}Sandbox assignment records
Recovered from game v30, build 254. A source match confirms the stored value; it does not confirm live gameplay behavior.

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.
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 10 days: 2.5 + 2.5 + 2.5 + 2.5. 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.

Modelled production capacity
A game day is 300 simulation seconds. The model assumes all inputs delivered and output cleared, and excludes walking, handoffs and contention; it is a ceiling for comparison, not a measured yield.
- Growth time is initial establishment. Felling yield is separate from repeat fruit production.
