Please be warned that the player can’t carry the seed container and it will drop to the player’s feet. Double click the box for instructions if needed.

Please Note: If you have teleporters placed you do not have to relink them. If one happens to become unlinked for any reason, you will be notified by the teleporter becoming dark grey.
