[sullen coyote]

I give her occasional gifts from time to time but she’s def a mean girl at first

[cyan mica]

At first

Bribed is a strong word

[full kite]

I dont think that's necessarily their point either

[cyan mica]

get to know is a better word

[sullen coyote]

That’s true. I’m nice to everyone I meet unless I have a reason to not to

[cinder carbon]

Alternately, not everyone has the time or desire to hang around with someone who is a meangirl to everyone they meet, hoping to eventually discover the "wonderful" person they are inside

[sullen coyote]

I get the concept of giving gifts to build relationships but that’s not realistic irl lol

[cyan mica]

I didn’t say everyone should have to love her, its just in defense of the "shes mean😭😱😭😱😭😱😭" Argument

[ivory magnet]

Idk, if someone give me a 12 carrot diamond on my birthday I will instantly become their friends

[cinder carbon]

Personally I think someone who's a dick to people they don't know well, but nice to people they do, is actually just a dick, but to each their own

[bitter lintel]

^

[proud pivot]

Yea well, you talked mean about Emily before, so we've been enemies since.

[full kite]

I still maintain that most arguments that are very strongly against one or another NPCs are just dreadfully over-simplified

[sullen coyote]

This is a perfect explanation lol. First impressions are important, and sometimes when you are mean, you don’t care to stick around. I would say that from my experience, i feel more generous if the NPC has a kind dialogue. But I do think it was funny when I gave Shane a loved item and talked to him he was like “go away I don’t want to talk to you” lmao

[cyan mica]

Cause emily is insane

[full kite]

There was a Reddit thread a while back that made the case for Penny being a terrible romance candidate purely because of the one cutscene with George

[ivory magnet]

EMILY IS GOOD WYM

[polar pecan]

Shane is mean at first

[cyan mica]

Several people are typing...

[cyan mica]

She is batshit crazy

[ivory magnet]

She's like the chillest one there is

[full kite]

They played it off as if the forced pushing of his wheelchair made her a terrible, inconsiderate human being

Like bro chill guys

[cyan mica]

bro she has her own dimension in the sky where she meditates

She likes magic rocks

[cinder carbon]

I mean she is because of that, but not purely because of it

[cyan mica]

And she’s a bird girl

[mellow vapor]

Emily’s hearts scenes are so silly and… unique

[ivory magnet]

She's real AF for that

[proud pivot]

It's a dream while sleep.
Rocks ARE magic in this world.
.... and what's wrong with birds?

[mellow vapor]

She’d be an astrology babe irl though but eh

[polar pecan]

Alex is a like a jock, those guys that like sports or something but a crybaby once u get to know him

[proud pivot]

Birds are fun

[ivory magnet]

If Krobus is not available for roomate I would marry Emily

[full kite]

I actually got sucked into that thread and got into this whole discussion with the OP regarding how exactly it was being inconsiderate. They legit believed that you should never hold the door for somebody in a wheelchair unless you ask them first.

I can see their point, but simply don't agree with it

[cinder carbon]

Yes this is actually a thing, it's extremely not ok to push someone in a wheelchair without permission. It's almost the same as picking someone up and moving them lmfao

[bitter lintel]

Emily is the manic pixie

[cyan mica]

it looks like she goes there frequently, it’s still strange to be obsessed, kinda weird ngl

[proud pivot]

I understand the autonomy thing when it comes to moving people in a wheelchair. But that's why one of the options is to tell her it was inconsiderate.

[cinder carbon]

I guess if you don't know or talk to anyone with a disability it makes sense

[cinder carbon]

And that option loses you friendship points with her

[cyan mica]

Why y'all put cheese on my cheeseburger

[proud pivot]

Chastizing for holding a door is crazy though.. People do that almost automatically even for people without disabilities.

[polar pecan]

Emily is kind of on the weird side... I think she said something that it is fate that we met.. idk

[cyan mica]

She looks crazy the second you look at her

[cinder carbon]

Yeah this is an extreme example, and not what happens in the scene

[mellow vapor]

Love her for that

[proud pivot]

When the girl smiles and says Hi to the new person in town

[cyan mica]

We are destined to meet is not Hi

[sullen coyote]

this chat is so entertaining, but all the characters are definitely really interesting

[sullen coyote]

I want a bestie like this

[proud pivot]

This part.

