Suggestion: New paddy crop
...and a conversion idea of already existing crop into one.
For rice to be profittable, you need to build a mill. Even then, it gets overshadowed by every non-flower crop. While ConcernedApe added a new mechanic in 1.4, it is underwhelming. This is where mods come in.
- Edit: It is a lot more profittable than I originally thought; still, there is only one paddy crop which is a bit... unbalanced?
I have 2 specific ideas:
- Wasabi should change to a paddy crop, since these are grown semi-aquatically IRL. This ties in nicely with taro and rice being paddy crops, AND wasabi being essential to sushi (synergy with river farm).
- Lotus roots. Those are edible, and lotus flowers have cultural significance in parts of Asia. They also happen to be grown in paddy-like conditions. You can get gimmicky and make it both vegetable and flower (and when you harvest it you get both), or just drop the flower and make it purely vegetable.
