## 🌿 PERENNIAL CROPS (Special Rules)
|
|
|
|
**Examples:** Strawberries, asparagus, fruit trees
|
|
|
|
**Multiple Harvests:**
|
|
- Stage 1-4: Initial growth (once)
|
|
- Stage 5-8: Repeat every season (perennial cycle)
|
|
- Winter dormancy stage (leafless/minimal)
|
|
- Spring regrowth (from stage 5, not stage 1)
|
|
|
|
**Visual Difference:**
|
|
- Woody stems remain in winter
|
|
- Leaves fall but structure stays
|
|
- Spring: New leaves on old structure
|
|

## 🚀 GENERATION WORKFLOW
|
|
|
|
**For ANY new crop:**
|
|
|
|
1. **Check References:**
|
|
- View `/references/crops/cannabis_stage_*.png`
|
|
- View `/references/crops/mushroom_stage_*.png`
|
|
- Review COLOR_MASTER.md for exact colors
|
|
|
|
2. **Plan 8 Stages:**
|
|
- Sketch out progression (seed → harvest)
|
|
- Define color changes per stage
|
|
- Plan size increase per stage
|
|
|
|
3. **Generate Stage 1:**
|
|
- Include "EXACT Style 32 matching /references/crops/"
|
|
- Include "Smooth lines, NOT pixel art"
|
|
- Include "5px black outlines #000000"
|
|
- Include exact hex colors
|
|
|
|
4. **Verify Match:**
|
|
- Compare to cannabis/mushroom references
|
|
- Check outline thickness (5px)
|
|
- Check smoothness (no pixelation)
|
|
- If mismatch → Auto-reroll
|
|
|
|
5. **Generate Remaining Stages:**
|
|
- Maintain consistency across all 8 stages
|
|
- Same outline thickness
|
|
- Same color palette
|
|
- Progressive size increase
|
|
|
|
6. **Save & Organize:**
|
|
- `assets/sprites/crops/[crop_name]_stage_[1-8].png`
|
|
- Update manifest
|
|
- Document in crop registry
|
|
