Farming Levels:
Introducing farming levels, the latest metric set to revolutionize gameplay in Gens this upcoming season. Harvest crops within our newly introduced public farms to increase your Farming Level. With each successful level up, players will unlock the ability to place an additional generator on their island. For every 25 levels achieved, players will prestige and gain access to an exclusive new kit and a shiny new prefix. By successfully reaching the max level, players will be eligible to place up to 255 generators on their island!

Community Farms:
Upon entering the server, players will discover a fresh addition to their inventory: the "Farming Hoe." These essential tools are tailor-made for our exciting new community farms. Newcomers can kick off their farming adventure by harvesting wheat at '/warp wheat,' earning 1 experience per harvest. Upon attaining Prestige 1, the carrot farm at '/warp carrot' unlocks, offering increased experience gains. Upon reaching Prestige 2, players gain access to the potato farm, yielding even greater experience rewards! By actively engaging with these communal farming spaces, players can systematically boost their Farming Level, ultimately expanding their capacity to place more generators on their island!

Gem Bank Revamped:
Following extensive feedback received since its introduction last season, the Gem Bank has undergone a complete overhaul. Initially, it operated solely as a deposit-only saving system, limiting players' ability to utilize their daily interest for generator upgrades. However, in this upcoming season, we're excited to unveil a revamped Gem Bank. With a redesigned interest calculation mechanism and the introduction of withdrawal capabilities, players now have the freedom to access their funds whenever they wish!

Auction House & Coinflips:
As Gens continues to evolve as a fresh gamemode, it has been clear that not all plugins existed, some of which have long been staples in our other sub-servers. This season, we're thrilled to unveil significant updates to our Auction House and Coinflip plugins, seamlessly integrating them into Gens Tycoon! Now, players can seamlessly sell their items or take thrilling risks with their gems in their climb to the top!

Miscellaneous Changes
As always with new seasons, it is our primary focus to ensure we deliver enough content, quality of life changes and bug fixes to satisfy our community! Players can expect to see brand new builds alongside a smoother gameplay experience with a handful of our backend plugins being updated with performance improvements. We look forward to seeing everyone this Friday. As always, enjoy!
