Starting farm

[GorgonCZ]

Ok game looks good but why oh why does the starting farm after I buy it have so much clutter that I cannot remove? There is even a not working unremovable chicken coop. Fix your maps guys.

Why I never use the premade farms. I start with Start From Scratch and build my own farm on land I buy when I have enough money.

I start with 1-2 fields and basic equipment to work the fields and work my way up to a full farm.

I also do this.

Well sure but the place is perfect if it were not so broken.

Hi

I reported this issue my self to Giants and this is the response i got

"The chicken coop of the starter farm on Riverbend is a deco only and is also not sellable. This is an art direction and not an issue."

In other words they know it's there and they don't care, so were stuck with it

[snickii]

why not using the mods that are already released, there you can remove everything, paint everything, terraforming everything..

[ArtemFC]

Modders will fix it soon enough, like they always do!

[GorgonCZ]

That slightly angers me. How can unsellable decoration be an art direction? Why is that not regular coop when you got cow pasture? The logic is mind boggling.

I rarely use the starting maps, once I know what I'm doing, I just use mod maps. tbh I am waiting for my favourite mods to appear from FS22 before playing it again.

If it's an art direction, why didn't they remove the ugly yellow loading point from it as well. It's hardly artistic. I have my doubts about the sincerity of that response from them.

It's also frustrating that we are unable to remove it for a proper one. It turns the ugly artistic direction into an additional restriction for the player. I was hoping to just place a proper one exactly where it was to make use of what's clearly meant to house chickens.

Odd choice, GIANTS

Well that fully answers my questions as well as solving them. Ty community!

That's interesting. I thought for sure it was bugged out. There are several non removable sheds that serve no purpose, and chicken coops on other farms on the maps that can't be used either. I'm wondering if the person who replied to that report was confused about it? Because if it is a decoration, why does it have the egg spawn black and yellow square.

I don't recall where I saw the update on this issue, but apparently GIANTS are aware of the oddity and have said it will be fixed in a future patch. It seems there are conflicting statements coming out of the development team.

Very weird (to put it mildly) "art direction" to decide to have one starter coop being "decoration only".
The real reason is they forgot to "activate it", just like they forgot to active fertiliser part on one of the planters, and a few other "forgorns"

Ya guy few days ago posted reply he received. And it said they knew and were looking into a fix.
