Hello everyone,

recently I made some experiments with mushroom farms. I am very sure now that mushroom don't grow in a zoned area (aka your /res). I built four farms. All three in my zone were unable to produce mushrooms. The ingame conditions for growing them was met, I read it on the wiki and simulated three variables in the three zoned farms. The fourth farm, just a few blocks outside my residence, can produce mushrooms.

As I dont see a flag which should affect mushroom growth I guess this is a bug, right?

Greetings,
Vögelchen

I got my farm to produce shrooms yesterday by changing almost all the flags from false to true. So there is a flag for that. I just need to narrow it down today.

I would be glad if you can iron it out.

I noticed this too. I can't get mushrooms to grow in my Hobbit hole in Admin Valley.

Your best bet would be the flow flag as far as I know, because it stops the physics from applying.

What are you looking at?

I just tested flow, and its not the cause of bad sex within my mushrooms. Will test further.

It will be build I'd wager. Mushrooms are still items in the game and technically placed when they grow so you would need to turn on either build or place for them to spread correctly. Sub zones people, sub zones!

Thanks for the input Howard. Of course I am testing within a subzone. Its called Kuschelecke.Pilztest
So far I have removed all flags besides pvp, piston and tnt and they still not spread.

not that it is documented, pistons is not in the residence config file I saw yet you need piston true in your res to use them. set mushroom true?

Now Kuschelecke.Pilztest has all flags removed (bar piston cause I am not allowed to) and they still dont grow. There are no flags called mushroom or grow. Any other ideas?

I nailed it down to either animals or firespread set to true. If set so they grow.

It will be fire-spread. The code he uses to calculate fire-spread is the same code he uses to determines tree growth just slowed down greatly. IT would therefore not surprise me to learn he used the same code slowed even more for mushrooms

Indeed, it is firespread. If set to true the shrooms will grow.
