Ancient Fruit vs Starfruit - Which Is More Profitable?

TL;DR

• If you want set-and-forget long-term value, Ancient Fruit is usually the better baseline.
• If you can replant and optimize bursts, Starfruit often wins on peak profit per harvest (especially with kegs).
• Do not guess. Use the calculator with your season, days left, and Artisan to compare instantly.

• 追求省心长期：多数情况下古代果实更适合无脑滚雪球。
• 追求爆发收益：能频繁补种/有产线时，杨桃常常在单次收益上更强（尤其走酒桶）。
• 别靠感觉：用计算器按你剩余天数/职业/产线直接对比。

Why the winner changes

1. Replanting cost and effort: Ancient Fruit keeps producing; Starfruit needs replanting each cycle.
2. Processing bottlenecks: keg time and number of kegs can flip the winner.
3. Season and time horizon: with fewer days left, shorter ROI can matter more than max profit.

1. 补种成本与操作：古代果实连续产出；杨桃每轮要补种。
2. 加工瓶颈：酒桶耗时/酒桶数量足不足，会直接改变结论。
3. 时间窗口：剩余天数少时，回本快可能比单次最高更重要。
