Fluroflux: Stingfrond Agriculture


Bioluminesence is too cool to not grow! Stingfronds can be planted. Harvesting Stingfronds gives nettles, which are processed with Bioflux to make Fluroflux, a slow release dense nutrient. Stingfronds also have uses in neurotoxic ammunitions, great for Gleba!

i Artificial soil?

4 months ago

I'm rather fond of the concept of artificial soil for planting Yamuko and Jellynuts. Do you think it would be a good idea to add something similar for Stingfrond? Looking at the map, fields of Turquoise Bark Lichen are often peppered with Cracked Lichen and Highland Rocks. A basic soil which can be placed over Lichen, at the very least, would be quite helpful. Maybe an advanced soil to cover highland rocks?

I know this may be overpowered and I doubt it's a trivial amount of work, but it would be nice to have - at least "mod optionally" :)

Its a great idea, and I resisted putting in any additional soils for all my mods - as the space for all of these add ins really isn't too hard to come by... when I get time I'll try add in some sort of grow-anything soil, as I think that would be useful too.

I actually put together an artificial soil mod together on my own after asking. It's unpublished because it's unfinished - was thinking of adding soils for all of your agri mods, but didn't get around to it :)

I doubt it's going to be useful to you, and some of the stuff in there is placeholder from Alchemistry (thumbnail, changelog, graphics kind of), but I thought it worked pretty well. While the soil available for Stingfrond is very widely available, it's pitted with Highland Rock and Cracked Lichen soils, which actually drastically reduces the practical farming space available. The Agri tower needs 3x3 tile sectors, so a little 2x2 blotch of Cracked Lichen can block 4 entire sectors. Even with this soil, you still have to contend with rock intrusions and other terrain, but at least your planting fields can be made smoother.

Let me know if you're interested in doing actual soils for your mods, of if I should just publish what I have.
