New cultivating mission

[Medley Of Games]

Tried the new cultivating mission today, and it needs a lot of work. Got all the warnings of " this needs to be plowed first" and "crops wont grow here as well". Also when I was almost done with the field it said I was " stealing another's crops", and I lost some social points! Just a heads up if you try one of these missions, it needs some work, and you will lose social points so I won't do them anymore until it gets fixed

You may have come to another field while turning, and centimeters are enough. Then you get the message you are destroying the crop of your neighbor. I also did a mission and worked perfectly.

I had two missions, one worked perfectly (except that I had to destroy harvest). The second mission was on a 3.54 hectare field. I destroyed crop, ignoring all warnings and suddenly I lost thousands of euros and social points shortly before completion. By the way, it was in the middle of the field. So I drove to the client and all my points and euros were back plus salary. So - everything was fine, but it made me very nervous ;-) But of course it should not be like that - I do not want to destroy the crop.

The crop was not harvestable yet, it was small, just started growing

No, I did not hit any other field. Glad your mission worked. I hope others test this, I can't be the only one this is not working right with

didn't try the cultivate missions yet (didn't have one yet), but I had the same "finish" problem with plowing missions on already sown fields.

I can imagine the problem is even harder with cultivation missions that drop a warning, because then the message queue maybe occupied the very moment the "ready" message needs to be displayed, it will be delayed and thus you already "damage the field" when the ready message finally can be displayed.

the recurring warnings are not necessary anyways. same as for the filled up tank/trailer.
this game asks a lot of focus from the player, regarding where to drop your yield and not to overload the tank/trailer or else you lose yield, it won't stop on it's own like in other farming sims.
repeating such a warning endlessly in 3second beat is just a nuisance and means not taking the player for serious. it's a total discrepance here, on the one hand expecting the player to watch his load level carefully using ES, holding that right mouse button, not even having a gauge, on the other hand every three seconds "your trailer is full" while you already know it because you're driving to the mill - that's just unnecessarily going on player's nerves.

Totally agree Kaeru, it's very frustrating the way they are doing some things. I love this game but sometimes it wears me out. I know it's EA though so I'm sticking with it
