Personal Favorites [v0.542]
What I think is the biggest bang for the buck. Or just the nicest.
Chicken Coop
Big Coop&Medium Coop
Medium Coop lets you keep the chickens inside while you clean, Big Coop has the egg drawer. I don’t know why the Premium and Expensive coops have neither of these.
UPDATE: apparently the chickens can’t escape from the small door in the Expensive Coop which is handy for collecting eggs but cleaning is still a pain.
Note: don’t bother with the small troughs until you get a granary or windmill.
Farmhouse
PH-2 is just the most basic and boring one. Skip it.
PH-4 is my favorite so far. It’s decorated nicely and has the countertop space for your tools, without being too extra like the 6 is. Only annoyance is that the door to the meat&cheese closet hides the second salami rack.
PH-6 has a bigger kitchen and quick access to the meat&cheese closet, but aesthetically I just do not vibe. It’s kinda fancy. More for the ranchers who wear a suit or slacks and not a rancher who wears jeans and a hawaiian shirt.
Retro Farmhouse is…. pretty dang nice. Expensive, but… nice. Only complaint is that the overhead cabinets make placing the manual meat grinder a pain.
Equipment Upgrades
The Luxury Table Saw, Electric Meat Grinder, and Electric Sausage Stuffer are alright. the second two are handy for when you have coolers full of meat and want to process it quick. I was surprised they didn’t need gasoline. None are things I would recommend saving up for, but if you got the cash burning a hole in your pocket go ahead.
Vehicles
Don’t bother with the SUV and Sedan. The small pickup I bought for my first cow, but it handles terribly. The ATV is very fast but only has a little rack. The big pickup handles pretty well. The box truck handles much better than I thought it would. My current setup is the UTV/ATV with a small trailer for harvesting lumber, a pickup for selling/buying stuff in town, and the box truck for hauling animals.
