Length of day is to short
IMO I think the length of the day in the game is to short. By the time I water/plant the 10 farming plots I have the day is already to noon. Then by the time I get to the the 3rd area its already night. If I travel back to where my base is morning comes and then a couple minutes later the day resets.
I hope they make days longer or have some type of slider to increase the length of the day. Maybe some would like it as short as it is and others might like it longer

I think it's just that watering takes too long if you're growing more crops than you can irrigate on one tank refill. Planting and harvesting at greater scales becomes faster as your tools improve, but watering is always a finicky time muncher. Contrast rainy days that you happen to harvest and replant on. You're done with the chores in a couple minutes.

If the charged splash would more reliably cover a whole square of crops, it would probably smooth out this rough spot pretty well. You could get into a groove and be done by lunch, leaving the whole rest of the day to explore or build or whatever.

I see and understand your point. But I would still like longer days since we don’t have an energy bar to deal with. Then the rest wouldn’t be an issue.

Sounds like a fine per-world option to me.

Definitely.

It would be nice to have world options. I'd also like a weather option as it's been raining almost constantly for me which I get is handy but I just want it to be sunny for a while.

Not the day is to short, the night is too long! Half of that clock is evening/nighttime. And its way to fast.

I agree. I love this game but I think the days are way too short. I think that is my major (and so far only) complaint. Since it is a fairly big world, by the time you get somewhere there's no time to do much before it starts to get dark. Please make the days much longer, or as Ceji suggested, implement a slider.

+1 With travel times around the world, I think the days need to be at least 50% longer.

I’ve upgraded my mech on the first stage all around. It is already an improvement for getting around. But it’s a race to get to point A, find what you need and get back.

We can save and quit anytime in the game. So if the days are too long, it won’t be such an issue. I would like to explore more rather than to race against a short fuse.
