Current Behavior

farmer did not have any fields, I had to break them and replace them in order to assign them. These fields were previously being farmed. This happened I believe when the GUI changed and plantations got fields

Expected Behavior

that the fields would have been automatically recognized as they had been (the plantation continued doing it's thing with no problems)

Reproduction Steps

use the old version of minecolonies before the plantation field update
build a farm and get the farmer some fields,
update minecolonies
check the farm

Logs

I don't know how to get those right now

Anything else?

it's fixed now that I broke and put back down the fields but wanted you to know about it

• Add a thumbs-up to the bug report if you are also affected. This helps the bug report become more visible to the team and doesn't clutter the comments.
• Add a comment if you have any insights or background information that isn't already part of the conversation.

not a big deal but after troubleshooting in discord I was asked to still post a github. Maybe just an announcement that if that happened to break and replace fields. it's not going to affect new colonies moving forward but as people update the "why is my farmer not farming" questions may get annoying.

Unfortunately there is not much I can do to this issue. When tile entities load the colony may or may not exist yet, which means I cannot register the farm field, which was required for migration to properly happen.

If you break the field, it will re-register itself to the colony.

However I added some code that upon opening of the GUI will also attempt to register it again if it does not exist, it still isn't a fix all solution but at least it doesn't require replacing them.

I had built something in the code to fix this, but since I couldn't guarantee fields were being loaded (due to them being tile entities), it didn't always work.

Seeing as this is a one time fault requiring re-placing the fields, do you think this is a big issue?

Losing assignment is not a huge problem, requiring removing and readding is a problem. There should be some UI way to solve that.
