Kurumi Tree (walnut)
I have redone the entire tree with the help of AI on the scripting. It has a new look, realistic timing, new objects and best of all... things to collect at different times. Here here is the info.

🌰...Kurumi Tree (walnut)
I have redone the entire tree with the help of AI on the scripting. It has a new look, realistic timing, new objects and best of all... things to collect at different times. Here here is the info.

Kurumi Tree (SF Kurumi)
VivoSim Japanese Expansion

🌰 Primary Use
SF Kurumi (Walnuts) are harvested once per growth cycle and may be used in:

Savory dishes, Sweets and desserts, Sauces and pastes, Traditional medicines (such as Kurumi Aburagusuri for pain relief) & Offerings and gifts to Temples

🌿 Natural By-Products
As the tree grows, it also produces secondary materials that reflect real orchard behavior: SF Ha – Leaves, SF Shijo – Twigs, SF Eda – Branches, SF Ki – Wood, SF Maki – Firewood

🌳 Design Philosophy
The Kurumi Tree is a dual-output orchard tree, not a timber source, but does deliver wood from time to time

⏳ Growth & Care
Growth occurs over a multi-day seasonal cycle
Water is required throughout the cycle
Neglecting water will pause progress
This tree is designed to be checked periodically, not constantly
Automation options may be enabled at the owner’s discretion, but manual care is encouraged for immersion.


🧩 Japanese Ingredient Set
To support Japanese recipes and naming conventions, the following replacements are used: SF Kurumi → Walnuts

All names align with Japanese-themed recipes and future expansion content.

🛠️ Technical Notes (for Advanced Users)
This tree includes internal configuration and scripting changes to support Japanese ingredients and orchard behavior. These changes are already applied and require no modification for normal use.

honestly, i just didn't think about the drier when i was researching lol

As you may know im working on a Japanese expansion that based on historically accurate information. Part of this is cutting grains like barley into a sheave and then drying it for use. The Hoshi-goya is the dryer that i have made and I have decided to use the Oast house script for it to work.  I've created the recipes to be used, have the items and products to be dried and rezzed after the drying time ends.  The HG needs to show the sheaves drying.  So my question is, as a non-scripter, how do i accomplish that?

The sheaves need to be on the inside rails, hanging when in use.   gyazo.com/167749122f15f3c2fd01af9182bcf632
Then they need to be invisible when not in use.

Drying racks were used to dry sheaves (bundles) of grains and other crops that needed to be dried for storage. The sheaves where hung so that...

any luck with the updating?

I've heard about this with other players but have not seen any way to fix this. I just have 4 hogs, currently but don't have any issues with them.

There has been talk about updating the scripts, but i haven't really seen any work towards that currently. You may want to consider reducing your animals until there are some answers.
