I fully acknowledge that the game's code is complex. It's been around for years and has had a lot of changes and new features, after all.
However, I expect that the dev team actually working on the game would have a bit more edge over modders who change the game after the fact, however skilled those modders may be.
I'm no Android developer, and I don't know how faithful the code that you get from the APKs is to the original ones from EA, but I assume that the code from the APKs have been obfuscated somewhat which gives the original devs a bit more leverage on implementing this suggested feature because their version of the code is probably more organized and clearer to read. Plus they should be more familiar with the code given how long they've been working on it.
In any case, I'll leave it to other players to voice their opinion on this suggested feature as well as the dev team if they ever do see this.
It would be a darn shame if this doesn't get implemented though. It's going to raise the enjoyment factor by a mile for a lot of players.
>A level lock. Prevents you from accidentally upgrading the plant you didn't want to.
I've always wanted this feature too! It was bad enough that you could accidentally upgrade your Plants in the Almanac, but there's also an Upgrade button while choosing Plants for a level! 😞
I think the idea is great but unfortunately it needs $$$ to motivate our EA dev team to start this kind of work on a very old game.
Maybe suggesting to them to add a plant level select option button as a premium feature (alone with the forced ads removal) which players can purchase?
@FloatingSunfish Are you the person I have answered earlier on subreddit?

The way I see it, if they added a new non-Premium Plant (Tumbleweed) for the sake of it, then adding this as a non-premium feature would be an even more welcome move by the community as a whole.
It doesn't give players who have it an unfair advantage, and it's also something that players have been wanting for years now.
Adding it as a Premium feature would most likely rub players the wrong way because it will be seen as a blatant cash grab instead of a good-natured company that cares about its customers fixing an issue that's been a problem for its players for years now.

Indeed, I was! 🙌
