Build a precise Farthest Frontier troubleshooting note

Record the variables that change the correct support route. Your entries stay in this page until you choose to copy the note; they are not uploaded or saved. Never enter passwords, recovery codes, payment details, or another player's personal data.

Suggested next step

Record exact build and the field's displayed fertility/rotation or shelter blocker; verify one reversible change at a time.

Read the field before rewriting the rotation

  1. Select the target field and record its displayed fertility, soil composition, size and current crop rotation.
  2. Check whether workers have cleared rocks/trees and tilled the field; difficult terrain can delay preparation and winter freezing can halt work.
  3. Inspect each crop's fertility/disease/weeds/rocks effects in the current UI before selecting a replacement.
  4. If the field was created with copied settings, reopen the rotation and confirm each year/season entry; the official v1.1.1 note fixed incorrect rotation copy/paste behavior.
  5. Change one factor and compare the next harvest rather than treating one year's yield as a universal crop ranking.

Use patch and discussion sources carefully

The official forum currently lists activity beyond v1.1.1, including a v1.2 preview. A preview is not a released build; do not label an upcoming feature as current. Steam threads are useful for comparing symptoms, not for validating a crop formula.

  1. Record the exact game version/checksum and whether you use mods before asking other players.
  2. Attach a screenshot of the field UI only after removing personal information and private settlement details.
  3. Compare reports only when the map, patch and field state match; verify mechanics against Crate's guide and released patch notes.
  4. Keep a simple year-by-year note of fertility and harvest rather than copying an unverified 'best rotation'.

Before you play

  • I recorded the field's displayed fertility/soil and current rotation.
  • I checked clearing, tilling and worker capacity.
  • I verified copied rotations slot by slot.
  • I recorded exact released build rather than treating a preview as live.
  • I treated Steam posts as unverified player observations.

Frequently asked questions

Is there one best crop rotation for every map?

The official guide describes interacting fertility, crop and maintenance factors; this evidence does not support one universal rotation.

Can I trust a copied field rotation?

Not without checking the actual fields. The v1.1.1 notes fixed an issue where copy/paste could create incorrect rotations.

Does the worksheet inspect my town?

No. It only formats field observations you type.

Sources & revision notes

Editorial revision: November 6, 2026; not a gameplay test date. The reference notes identify source limits and version differences.

  1. Crate Entertainment: Farthest Frontier Farming Guide (Official)

    Developer guide covers field size, placement fertility, soil composition, crop rotations, maintenance and disease. Exact results depend on the map and current UI; no universal rotation is asserted here.

  2. Crate Entertainment: Farthest Frontier v1.1.1 patch notes (Official)

    Official patch note dated May 14, 2026 includes a fix for incorrect crop rotations after copying field settings. The current Steam forum lists later preview/patch activity, so do not present v1.1.1 as the latest build.

  3. Farthest Frontier Steam discussions (Community)

    User-generated topics include current reports and old builds. Use exact version/world settings and separate player observations from developer documentation.