[cinder carbon]

It basically boils down to, would you hold a door for anyone or are you only doing it because of someone's visible disability without talking to them first. But this requires, y'know, some level of socialization so difficult to discuss in a brief text only medium and especially with "gamers"

[full kite]

My primary takeaway from that whole discussion is that it's complicated

[cyan mica]

Im saying that when i looked at her sprite the first time i just thought, she looks crazy. She has blue hair, and a creepy smile to me.

[cinder carbon]

It is and it isn't

[cyan mica]

TO ME

[full kite]

I offered the counterpoint of giving your seat to an elderly individual on a bus. You don't ask their permission first, because that would be drawing attention to the whole thing

[proud pivot]

YOU'RE crazy

[cinder carbon]

It is not complicated to literally not shove people around without permission. If you start arguing weird barely applicable edge cases it gets complicated

[full kite]

Me personally I hold the door for everybody anyway

I'm not even trying to argue that what Penny did in the cutscene wasn't wrong

[proud pivot]

I don't think anyone really disagrees that the action is rude. It's more about the intent/knowledge behind it.

[full kite]

Just that I don't consider it a strike against her character

[cyan mica]

Looks normal to me

[proud pivot]

Finding it rude isn't the issue, Considering Penny to be a horrible person because she made the mistake once is.

[cinder carbon]

Right but that is a social convention and in fact most buses actually have signs directing you to do that and specific seating for elderly, impaired, pregnant, etc

[cyan mica]

Krobus is the best argument over

[proud pivot]

Krobus never danced for me.

[sullen coyote]

The whole discussion about trying to be helpful for those who you assume might need is is controversial. I feel like I’m certain situations, if you help by opening a door or pushing a wheelchair ect is like the most terrible thing you can do. Other times, it’s appreciated

[cinder carbon]

It's a strike against her character that when you point out it was inconsiderate she dislikes you for it

[cyan mica]

Thats the reason you had to take the last ditch effort, also known as emily

[sullen coyote]

Now they’re the creepy one

[cunning silo]

boowomp

[proud pivot]

If the last ditch is the nice girl with a steady job, then the town is suffering.

[full kite]

But of course it does. Are ANY young adults so open to criticism and introspective that they wouldn't feel at least a bit offended when a friend confronts them like that?

IMO a great way for SDV to solve this is for you to get friendship with George for picking that option

That way all the meta-gamers out there have a concrete reason to admonish Penny

[cinder carbon]

You yourself are an example of someone who's open to the discussion and willing to listen. Not assuming you're a young adult but yes I think it reflects poorly on her. My 11 and 6yo niece and nephew are better at taking that kind of criticism

[full kite]

I mean, I'm in my early 30s. When I was Penny's age I was just as insensitive as every other college-age YA

[cunning silo]

i gave up on trying to understand the characters

[cinder carbon]

There are other reasons to dislike Penny anyway, like being a codependent enabler of Pam's addiction, but nobody is ready to hear that

[cyan mica]

yeah but she doesn’t degrade me like haley

[full kite]

Yup. I heavily dislike her dialogue line when married: she worries about Pam still hitting the bar, but says it's no longer her problem

Like, somehow getting married was the tipping point?

[cinder carbon]

It's way before marriage, it's the entire Penny/Pam character arc

[full kite]

That too

[sullen coyote]

Insane. When I first started the game, I thought it was a cute farming game. But it’s not as PG as I thought 😂 it’s a lot deeper when you form those relationships and hear about their life and upbringing. There’s definitely a lot of real life issues that are brought up

[cyan mica]

No comeback to that one

[proud pivot]

I don't kink shame.

[cinder carbon]

Also does Penny have any training in education, how is she qualified to teach those kids? How do we know she's not just filling their heads with creationism and scientology?

She could literally be telling them about midichlorians, we don't know

[cyan mica]

She basically babysits them

Its probably basic shit

[honest wigeon]

how big of a dence do i need around my barn would you say?

[full kite]

If your animals haven't hit max friendship yet, it might be worth it to leave them more grazing room

[proud pivot]

You don't need a fence at all, something about double the size of the building itself looks good imo.

