RPG Maker MZ Plugin: CT Farming System — Crops, Harvesting & Farm Progression

CT Farming System — Crop Planting, Watering & Harvesting System for RPG Maker MZ

Bring proper farming gameplay to your RPG Maker MZ game with a flexible, event-driven crop system.

Plant crops, wait for them to grow, optionally water them halfway through, check their live status, then harvest the result. No scripting required.

Built for cozy farming games, town-life RPGs, survival systems, crafting loops, and resource-management gameplay.

🌱 Main Features

✔ Up to 20 Crop Recipes per Farming Event

Each crop can have its own:

• Crop name
• Seed item
• Required seed amount
• No-seed message
• Grow time
• Harvest item
• Harvest amount
• Optional watering requirement
• Time until watering is needed
• Final grow time after watering
• Timer and crop-name text color
• Text outline color
• Outline thickness
• Timer height offset

✔ Optional Watering System 💧

Choose whether each crop needs watering.

For watered crops:

• Plant the crop
• Wait until it needs water
• Interact with the crop
• Water it
• Wait for final growth
• Harvest it

Each crop can use different watering timings.

✔ Real-Time or Active-Play Crop Growth

Choose how crops grow:

• Real-world time: crops continue while the game is closed
• Active-play only: crops progress only while the game is running

✔ Floating Grow Timers

Growing crops can display animated floating countdown timers above the event.

Timers automatically format long durations clearly:

• 45s
• 12m 34s
• 2h 26m
• 1d 20h

You can hide floating timers without stopping crop growth or crop-status functionality.

✔ Live Crop Status Window

Let players inspect a growing crop with a live status window showing crop information, timing, seed details, and watering requirements.

✔ Three Planting Menu Styles

Choose the style that fits your game:

• Default Window — classic RPG Maker choice list
• Modern Circular — responsive radial crop selector
• Modern Card — polished crop-card grid

Modern menus support responsive layouts, paging, crop icons, hover details, unavailable-crop dimming, glow effects, and cleaner interaction feedback.

✔ Crop Text Styling 🎨

Customize every crop’s visual identity with:

• Crop Timer & Planting Name Text Color
• Outline Color
• Outline Thickness
• Optional gradient text effect

These styles apply consistently to:

• Floating grow timers
• Default planting menu crop names
• Modern Circular crop names
• Modern Card crop names
• Crop Status crop names

✔ Expanded Color Palette

Includes:

• White
• Black
• Red
• Green
• Blue
• Yellow
• Cyan
• Magenta
• Orange
• Pink
• Purple
• Brown
• Light Brown
• Grey
• Light Grey
• Dark Green
• Sky Blue
• Light Purple

✔ Multi-Farm Support

Run as many farming plots as your game needs. Each event stores its own crop, timer, watering state, harvest data, and styling.

✔ Event-Driven Setup

No complex scripting needed. Build farming plots with normal RPG Maker event pages and self switches.

🎮 How It Works

• Player interacts with a soil event
• A crop selection menu opens
• Player selects a crop
• Required seeds are consumed
• Crop begins growing
• Optional floating timer displays progress
• Watered crops pause at the watering stage
• Crop becomes ready to harvest
• Auto Harvest gives the configured item reward

Clean, flexible, and built for proper farming loops.
