I love this! However I have a question, I chose to make my starting plot into a farm, and looking at the rules it doesn't seem to say how many crops can be grown at once per farm. Is it only one crop, as in one turnip, not several, because if so, that seems like a rather small farm, I also doubt you meant as many crops as I can afford, given that you have rules for how many items a room can hold for example. Then again 30gp and then 150gp sounds like a lot for one turnip, so I'm now guessing buying and planting several instances of one type of crop is implied, that would make sense. Also, how many trivial objects can be made with enough material for a minor object? Other than this I adore this game and what you can do with it! My questions are just me trying to play by the rules, though to be fair, I am solo playing this.

Hi! I'm glad you're enjoying it!
On crops; the intent is that when you farm, you plant a field full of one crop type. So it's not just one turnip, it's one field of turnips. You can allow yourself to plant multiple different crops in the same field if you want, but you only progress one of them when you take the Farm activity, so it's not really helpful to have more than one.
On Trivial objects; a Trivial object costs 1/5 as much as a Minor object, so you can build five of them out of enough of a material to make a Minor object.
Thank you! I thought as much, and have been playing that way for the crops, and I should have thought as much for the materials. I also love how hackable it is and tend to gravitate to games of that nature, like for instance, I thought of stairs as a "furniture" type, perhaps a minor object, but basically they have the mechanical purpose of allowing you to build rooms on top of each other! I'm uncertain if that is something you can already do in the vanilla game and stairs are then implied, but I liked the idea of this and it gives you one more thing to make with building materials!