[cinder carbon]

Yeah I find it interesting that CA put not one but two alcoholic characters in the game. And a weird clandestine sexual relationship, war PTSD, etc. Lots of themes. For the record I honestly don't care about the conclusions I just think it's fun to dig into it and stir the pot. Penny stans are especially easy to wind up

[cunning silo]

actually though

[full kite]

I don't know if they're more easy to wind up than others

[cinder carbon]

@honest wigeon you don't need a fence at all. It just helps mainly for petting and keeping them out of your way

[full kite]

I think specifically the white knight folks are

[cinder carbon]

I let my animals all free range

[full kite]

But they're just a small part of that group

[honest wigeon]

k thanks guys. I got one more question do hardwood fences break?

[cinder sorrel]

I think finishing the vault is easier if you're making sacks of money

[proud pivot]

Eventually yes, but it takes years.

[rare niche]

558 - 562 days, to be exact.

[cinder carbon]

Technically that is not exact

[honest wigeon]

how long does wepon upgrading work? he doesnt tell me ever when my tools are done. I just upgradaed my axe to gold and am wondering how long it will take

[rare niche]

Yes it is, it's the exact time frame

[little arrow]

cranberries be making money

[little arrow]

what

[proud pivot]

Tool upgrades take 2 days, and you'll get a notification in the morning when it's done.

[cinder carbon]

It is specific, but not exact

[rare niche]

Instead of saying "years"

[rare niche]

It doesn't matter. Moving on

[cinder carbon]

Like it's literally not exact because it's a range

Everything matters. Nothing matters. Moving on.

[rare niche]

🤨

Sure, I guess

[frank kayak]

so how long dose a tree grow?

[cinder carbon]

What kind?

[frank kayak]

oak

[cinder carbon]

Does not have a specific growth time unless you use tree fertilizer

[rare niche]

Five days with fertilizer ^

[cinder carbon]

There is a % chance every day that it will move to the next stage. So sometimes rng isn't on your side and it stays at one stage for days at a time

[bitter lintel]

then 5 days BAM done

unless mahogany

it likes to be difficult

[cinder carbon]

So yeah as they said if you want it to grow use tree fert and it will force it through each stage every day

[rare niche]

Mahogany trees take 26+12 days if unfertilized

[bitter lintel]

with fert they average 7 days to grow

[rare niche]

7+2

[cinder carbon]

Fert

[sullen coyote]

What fertilizer is best to use for beginners spring year one

So basically what i got from this convo is to use basic sprinklers + use tappers

[bitter lintel]

tree fertilizer is great for tapper farm

[cinder carbon]

Spring y1 don't worry about fert much

If you have extra sap turn it into basic fert and use it

[bitter lintel]

I only ever use that fert and another later game one

[cinder carbon]

You will always have sap when you need it later so dont be afraid to convert it

[bitter lintel]

stacks and stacks of sap

[cinder carbon]

Ideally use it on the crops you need for the quality crop bundle

Sap leaking out of every orifice

[bitter lintel]

I actually burn through stacks and stacks of sap cause I fish so much and only use quality bobbers

[cinder carbon]

That's a very advanced strat

[bitter lintel]

had to tap mahoney trees lol

[cinder carbon]

🫶🫶🫶

On level 69

[calm sandal]

the slapper

[cinder carbon]

Slow, methodical slapping

[sullen coyote]

So just tap the basic trees? Like mahogany pine

[cinder carbon]

Just how I like it

@sullen coyote the three "normal" trees give their own products which have their own uses, mainly in crafting

Pine, maple, oak

[sullen coyote]

Oh yes I just looked that up

[cinder carbon]

Mahogany tappers make sap which isn't so useful

[sullen coyote]

Ohhh

You can easily get sap from the trees itself so yeah I agree

[cinder carbon]

And killing slimes

[sullen coyote]

How do you guys split up fishing/mining/foraging

Also what is the best food for noob (me) for mining

[cinder carbon]

I just do what I want when I feel like it but I'm not a minmaxxer

[sullen coyote]

Oh and how do I switch to the second row for the inventory

I can only see top row unless I do inventory

[sullen coyote]

Gotcha

[proven flare]

I just do whatever im in the mood for

[cinder carbon]

Making field snacks early on is good. Get spring onions down southnof Marnie's. And you will get notified of salmonberry/blackberry seasons when you can stock up on food

[cinder carbon]

What platform?

