Notes on how items in /home streets function post-R2

Please post here any notes on what you have tested --yourself-- about how items (machines, sticks, resources, gifts, feeders, collectors, icons) work since R2. 

Can you use it on someone else's street?
Can you pick it up?
Can you collect from it?
Deposit/tithe to it?

Thanks, all!

  • Sticks, stills, machines, icons can't be picked up. You can use them though.
    Feeders and milkers can be picked up and used.
    Also, crops/herbs can't be picked.

  • On home streets, crop and herb plots cannot be used by anyone other than the owner. No actions appear available when trying to click on the plots. Tested this with someone who was initially not a friend, then added them to the friend list (and vice versa), but it had no effect.

  • Plots have got smaller! It's a little odd . . .

  • According to Bees, front yard plots are SUPPOSED to be pickable by anyone. So maybe the fact that they are not now is a bug that will be "fixed."

  • Also after experimenting with ChooJeremy and jeffBIGGIE we've come to this confusion...
    I place a feeder
    Choo picks it up.
    He places it again
    I now can't pick it up
    He picks it up again and gives it to me
    I place it
    He can't pick it up.
    When tried with Jeff the same thing occurred but after the last time of me placing it Jeff could pick it up that time. Lol. Sound like a bug? Regardless a bug report was posted. Interesting...

  • Have you waited sufficiently long for the usual item lock to disappear?

  • Can keyholders access plots within homes?

  • BrieSuz18, are you standing far enough away from the item to be considered "abandoned" before someone else can pick it up?

  • @WalruZ: Yes, just tried and I can water, pet and harvest in my daughter's back yard

  • Yes, Hawkwell, multiple staff have stated home street gardens should be commonly accessible.  That they are not is a bug.  (Why the scare quotes on fixed?  You have a place to put plenty of private garden; that place is not your home street.)

  • My question is 'are others allowed to poison the trees I plant on my street?'
    I know others can plant in my patch.

  • I think nothing changed compared to R1 regarding home streets and what others are able/allowed to do there (except for the bug with plots now)
