Bushes gotten by /give not growing about simplefarming HOT 4 CLOSED

Bushes don't grow because they don't contain a PlantDefinition component unlike seeds. This shouldn't be a problem since in actual gameplay, players can't actually obtain the bush block 🙂. They can only plant the seeds, which takes care of the growth of the plant. If they do destroy a bush formed by a seed, they'll get back the seed.

Wait people can right? When you break them? Hmhh I think yes.. Let me test that out. You're right! For some reason this indeed is the case (I don't find it logical). Perhaps an idea, making all of the bushes able to grow? :) This may sound stupid, but there might be a way of players getting them, like through loot or servers /giving them?
Thanks for the feedback!

@TimVerhaegen: To explain this further, the data for the growth stages is stored in the seed prefab. When you plant the seed and it grows, this data is transferred from the the current block to the next block. This is how each block in the growth stage knows what to grow into the next. 🙂

When you use the /give command for a bush block, this bush block doesn't contain any data about the growth stages, thus it cannot grow. I'm not sure if there's any point to adding this in since this can't actually happen in a real game and also, adding it in would mean that you would have to copy the growth stages in the seed prefab to each of the bush prefabs, which might be a little tedious.

Alright good to know :) thanks!