[proven flare]

Pc

[cinder carbon]

I think [ and ] ?

No, tab

[sullen coyote]

Oh em gee how did you know teehee

[sullen coyote]

Ur the best thx

Omfg I wish I knew these keys beforehand !!

[cinder carbon]

I am not but yw

[rare niche]

self love am I right

[sullen coyote]

self love yesss

[cinder carbon]

More like self loathe

[sullen coyote]

ME BABAHAH

[rare niche]

Well, in your case

[cinder carbon]

Trash people trash people themselves

But I just had a thought

[sullen coyote]

what’s really ironic is that I used to get mad at my ex for choosing his games over me and he was literally the one who bought me sdv and I’m now using it to cope with the break up 💀

[rare niche]

You're calling yourself trash?

[rare niche]

Interesting..

[cinder carbon]

What if instead of fixing the "panning spots spawn out of reach" issue, v1.6 just lets us upgrade the pan with a longer reach

[rare niche]

That's your thought?

[cinder carbon]

Of course

[rare niche]

What does that have to do with the previous conversation 🤨

[proud pivot]

Only if this fix includes a new animation where our farmer just gets super long arms while doing it.

[cinder carbon]

I didn't say it was a particularly deep or important thought, or that it was relevant

[rare niche]

Well, sure, like a thing I can't discuss here

[cinder carbon]

Ayyyyy that sucks but I hope it gets better. Sometimes we need distractions

[proud pivot]

[cinder carbon]

Wait actually I'm not sure you can

[rare niche]

The hell?

[cinder carbon]

It is similarly neither deep nor important though

[deep vessel]

maybe ill go back to the seasoned farmer channel 😶

[rare niche]

good idea

[cinder carbon]

I'm just gonna...

Yep, delete that

[sullen coyote]

Are you okay @cinder carbon

[cinder carbon]

No but yes

Thanks for asking tho

You?

[sullen coyote]

No I’m not. Thanks for asking

Can I add you as a discord friend

[cinder carbon]

Sure but honestly I only use it when I'm playing games

And im sorry to hear that. I hope things get better

[native creek]

hi guys, what is best food to eat in year 2, i have just been eating the mushrooms i get from daily cave and it does so many to fill up my energy or health bar
is there a better food for me to cook

[cinder carbon]

Mushroom is not bad

I tend to make a good amount of root platter around that time, or if you have crab pots, sashimi. I think a lot of people just use cheese

Also algae soup if you're not gonna make a ton of fish ponds

[native creek]

okok

ty

[cobalt hare]

i just proposed abby she said the preparation takes 3 days? what should i do on day 3?

[cinder carbon]

@cobalt hare wear your wildest outfit

[native creek]

^

[deep vessel]

one hundred percent

[native creek]

you just get tped to wedding if i recall correctly tho

[cobalt hare]

today is 25, the marriage should take place on 28 right?

[deep vessel]

yeah, you dont lose any time in the day; wedding happens then life goes on like normal

[cobalt hare]

outfit? duh... wanna see my avatar?

[cinder carbon]

It'll be on the calendar

Mermaid pendant icon on wedding day

I highly recommend buying a calendar for your house

[cobalt hare]

Bro I just got a prismatic Shard from the mines (im on fall year 1) 💀

[native creek]

lucky

[cinder carbon]

MOST unrealistic thing in the game

[native creek]

i am on fall year 2 and i have been trying to get it and i still have not gotten it

[cobalt hare]

it was so unexpected

[cinder carbon]

Niiiiiiice

[sullen coyote]

Nice!!!

[native creek]

i am going to ||first time volcano cuz i heard you can get one on floor 10, I think||

censored it cuz idk if i am supposed to say it here

[cinder carbon]

Nah you're not supposed to at all

[cobalt hare]

is there any tips of how to set up ur farm for organization on standerd farm

my best outfit #images-and-memes lololol its kira yoshikage8

[cobalt hare]

for like where to put barns, sheds, etc

[native creek]

just put it near my houses so its easy to access

[sullen coyote]

What’s the best energy item to bring into mines day 5

[cobalt hare]

fish

thats what i do

[sullen coyote]

Ooh

[cinder carbon]

Or the seaweed/algae/cola you fished up

Or forage

[cobalt hare]

yeah

[bitter lintel]

ah the early game energy struggle

[cinder carbon]

Yeah that early I just do 5 or 10 floors and call it

[cobalt hare]

what i do is when demetrius ask between the fruit bat or mushroom cave i choose mushroom becasue the Common mushrooms can really stack up and gives 40 energy

thats my main food source for year 1

[bitter lintel]

until you get your barn up and that sweet cheese flowing through your veins

[cinder carbon]

It doesn't really matter

[cobalt hare]

should u sell the cheese?

