The Heat Is On!
The DEA heard about some farmers playing fast and loose with the law! This week's update brings new elements of play when getting in trouble.
Heat has been reworked, now your farm's Heat score represents your chance of getting caught. Continue to push your legal limits for fun and profit but be aware - if you get busted, the DEA will seize plants.
Inspections are new random event. Should authorities decide to inspect your farm, police and dogs will be dispatched. During inspections, you'll automatically be caught for any wrongdoing - so color inside the lines while the police are around.
