Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
Some (red) cards allow to remove "up to X plants". I understand that usually one would remove maximum number of plants allowed, but in my group of friends, we tend to use the effect more softly, often removing less plants.
I think it would be good to have such option, e.g. player-dependent setting which grants the ability to either select how many plants to discard (similarly as when paying for a card with non-money resources) or to always discard maximum. -

The game was at 83%, I don't know the exact number.

Report history
Plus, in rare instances, it might make sense, even outside a friendly setting, to remove only part of a player's plants, e.g., to secure they are able to place 1 but not 2 forests, where 1 forest makes them 2nd for Landlord, thus robbing a third player, my contester for victory, of 2 points.
You might need to reduce your own plant PRODUCTION if no one else has any to reduce and the card has mandatory production decrease (Birds, Fish, Small Animals, Herbivores, etc.)
I am no sure this bug report is accurate anyway. I recall reading on BGG that one must remove the maximum amount of plants possible, and the wording says "remove up to x plants" was to make sure people understand it is still playable card even if no one has x plants.
Think of it thematically: You can choose to crash the asteroids into a spot that has nobody's plants. But if you do decide the crash the asteroid into someone's field, you don't get to decide how much damage the asteroid does.
