When you till farmland directly over ground objects in your Aniimo Homeland, the game removes their physical models and routes the displaced items into your base storage, furniture inventory, or temporary overflow cache. However, automated tilling discards manual gathering bonuses and permanently overwrites native rare flora spawn points. Check your base inventories immediately to reclaim displaced items, and pre-clear target plots by hand before laying down future agricultural grids.

Where Displaced Resources Go

Placing farm plots over loose loot, Ani-pots, or standing vegetation triggers an automated clearing system. If your personal inventory or local storage containers are full when placing plots, the game sends unassigned materials to recovery buffers.

How to Prevent Permanent Resource and Node Loss

Automated clearing provides only baseline materials, discarding rare side drops, seeds, and gathering tool bonuses. Furthermore, placing tilled soil directly over rare wild flora replaces the underlying spawn anchor with crop soil, permanently disabling natural regeneration for that node.

Follow these steps before expanding your farming grid:

  1. Clear your inventory: Empty your carry bag and base depot slots so any displaced items have immediate space to land.
  2. Harvest rare flora manually: Pick all flowering plants, rank-up reagents, and unique growth catalysts with gathering tools or creature abilities to secure bonus yields.
  3. Chop trees and clear Ani-pots: Break all placed or wild Ani-pots by hand and fell mature trees inside the planned boundary before entering build mode.
  4. Inspect the ground footprint: Ensure the soil patch is completely barren before snapping farm grids into place.
  5. Revert accidental overlaps immediately: If you accidentally place a farm plot over a rare flora spawn, remove the plot right away to let the native node regeneration script restore the anchor.

Optimal Farm Zone Placement

To preserve natural resources permanently, separate your active farming rows from static gathering points:

  • Build on flat, empty terrain: Confine large-scale crop rows to barren sections of your Homeland that lack native spawns.
  • Maintain buffer zones: Leave clear space between wild flora clusters and automated agricultural operations.
  • Keep storage adjacent: Place material depots and storage chests next to tilled plots to ensure automated hoppers and working creatures do not hit storage caps.
