyone confirm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niektb Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Normally, if you select the mill all nearby (in a short area around the mill) gatherers get a small icon above their head to show they have a gather speed bonus 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 To be fair, those icons are difficult to see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niektb Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 They were bigger in the beginning but people found them too large, so their size was reduced (and in this particular case it doesn't really help that the wheat is bright yellow because of the sun angle & color) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Color problem in those icons.. Don't get properly contrast from yellow color from farms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 And use a stroke( black) around the icon? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niektb Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 By the time these icons were committed the farms were still green... It already has a black shadow around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
