Also it is like the 20% you get for working for other you can do the math on it but there is no need you know that you get the 20% and it is added to your storage. Those 20% are easy to spot if you always hire for your harvest or you harvest a crop that you never plant because it is not used in a facility. I think it is the word chance that is causing the confusion and also how other games do their chance stuff. I know there are games out there that say the chance of something happening is this but they are lying to us. FT developers are not like that if it says you have a 52% chance then that is what it will be. It could also be like the fish in water is. If you take note of the amount of fish a lake with boat it has 199 fish in it now divide that number by the number of types of fish in the water you will get about how many of each fish you will get each time you fish that water. So 199/7=28.43 so you get 28 of each type of fish. That said one day you may get 32 salmon the next 28 salmon, the next 25 salmon, so while you should get 28 each time it will very but is around that 28 mark. Now like I said before 1000 fields will get you 1520 boxes but when you do the math one day it might be 520 extra boxes the next it could be 510 the next it could be 530 but it will be very close to the 52% you should get. I think once that really sinks in to some people they will stop hating the belts and love them. I know I do because there are some crops that I use so much of it is hard to keep them in stock even with the spreading pig s*** on my farm.

When the belts came out I did love them still do even if I wasn't going to get a reward each and every time i harvested (as I viewed it), wasn't a fan of how they changed the 3hour to 12 hour on the belt rewards.

I have harvested my flowers and noticed I had a larger amount than had planted, pretty sure not from any reward clicking. As the one I clicked on didn't work when they had the flower reward glitch and may have received the bonus later but it was still more than what the first brown belt bonus was.

Perhaps a sticky is in order (or we can keep quoting jas on each and every post)
