Do you think animal tracks will return?

[Jake]

I think it will return, but perhaps you can re-grow it quicker by buying grass seeds

Maybe not the seeds, but regrowing quicker does sound good

There better be an outdoor sprinklers that water flowers and grass!

I agree with Bidoof. If there were a way to just automatically water everything, you wouldn't need a watering can. Even if it was just for an area and you could only have one. Seems lazy, to me. I'd rather it stick to having you do actual work instead of finding ways to make it easier, that is what makes AC fun for me, going out of my way to do things.

I'd sure like it for the grass, I don't feel like using a watering can on the grass lol but I wouldn't like it to water flowers. Lets say you place it near flowers....the grass would start to regrow but it won't water the flowers, that's what you are for.

Perhaps even they would just slow the wear and tear and up the regrowth speed, that would be the best idea.

Yes, I think slowing the wear and speeding the regrowth would be the best answer too. I also think seeds could be purchased, maybe like the medicine is, you only get one a day.

How about a option to choose how fast/slow grass wear and regrowth is, also an option to get rid of it all together.

I was thinking while I watered my flowers on ACCF that they could do it like in real life...more growth would happen on days when it rained. Of course, I would prefer that it only take a couple of days for it to grow back to begin with. I have a few spots on ACCF that are coming along nicely, I just wish it would come along faster.

 

[Prof Gallows]

I like the idea of having grass wear down slower. Options.. maybe.
But speeding up growth for flowers on rainy days, yes for sure. I'd love that.

That happens in City Folk. It helped me a lot in the rainy season especially.

I think the best way to make everyone happy is, simply make it an option at the startup menu, that way when you get your town the way you want it you can set it to 'off' and not have to worry about where you run. I think this would really work out great.

Thats a great idea! I think most people would be happy with this option.

I dunno. Having options would be nice but it wouldn't be AC. I'm iffy about it.
It's a great feature in the game, or else the team wouldn't have kept it. The fact that the grass wears down so quickly is the biggest problem.

I think your probably right. Now that I am finally getting my CF grass growing back, I can see the advantages of it. I just wish the grass would grow back faster...I don't time travel.

 

[Ti4558]

Maybe If you set a pattern on the ground then that would be the only place where the grass would deteriorate.

 

[jebug29]

I hope not. It never bothered me, but I hated going to people's towns and they would tell you not to run.

 

[Beninjam10]

Animal tracks was a great idea, but executed poorly in city folk. I seem to remember something about each patch being worn down only once when you opened up the game, and then being able to get worn down again if you reloaded the game. if they got rid of that, meaning grass can only be worn down once per day, and by doing what everyone is saying by increasing the rate of growth or how fast it wears down, then maybe it could be a pretty awesome feature.

Maybe they could have heavy snowfall or something in winter that completely covers up all dirt regardless, with the snow that falls on any solid animal tracks wearing down faster than snow that falls on existing snow. I don't know

 

[Volvagia]

I hope not.

 

[SamXX]

Hopefully, imo.

 

[Static]

Yes because id rather have natrual path wheres theres dirt (the path) and then grass (areas for trees, flowers, etc) instead of having stupid pattherns...
