Hope it helps anyone!

1.5?

Tilling as plant work would make a lot of sense, since farmers aren't also always really good at constructing it makes tilling fields a waste of time for faster growing crops, and/or forces you to drag your builders in for the tilling work.
Idk if you're still doing Rimworld modding but I look forward to seeing the rework regardless.

Personally I think it's the tilling itself (on VPE) that needs some adjusting too... It takes so looooooong to till the terrain that I decided to just not till it and actually got more harvests during the growth period regardless of the reduced fertility lol

So one suggestion I have for a possible update is to reduce the work needed for tilling as well :)

Will you update it to 1.5? :)

Your rework idea is exactly what I need. If you still want to save some options of fertility, you can make them configurable by people

Been thinking about that lately. I think I might just rework this mod into something like this:
- Adds an auto plow option
- Tilling work is now a growing job instead of construction
- Tilling a tile where a plant exists no longer destroys the plant

There are already mods that just add the auto plow option out there, like this: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2497914485&searchtext=vanilla+plants+expanded

At the end of the day I made this mod for myself, but I'm glad some other people find it useful.

Hey, I know how annoying this request is but - would it be possible to add planting xp to tilling? It'd be nice to have more methods of training up planters and having some be full time.

Well the idea was that rich soil is still better if you don't plan on tilling, but I think I'll look into making it an option.

@Ki Shuya I agree with this idea.
