Farming
From the Slaves Wiki
Crops feed your slaves and sell to the vendor. Everything grows on crop patches you lay down with wood, one seed per cell.
The loop
- Press B and draw a patch, 2x2 up to 6x6 cells, at 5 Wood per cell.
- Stand on a cell and press E to plant a seed.
- Keep it watered. A dry cell grows at 10% speed.
- When it is ripe, press E on it again to harvest: 1 crop plus some seeds back, and a 8% chance of a seed of another crop.
Water
- A fresh planting starts watered for 1 min.
- Rain and storms water every crop on the shore while they last.
- Workers at a Silo fetch water and pour it on dry cells for you.
Silos
Patches within 240px of a Silo grow in 80% of the time and give more seeds. Assign slaves to the silo and they plant, water and harvest on their own, filling the silo.
