Crop Growth/Production Multiplier Please

[PostMortemPain]

Hey Ark Devs, can we get a slider/multiplier in the server settings for customizing the crop growth speeds and/or how quickly they produce crops when fully grown? In single player especially this would be really nice because your game doesn't persist when you log out. Am I just missing something and this is already covered under one of the other settings? Thanks!

I haven't seen it but I would agree. I have actually just been keeping my single player game alive at night and putting my stuff on god mode while off so that things will grow. lol. But this would be a better solution.

There are sliders for all that where you set up your single player session. The window you click "play single player".

"Harvest amount" = How much you get per hit/use
"Harvest health" = how many times you can hit/use it
"Resourses Respawn Period" = How fast it grows back.

one hit on a tree with a metal ax gets me about 147 pcs of wood :) with "harvest amount" of 30
One rock pickup turns into 30 rocks

Yeah, I know you can change those settings but as far as I know they don't affect the yield of the seeds that you plant in crop plots. They affect the amount of resources you get from harvesting trees/rocks/corpses/bushes etc. but they don't have anything to do with farming plots.

Ooops My bad. I misread your post.

Great idea, it took 4 sessions before plant X reached maturity and full triffid like menace, and veggies seem to take a lot longer than that.
Greater yield I'm not fussed about, but totally agree that a plant growth slider would be pretty neat, with perhaps default as a minimum setting, and perhaps x3 for growth max.

I actually just found out that you can spawn in seeds using entity ID270-279 if you look on the wiki. These seeds will grow instantly and produce crops significantly faster than normal. I don't know if you're opposed to "cheating" in this particular circumstance but it seems like a good alternative for single player at the moment if you're interested.

I already had x30 growth rate on my lan world and i tried your entity ID270-279 tip and it works....i destroyed my current crops and replaced them with the ID270-279 seeds and as soon as they grew i got 149 of each crop and 5 seeds!!!!!
