Greenhouse shortcut like Knight Bus

I am currently in a quarantine lockdown and cannot move from my house. I can't use the new Field charm for greenhouses nor can I harvest or plant anything. This not only hinders my playing but renders my seeds and water capacity useless as I've hardly ever planted anything.

It would be great if a personal greenhouse tab could be added such as the Knight Bus so I could gain access to the greenhouse feature.

    Or at least expand the distance from which you can reach inn/greenhouses etc. like it was implemented in Pokemon Go a while ago...

    Last weekend I had a full crop of toadstools due for harvest at 9pm. Unfortunately earlier that day our state government implemented an 8pm curfew. RIP toadstools.

    Expand the distance is really great idea.


    I also want to join wayfarer from HPWU, with voting system about type of facility.


    There are 3 fortress around of my house, and nearest greenhouse is about 1km ahead…


    Lv 50 can post & vote photo of the spot.

    Lv55 can vote type of facility.

    Lv60 can request new wayspot & judge on wayfarer.

    Waypoints are determined to be Inns, Greenhouses, or Fortresses based on algorithms. There is no voting for what type they will be. The photo for spots are submitted at the time of the new waypoint. You don't request a new waypoint, you suggest a new waypoint through submission of a valid POI, including image, title, description, and supporting info.

    The biggest issue right now is not letting you submit through HPWU, but to fix the issue of new waypoints not being populated to HPWU for the past 5 months!

    Are you sure they are not being updated? I can see all waypoint from Ingress in HPWU (in my area).


    And yes the type is determined by certain algorithm... I think that world divided into quadrants, and each of this quadrant there can be certain amount of waypoints of certain type.


    Usually they would become instantiated within 2 days, after they are added in either Pokemon or Ingress.

    @sakiyuishiro Sorry didn't see your picture... But your situation looks really weird. Try reporting it with picture maybe they will take a look and reasign some waypoints... There should be only 1 fortress in 1 quadrant... Only explanation would be that you live at intersection of 4 quadrants, and if this quadrants don't have any other waypoints they had no choice but tag them that way... Or maybe error in algorithm for assignment... It happens to the best of us...

    @AndyRozman

    Sorry, I'm not very familiar with niantic's algorithm…But maybe It’s only unlucky.


    I’m live nearby intersection of Lv 17 of S2 cells.

    And there’s only one wayspot each cell.


    All wayspot appear as fortress in HPWU.

    In Pokémon go, these are one gym & two pokestop…

    Yes, I also wish the Knight Bus could take you to the Three Broomsticks or the Herbology Greenhouses. Or, Diagon Alley could have the Leaky Cauldron and a community greenhouse. Any way for those in quarantine, or just living in a remote area, to be able to play the game without driving somewhere. Not everyone has greenhouses and inns within walking distance.
