[Submitted] Mature Plant Reset After Lot Unclaimed

1. Title: Mature Agriculture Plant Water-Timer Reset After Lot Unclaimed
2. Reproduction Rate: Im not rich enough to try and reproduce this, but it happened to me twice
3. Blocker: No
4. Scene: Storm's Reach -> Aerie
5. N/A
6. I had a ton of cotton plants on a city sized lot (~1100), and I watered them all the way and let them grow to mature. They were ready for harvest, when I got a great deal on a city lot in another town. So I just unclaimed the deed to my lot containing all the mature cotton plants, and all those items got sent to my bank. I claimed the new city lot in a new town, and then got all my planters out of the bank. To my surprise, all of them were in the "Watered" state, and are no longer "Mature" (cant be harvested).

I recently unclaimed a different lot I had, so I wanted to check it's planters that were sent to my bank. This 2nd lot also had its mature plants reset to "Watered" state.

I dont know what phase the plants are at currently (2nd water? 3rd?). If its not the final stage, then this is an expensive bug as I use a lot of water.

I also logged out and back in to see if it was just a graphical bug - the "Watered" state persisted.

I would expect that the planters in my bank would still maintain the "Matured" state, and that I could harvest the plants after plopping the planter down in my new lot.

7. User specs: N/A, see signature, I was on Linux client at the time.

 

Also, if this helps, I specifically took the planters from the bank to my own inventory. Then I placed them from my inventory to the ground of my lot. While dragging the planter, and for about 1/2 of a second after releasing it, the cotton displayed as mature / harvestable. About 1/2 second later, it turned into "Water" and the white cotton graphics disappeared. So it was like some part of the game remembered they were "mature" cotton plants, and it "reset" their state after they were placed on the ground.

 

Upon logging in this morning, all of my cotton plants were matured and able to be harvested. Thankfully it did not reset to the beginning of the planting phases. Since it was cotton outside, it couldnt have been a complete reset of the last watering phase, which would be like 16 hours I think. It must have merely reset a few hours into its most recent phase.

 

There are still symptoms related to this original problem: https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f.../mature-plants-unable-to-be-harvested.162650/

 

Thanks for the report!
