Skills (PoOT)

As the player progresses through the game, certain events or interactions will unlock one or more of the 12 available skills in the Notebook menu, indicated by a notification appearing in the corner of the screen. Skills represent the player's mastery of the jobs they may undertake while pioneering or operating the farm. 
===Leveling up===
Performing certain activities associated with a skill will allow the player to level up, which is tracked in the Notebook. Leveling up skills will unlock new crafting recipes and traits such as improved yields, product quality, reduced energy costs, or other associated boosts. Once unlocked, players can view the "Obtainable Traits" and "Obtainable Recipes" associated with that level by navigating to the "Notebook → Skills" and selecting the desired skill.

Use the sickle to cut wild grasses, Cutting grass will also yield usable grass materials.
Provides a boost to material gained per grass harvested, reduces energy cost per swing, and unlocks crafting recipes for basic craft materials, textiles, and decorations. It is worth noting that moving through a tile containing wild grasses will significantly lower movement speed unless riding a horse or motorcycle, and should be cleared from pathways frequented often.
===Notes===
* Wild grasses will gradually replenish automatically daily.
* Each Farm Area has only its own form of wild grass, while Farm Area 3 contains three unique varieties mirroring the same distribution for logs.
==Mining (採掘)==
Use the hammer to break rocks. Mining rocks will also yield ores and jewels.

It also unlocks the sprinkler, enabling converting iron and silver bars into passive time and energy preservation of fieldwork by watering crops every morning at 6am in a 3x3 area centered on the sprinkler, enabling the player to manage a much higher number of crops than they would be able to maintain using the watering can alone.
