]Sandbox biome references
These are references in sandbox configuration, not a verified crop-availability table. Shared defaults, exclusions, farm compatibility and runtime filtering still need interpretation.
- Winterlands
This exact definition appears in the stored build/plant lists below. Runtime unlocks and menu visibility remain untested.
Work schedule fields
Recovered from game v30, build 254. A source match confirms the stored value; it does not confirm live gameplay behavior.
{
"interpretation": "Normalized work-cycle interval; time origin and clock mapping unverified."
}Growth stages
The sapling definition stores 4 stages totalling 7 days: 1.75 + 1.75 + 1.75 + 1.75. sum of configured stages; regrowth, season effects, overrides and final-stage semantics not verified Nobody has timed this plant in play, so whether a stored day equals a clock day, and whether the last stage is the harvestable state or a wait before it, are open questions.
