QoL Suggesstion: Reduce holohouse farming clicks please.

[MantletMangler]

Can we please automatically water plants when we plant them? There is no reason not to water, and making it automatic would save 2 clicks. It doesn't sound like much, but 2 x 8 = 16, which adds up to a lot of extra busy work.

In the same vein, can we please condense harvesting? When we click on a finished plot, there is no reason not to harvest and we don't need to water or rip up the plot. Again it would save a click, and 2 if we had an option to show yields as an output to the message ticker in the bottom left instead as a popup every time.

TLDR: farming menus have a lot of needless button mashing that could be reduced.

It would probably make sense to only bring up the timer prompt if looking at a plant that is

-Already Watered
-Not completed

If the plant is dry, it should automatically water it, and if it's completed, just harvest.

they have an auto cook, they should add an auto plant option.
when you harvest a plant, if you have the same soil and seed, it replants.

combine with auto watering upon plant, and harvesting immediately on clicking, you would basically walk up to a plant, click once, then harvest > plant > water all at once.

would be sooooo much faster.

The first thing that came to my mind was that once you check empty land and decide to Plant
You enter a menu where you use Up/Down to change seeds and Left/Right to change soil, then you just press ogey to confirm them both at the same time

Technically you can do everything with just the keyboard controls and nary a single click
I speedplant this way only using WASD and R (confirm) / space (cancel/exit). Same with the fishing game.

Automating the planting process might be too passive to be worth implementing. While there is a potential for using workers like Minecraft villagers to automatically plant and fish for you and in return you pay them holocoins for their services, it makes the HoloHouse less about actively doing anything and more like an employee management sim… and it’s already quite forgiving on the attention span unlike the main game mode. Not to mention that the workers making Holocoins for you is already almost completely passive once it’s well established (Manager Lv. 4 and maxed gold/platinum workers) and all it requires is a small bit of effort.

But then again, I did grind 1 million sand doing nothing but fishing in HoloHouse at work with Reine rod for a few days (can’t play the main game due to attention span for it being too high) so there might be some bias there, but still, I honestly feel that having everything given to the player on a silver platter makes playing it pointless…

[Oh The Folly]

Something that would speed up farming menus is not showing soil/crops you don't currently have in your inventory when planting. What's the point of having to scroll through half a dozen crops you don't have in your inventory when planting?

Also, being able to easily buy soil/crops in multiples of 4 instead of having to scroll the number up only in increments of 1 (because there's 8 slots you can plant at a time, so I always buy in multiples of 4) would save me loads of time overall.

For fishing, having some way to easily see how much selling all your fish would get you would also help a lot (so you can know how close you are to getting another rod at a glance, without having to either sell everything first, or select everything to be sold and then canceling the sale because you wanted to keep fish for workers).

Edit: And having members be able to show up at Holohouse in any unlocked outfits would be cool. I'm aware you can choose to appear in unlocked outfits, I'm talking about random members that show up.

Pretty much this.
Also the main complaint I'd have is the very limited farm space, not the fex clicks needed for watering...
