Does anybody know what the dotted lines are actually for?

Also, a question about moving things around on your farm: if I plant a banana tree and then move the plot of land it's on, will it still be growing on that plot?

If you move a plot with anything growing on it yes the crop stays on the plot and will keep growing normally when you put it down somewhere else. Unless you put the plot in your bag, then anything on it will be destroyed.

The fact that my quail is the same colour as my coop floor really bothers me because every time I walk into the coop I'm like "woah where did it go" and it turns out it was just honing its inner chameleon.

It's kind of weird how this game alludes to all of the waitresses having creepy/perverted customers >_> Like Iluka mentions it if you talk to her but then Komari and Siluka's light blue heart events both mention it as well. Just an odd recurrence in towns that are otherwise free of issues.

Be careful where you step?

When you have faceless NPCs you can make them as awful as you want without the consequences you'd have if you made, say, marriage candidates or even faced villagers creepy perverts

Yeah it's pretty convenient. It's be more interesting if there was a named villager involved but I'm pretty sure Marv isn't gonna move in that direction any time soon.

So much yes....
I really hope that the 'alternate style coops' have a different coloured floor. Having a non-chameleon quail is a very high priority for me if so haha.

Oh yeah it'll tell you to stop

It sucks when your watering can runs out of water when the soil is really dark, but you're not quite sure if it finished watering or not, so you have to run back to the field anyway OTL

I've never had the watering can run out of water partway through a field. If you water each field completely, there's always enough for an even number of fields. Unless this changes with a capacity upgrade?

Didn't upgrade tool yet so I don't know.

I had the issue without any tool upgrades (I just upgraded at the end of my last play session, though). I had an odd amount of fields growing, and not very many, so maybe that's why?
That's weird that it's never happened for some folks, though. It was a pretty constant occurrence for me.

I've had my can run out halfway in a field watering with the first upgrade for water amount. ((I can't think of what that's officially called right now because I have the worst tome with names and specific words I need at the time sometimes...Capacity I think?))

When you upgrade your watering can enough, you eventually get the option to be able to water more than one plot at a time (up to a 5x5 area) and it can be kind of hard to tell exactly which plots you're gonna water when the area gets that big. so the dotted lines essentially are to show you "ok, this is where you're gonna use this tool" before you waste your water

Found Cher's guide on tools. http://fogu.com/sos2/basics/tools.html

Ah, okay! Thank you.
