How To Setup Fields For Automation
-
[]Set current crop as Fallow
[]Enable crop rotation
[]Set both 2nd and 3rd year crop as the same crop that you want planted
[]Any fields that don't have 2nd/3rd year crops set are fully ignored by the mod
[]The mod will automatically set the fields to be plowed, harvested and fallow as needed. Crop rotation is automatically turned off by the mod (but the game keeps the "hidden" 2nd and 3rd year values to use for its logic)

A gameplay mod for Going Medieval that automates crop rotation for summer and winter crops, with an optional all-year orchard harvest component. Designed for players who want to streamline farm management without manual field rotation. Endorsed by 38 users, last updated March 2026.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Automates crop rotation completely — summer crops rotate every year, winter crops every two years, so you never have to fiddle with field settings again.
- Optional all-year orchard harvest keeps food production steady, which is a huge time-saver in long colony runs.
- Small but trusted: 38 endorsements and over 5,800 downloads, updated March 2026 for versions 0.8.061 and 0.8.065.
⚠️ Cons
- Author didn't include any install instructions or load order guidance in the description.
- Only confirmed for game versions 0.8.061 and 0.8.065 — if you're on a different patch, it may not work.
- Year-round orchard harvest can remove the seasonal scarcity challenge, making food management less interesting.
For Going Medieval players tired of manually rescheduling crop rotation every season. If you want a hands-off farm setup and steady orchard production, this is a solid quality-of-life mod. Skip if you enjoy seasonal planning or want new crop types — this only automates what's already there.
💡 Beginner Tips
- In Going Medieval, mods go in the StreamingAssets/Mods folder — extract the mod folder there, not in the main game directory.
- Match your game version to 0.8.061 or 0.8.065 before enabling, otherwise the rotation automation may not trigger correctly.
- If the download includes a separate file for the all-year orchard component, only add that file if you want orchards producing year-round; skip it for seasonal balance.
