Your planting systems are very good if you only have one lot. Can you make it a common event so you don't have to have SOOOOOOOO many different switches for each plant?

Even if you make it a common event, you'd still need something to check PER plant/plot... be it switches, variables, self-switches

Awesome!! What about adding a relationship system as well? I mean it's fairly simple to do, but not many people know how to do it, and is quite needed for a Harvest Moon-esque type game :) Here's a tutorial on a simple one.

actually I found a good plant system tutorial. All you need is to make one event per type of plant and then copy it to all your other plots. The only problem is that you can only plant one type of seed in certain plots. I can still live with that to, all I needed was a sign that tells the player you can only plant carrots here, type of thing.

actually, if you couple that with an event spawn script (that hopefully saves the spawned events) you might be able to make it work for any plant per plot

Now all these tutorials need is a tutorial to make npcs have schedules for there day (so they don't just stay in one spot all day). :)

I love Rune Factory, but if you have a working Harvest Moon game, all you really need to add are:

* Item Crafting (Venka has an excellent script for this)

* Skills which increase with use

* Classic RPG Levels and Spells

* Overarching RPG style plot

For Rune Factory 3: to make your main PC a Golden Wooly, create a Golden Wooly sprite, make a sprite and face-set for the Wooly, and assign said Wooly a different Class with Barehanded traits (Wool-Fu Master). I really enjoyed beating on the bosses as a Golden Wooly. :)

So very few of those, except the crafting, require special scripts within RPG Maker.
