I've got two things...
First, i saw there's a 2.2 version out on Patreon.
Second, how hard would it be to make a mod to let the monsters plant seeds? Doesn't have to be fancy, just something where they look in the storage for the first "legal" seed to plant, then plant it in the same fashion that they do other farm work.
But if it were to be fancy, I was thinking something along the lines of the Silo, where you set what seeds and in what order.
ps: Also, back when this game was with a different team, i could have sworn there were more monsters in game, something like feral versions of what's there now. Is that still a planned thing, or did that get removed completely?
