Placement of tree patches & crop plots in 15K cottages

I'm not sure if this affects any other garden layouts but it's certainly an annoyance in my garden...

I have a cherry tree just to the right of my crop plots and the hit box around the tree overlaps with the top right plot in my garden. In order to select the top right plot I need to click on just the bottom left corner of it or else I end up selecting the tree. [Or yes, use my keyboard - I know]

I suspect if I'd put a widely-spreading spice tree there then the issue might have been more severe, or with a narrow bubble tree it wouldn't have been an issue at all.

I wonder if any other house styles are susceptible to the same problems? Could the devs perhaps put a little more space in there between the two?

[And no, this isn't just a thinly-veiled attempt to get a more spacious back garden :-) ]

  • If you select the plot as a whole, you can arrow to the hard-to-reach crop spot.

  • Yep, using the keyboard does get around the problem - but I'd still say it's a problem, just not a roadblock.

    In fact if I'm clearing an entire garden, the keyboard makes it much easier. But if I'm just clearing a couple of plots and using the mouse, it's hard to get to that specific plot. A slightly wider-spaced garden might eliminate the issue.

    I see you've got the same layout house as me... what tree have you got there?
    [I guess once I learn Botany I'll poison that cherry tree & swap it with my bubble tree]
