PLEASE Put A Cap On...

When we try to drink 20 butterfly milks, but only need five to be full-up on mood, we only drink five.  Will you please, PLEASE put such a cap on piggies and batterflys (and sloths, when they're introduced)?  ie. If you accidentally feed a pig 184 potatoes, it will only take the three it needs to create a plop.

It is maddening to lose half of your inventory to a misclick!  I KNOW I can't be the only one who is frustrated by this issue.

  • Either that, or get the full guano/seed benefit from over-feeding.
    I would not, personally, mind feeding a pig three stacks of potatoes (240) if I got 80 seeds out of that mess.
    It would actually make my gardening process more efficient.
    In the case of batterflies, it would also be amusing to, in the event of overfeeding, have them collapse to the ground, groan for a bit, and then produce the guano.

  • +1 to being able to feed a whole stack and get the right amount of seeds from it instead of only getting one seed regardless of the amount fed.

  • If the goal is not to make seed generation "too easy," then how about time released seed plops?

    I.e.: feed a whole stack to a piggie—then it produces seed plops at a rate of once a minute (for example) until the stack's worth of items is *processed.*

    This would be, I think, a good compromise mechanic.

  • +1 It's not "too easy" it's common sense. Growing crops is a HUGE pain in the ass - herbs you can just shuck!

  • OMGiants, I just saw the update!  *_*  Ohhhh, I love you, thank you so much!  *squee*

    *Tentative smile* Uh, does this apply to batterflys, too, or just the piggies.  I'll take what I can get, and it was happening the most with piggies, so thank you, thank you! *genuflects obediently, hoping she is not pushing her luck*
