Now that more of us are using the farming life skill (huge props to the team that worked on the Academy):

For the love of the little black "Snot Nose" dude, 

Please change the interface in two ways:

1- When in "place" mode, let us double-tap ESC to close the planting/place interface.  Or a single ESC tap, anything that allows us to quickly get out of plant mode without a secondary confirmation.  This is not a critical game moment and having to confirm I want to leave that interface/mode should not need a secondary key-stroke.

2- Please change the UI to make us press an Fx key to enter place/plant mode.  Normally we just want to prune/kill pests/harvest and having the UI take us to 'place/plant' mode is really annoying.

And since I am asking --

Fishing...

Please make the "Do not get on other players boats" a sticky setting.  The quality of fish to keep is sticky, so please let us sticky this setting. I know it has been repeatedly asked for for years.

Fishing enhancement: instead of just discarding fish, have a checkmark to start discarding lowest quality fish when our inventory fills up.

Thank you for your consideration-