[bitter lintel]

plus food from kicking trash cans lol

sell and eat

[deep vessel]

fifteen if youre lucky

[cinder carbon]

Yes dumpster diving pays off in the valley

[cobalt hare]

im going to build a honey empire for profit

[cobalt hare]

I got 3 garbage hats in year 1

[bitter lintel]

gg ears

[cinder carbon]

Woah

[trim inlet]

I open every garbage can every day and still havent gotten one in winter y3

[cinder carbon]

That is very lucky. Make a garbage hat fishtank

[cobalt hare]

i will 💀

[trim inlet]

Altho i havent always opened them all every day

[cinder carbon]

This is a legit strat, but better post-cc

[bitter lintel]

I love wild honey for passive income and easy to fit around the farm in empty spots, looks good for decoration as well

[cobalt hare]

What flower should i use?

[cinder carbon]

Fairy rose is best

[bitter lintel]

fairy is best money

[cobalt hare]

ok thx

[cinder carbon]

But it's season dependent

Blue jazz, poppy, fairy rose

[bitter lintel]

but I do that later in save and mostly wild early, planting flowers for beehives is kind of annoying, but better money

more reason to get tree farm and tapper farm setup asap

[cobalt hare]

thats what i did

[bitter lintel]

good

[cobalt hare]

I set up a few maple trees to get maple

[cinder carbon]

The only issue with flower honey is making sure you don't pick the flowers

[cobalt hare]

i know the frustration

[bitter lintel]

ya, but you can set it up properly to prevent that. I like to use either a scarecrow or seasonal decor to stop it

[cobalt hare]

How did u send a picture in the chat?

it not letting me

[bitter lintel]

skillz

level 5

[cobalt hare]

oh

[bitter lintel]

just keep talking

[cinder sorrel]

What did the museum guy gave me

It was a book opening

[cobalt hare]

Dwarff Scrolls?

[cinder sorrel]

It's a shitty reward tbh lol

[cinder carbon]

Yeah it's not too hard. Also once you know the diamond pattern you can maximize, but honestly post-cc it's easier just to make rows of them

[bitter lintel]

I use a controller, so some designs it can't reach, so I go with squares

[cobalt hare]

aight see ya

[cinder carbon]

Yeah you have to carve out corners, it's inconvenient

[bitter lintel]

for some stuff, but a controller is so easy to use and easier on the hands sitting in my lap

mouse gives sore wrist soon enough

[cinder carbon]

I prefer controller too, even on pc

For combat 100% better

[bitter lintel]

I only use mouse and keyboard if i have to

ya combat is sweet with controller

[dusky girder]

How do I get a silver quality wine?

[cinder carbon]

You have to upgrade your house until it has a basement

[dusky girder]

Done it

Now what?

[bitter lintel]

wait

[cinder carbon]

Have you gone in the basement?

[dusky girder]

Ohhh

[sullen coyote]

Not me slamming the c key with that stupid green slime and the fly bug in floor 11 😭😭😭

[cinder carbon]

FOR REAL

And just... WASD doesn't work for top down 2D combat

[cobalt hare]

Trueee :purin_bluefacesmile:

[cinder carbon]

About to open 60 geodes

[sullen coyote]

The amount of times I’ve died in the mines is just embarrassing (before unlocking adventure guild too) I’m so terrible help

[sullen coyote]

WOOOOOOOO

Oh also what can be donated to the museum and what’s worth keeping

[cinder carbon]

(Museum is complete I am just bored waiting on kegs mostly)

I mean donate everything aside from dino egg, incubate the first one. Or don't

[bitter lintel]

keep first dino egg and p shard donate all else

then keep extras cause hoarding

[pine rune]

hohhh I wish this was cross platform so badly

[cinder carbon]

Beyond that keep whatever you like, a lot of the minerals sell for good money. You can tailor with them, I like to keep all my chicken statues for decorating

You can place items on end tables

[pine rune]

ong I decorate my chicken coops with the statues

[cinder carbon]

I seem to always end up with dozens

[sullen coyote]

Gotcha

[bitter lintel]

put dino egg into incubator and hatch then give it's egg to Gunthur

[sullen coyote]

eeeee

[bitter lintel]

then have a cute coop full of dino's

[sullen coyote]

Should I delete my current save or just start a new one

[bitter lintel]

why?

