It's funny how many ideas we can come up with to "improve" on a pretty perfect game to start with, but I have some myself.

1. My first and biggest is the length of time (24 hours) it takes new seeds to appear in the supply room. If you (by this I guess I mean butterfingers me!) accidentally trash your last plant (no seed left) or sell it, etc., it's hard enough to keep shelling out the bucks to hopefully play the seed lottery and get another (but part of the game and necessary fun), but I'm trying to play methodically and not get off on tangents, so waiting 24 hours to even TRY for that seed is a bit excessive, maybe? So, if we have the bucks, can we spend 'em quicker than once every 24 hours?

2. No seeds that look alike. This just drives me crazy, especially when it's a cross that you haven't planted yet to see what the final plant is. If they have to look alike, then they should be "labeled" - all seeds have names.

3. Selling in the nursery to continue in the background, please.

4. A button that will allow you to change options without messing up where you were in the nursery would help immensely - or being able to go to the menu and come back with things as they were when you left.

5. Expanded breeding history (as in FT) would be ducky!

6. Seed pull-down that shows names of plants, not just pix.

Now, this isn't hurrying my game along, and certainly isn't using cheats, but it is closer to how I'd run a "real" nursery. Anything to allow organization - I'm all for!

Looking forward to PT2 for Windows and I've only found 2 MPs yet! lol

I seen 2 suggestions that I have thought of also. I would really like a magnifing glass so I can quit butchering my poor plants. lol. They look like they went through a paper shredder and also, I have had trouble selling on plant come to find out that I didnt prune away a dead leaf.
The other suggestion is an easier way to move the seeds. Like maybe when clicked, have a little question box asking how many to move and where to move them too. Just something to make the job of moving seeds easier. Other than that PERFECT game. I got it the day it came out. I LOVEEEEEEEEE it.

Quick addition to the above that backs up what I was saying about no seeds looking alike... Because I know they can look alike and be different plants in this game, I just spent $2000 on a seed that looked like another seed I had, hoping it would be different. It wasn't. Now, if a seed store or nursery tried to sell me a seed for $2000, they'd better be able to identify it and guarantee it! lol Please, no seeds that look identical.

it would be too easy if none looked alike!

i don;t mind that they loko slike, because at least the appearance tells you wich species of plant you are getting, and which tier its on!

Wouldn't be easy for me! lol And I'm serious, if I were to contemplate spending $2,000 on a single seed, I sure as heck would be positive what I was getting before I shelled out the bucks! lol To me, that's not easy, it's business, it's practical, and it's reasonable! lol

part of business is taking chances!

if you wait until you know something absolutely for sure, the opportunity may pass you by!

Yeah, but part of having $2000 is being smart enough to make it, keep it, and not waste it! lol

Everyone has their opinion, though, eyes, and I respect yours, too! I don't care if the shapes stay the same, just colors being different would help, names would help, etc. - at least, they'd help me, and maybe some of us need more help than others! lol

true

but if you want that 2,000 to become 20,000 or even 200,000 you ahve to be willing to take risks

Didn't say I wouldn't buy one again, just said I wouldn't like it!
