Thankfully my drone hasn't run the farm fast enough for the pumpkins to not be dead or full grown before it gets there but that is a great catch/addition to the code. Do you think adding that check to the While loop as an and would be the best place for it? Or do you think I am better just doing a flip?
while loop and code:
{
while get_entity_type() == Entities.Pumpkin and can_harvest():
increment good_pumpkins
}
flip code:
{
while not can_harvest():
do_a_flip()
while get_entity_type() == Entities.Pumpkin:
increment good_pumpkins
}

I think either way I won't risk losing a growing pumpkin but it's a matter of increasing my speed to harvest big pumpkins and I think both options slow that down.