[sullen coyote]

Because I messed up a lot

Like not having the tappers

[cinder carbon]

Nah just keep playing

[pliant crown]

Hey I just got the game on Xbox and was wondering if anyone could teach me how to play

[cinder carbon]

Unless you want a different farm layout

I actually started playing my first save again and I did so much dumb stuff. But I worked with it and am gonna do perfection

[cinder carbon]

The game is pretty deep, just pay attention to what it tells you. I also suggest exploring the map a lot to learn where everything is. If you have more specific questions this is a great place to ssk

[native creek]

can you guys put prismatic shard in gem incubator or whatever its called?

[cinder carbon]

No

[cobalt hare]

Sadly no

😦

[native creek]

😭

i finally got 1

[cinder carbon]

You will get a lot more

[native creek]

what should i do with it

[cobalt hare]

Yippie! 😝

[cinder carbon]

@native creek hold onto it until you fix the bus

[cobalt hare]

Get galaxy sword 🗡️

[native creek]

i alredy fixed bus

[cinder carbon]

Or... yes let's just cut to the chase in new farmers

[woeful mesa]

I’m trying to get max hearts with all of the villagers for perfection but I have a question-
so if I max hearts with everyone then suddenly I lose hearts with Caroline, will it still count as me getting max with everyone or do I have to have everyone at max hearts at the same time- I’m so sorry this is the best I can explain it

[native creek]

ill get the sword lol

[woeful mesa]

I Can help but It’d be in a few days! ^^

[cinder carbon]

@woeful mesa how would you lose hearts after maxxing?

[woeful mesa]

Not talking to them and focusing on another villager

[cinder carbon]

Once you are at 8 for singles or 10 for nonsingles it doesn't decay

[woeful mesa]

OH I DIDNT KNOW THAT-

Thanks!

[cinder carbon]

Also, decay is very slow otherwise. Just talking to someone once a week is enough to actually gain friendship

[woeful mesa]

Oh okay!!

[cinder carbon]

Yeah not really something to worry about. Good luck on your quest!

[bitter lintel]

watch this, great help for new players #stardew-valley message

have fun!

[native creek]

i just got cellert thing, what should i be aging in there lol

[bitter lintel]

cheese

good energy and money

process fast

[native creek]

alr alr

ty

[pliant crown]

Thanks!

[cinder carbon]

I like to age mayonnaise. Just because the idea of aged mayonnaise is horrifying

[bitter lintel]

also make sure to plant and replant fully grown trees on the farm constantly, you need a lot of wood in this game

[burnt moon]

if I get angler for lvl 10 fishing, and I'm p2 in a coop, does it still apply to the sell box?

or would p1 also need to be an angler

[bitter lintel]

yes

good to spread skills in multiplayer

[burnt moon]

great, thanks :D

[honest wigeon]

I baught a small coop and small barn is it possible to upgrade them to big farms and coops in the future? because I know ill want those but then I should have just got them in the first place

[bitter lintel]

yes

you have to build by stages

[honest wigeon]

k thanks!

oh there was a option to buy a big one so i thought

[bitter lintel]

best to upgrade asap, less work for you

autofeeder and some animals need full max out building to be in

[honest wigeon]

Do they require more space? because I have alot of stuff around them?

[bitter lintel]

no

same footprint

[honest wigeon]

K thank you do muvhj

much*

[bitter lintel]

https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Barn

also get a heater at Marnie's for all coops and barns

keep animals happy in winter

[cinder carbon]

Well you get a heater as a bundle reward

If you do community center

[bitter lintel]

1 yes

[noble urchin]

I’m back after about 1-2 months 🙂

Happy thanksgiving guys (in Eastern time) (North America)

We've been discussing metaphysics vs epistemology specifically with regard to the implications of the Plato's Cave allegory @jaunty trail

Maybe someone thought you'd be interested

[jaunty trail]

Hmm, it's actually interesting but... I'm a bit burnt out with uni today.

