Reduce Incidence of Bell Peppers

[turtletechy 37]

Oh my lord, they are so common. No matter where I spawn, regardless of how hot or cold it is, I always seem to find a ton of bell peppers. Given, they don't give a ton of food for each harvested, but it's bizarre how often they spawn. It'd be nice to see a more diverse mix in all climates.

40% of my 20x10 farm is yellow bell peppers. An additional 10% are red bell peppers. 25% is various types of grain. The other 25% is an assortment of squash, beans, onions, tomatoes, ect.

 

If food genertion is completely random, then I do agree that the bell pepper spawn rate might need to be toned down. Nobody could ever need this many bell peppers. Of course, we could just be unlucky, and just so happen to only find these things.

I have a habit of making a ton of worlds. I've found that all of these worlds have an unusually high rate of bell pepper spawning.

I agree, its unbalanced and not believable given the temp

Then don't pick them.

 

I live in southern Alberta (Canada) and  I think the dandelion spawn rate is way too high. Canola is also too common. I think I'll go complain to God about the spawn rates, brb.

But bell peppers would not naturally grow in a cold environment. However, in each cold climate I found, I could find bell peppers. Bell peppers typically can't survive a soil temperature of anything under about 65 degrees Fahrenheit.

Funny. I also live in southern Alberta. The dandelion and canola spawn rates are really high, but they're believably high. If I went hiking and saw as many bell peppers as canola, I'd be concerned.

Keep in mind that the temperature in TFC is in celsius. The minimum growth temperature in TFC for bell peppers (which is the value used to see if they can spawn) is 8, or about 46.4 Fahrenheit.

 

Could you please provide your source stating that the minimum survival temperature is 65F? Everything that I'm finding with a quick google search is saying only freezing will kill them, and that they can survive temperatures as low as 13C and they will still grow, although it will be very slow, and the plant might look a bit sickly.

It states that the soil temperature should be at that level. While day to day fluctuations in air temperature aren't a huge deal, the soil is affected by the ambient temperature, and as such, in colder environments, the soil temperature would be below 65 degrees Fahrenheit. And I understand that the numbers in TFC are in Celsius. The source provided Fahrenheit, so I stated the numbers in Fahrenheit.
