Do plants grow while I'm in another world? - Yellow Flower Field Under Blue Cloudy Sky during Daytime

I'm playing Terraria 1.2.4.1 for PC and I've got to the point where I just have to scratch the itch of wanting a cool base, and I also want to set up some farms beneath the ground for things like Daybloom and Glowing Mushrooms.

When I've planted the farms, will they continue to grow while I'm playing in another world, or do I have to be putting time into the base-world for things in there to grow?



Best Answer

The world is not actually being simulated while you are not in it, so no time is passing and nothing else will actually happen. Even if you run a dedicated multiplayer server, the simulation stops if there are no players in the world. You can imagine it would be problematic if, for example, the corruption continued to spread while you were not playing the game. The same principle applies to plants. They will not grow when the world is not loaded with a player in it.