Went to school, to wait for class, until nothing happened and we ended up going home anyway.

Did you play the game prior, like on mobile or sth?

[steep jay]

Yeah I got it on steam

[steep jay]

Dang is it that addicting

[bitter lintel]

PC superiority

and yes

is very fun

[jaunty trail]

I hear on mobile, there's no multiplayer.

So yeah, PC version is best since mods. Console, I believe, is a given to not have mod support.

Or I may be wrong on this one, idk

[steep jay]

how does multiplayer work ?

[jaunty trail]

That, I don't know. I've started solo/singleplayer and stuck with it.

I don't know how I can play with others. 😅

[steep jay]

Ohh no this game is so charming my life is over

[cinder carbon]

I'm sorry to hear that, very frustrating, I remember those days. The urban legend that if the prof was 10 mins late you could "legally" leave class 😂

[steep jay]

Man my male character looks like a girl but oh well why this game got me hooked just by the customization

[jaunty trail]

Yeah, that's an unspoken rule for us, and it's 15 minutes.

But our teacher ghosted us and last minute said she was lazy, so...

[jaunty trail]

Somehow, there's a character there than, on the get-go, you'll still figure a man even with long hair.

His hair, though - fabulous.

[cinder carbon]

Unspoken is I think legit but there were definitely stoners trying to convince everyone it was some codified rule

Just hope your prof is ok 😬 that always made me worry

[jaunty trail]

Yup, that's what it is for us, because it was sometimes to most followed by teachers anyway.

But there are teachers who'd show up clueless as to why there's no more students in the room after 15 minutes from them being late.

Anyway, back to SDV. 😅

I've stopped playing with my new playthrough. I think I'll go back to playing The Sims 4 for now.

To cope, I have Country Living which is kinda like farming, but hey...

[cinder carbon]

I've never done perfection so im teying to do it before v1.6

[steep jay]

Crazy that there's actually stiry

[cinder carbon]

Mostly close but gettingnthe 10 million gold is gonna take a bit and I hate grinding

[jaunty trail]

Yeah, there is. It'd be a bit dull if there isn't.

And good thing there is more than just farming.

[cinder carbon]

Growing crops is the worst part of the game imo 😂

[jaunty trail]

Yup. Different days, a chance to have crows eat one or two of your growing crops, watering.

This is if you're just starting out.

[haughty spire]

The most new farmer conversation

[jaunty trail]

No sprinklers, no scarecrows...

[jaunty trail]

F0rtishka's 0.1% villainy era.

[cinder carbon]

In a way, yeah. New players want to know what the goal is, so they should know there is a "perfection" achievement and what it entails within the limits of this channel

[jaunty trail]

I mean, tbh, it can be baffling how people are quick to jump "that's spoilers, move it somewhere else" when there's going to be many connecting the dots and questions before they realise it is spoilers.

[haughty spire]

There's no goal its a sandbox

[jaunty trail]

New players wouldn't know it's spoilers unless you say so. Only if they ask questions should you tell them it's spoilers territory.

[haughty spire]

And what you talk about is way post-CC which is restricted here

[cinder carbon]

What did I say that is post-cc

[haughty spire]

Hm i wonder

[gaunt gale]

lmao

[bitter lintel]

and decoarating is the best

[cinder carbon]

That's the true endgame

[jaunty trail]

Decorating is most soothing/satisfying at end game, when you have nothing else to stress about.

[cinder carbon]

What an answer

[dim dune]

||perfection is only mentioned when u meet qi|| so i dont think u can even mention it here idk

[haughty spire]

Actually, even further than that

[gaunt gale]

reagrdless it's post cc

[dim dune]

yea after the ||golden walnuts|| basically end game

[cinder carbon]

The thing is
You can tell new players, there is this perfection goal that requires you to ship every item, cook everything, and craft everything. That prepares them for the goal. You can say "perfection" without mentioning anything post-cc

[jaunty trail]

Though, it's pretty stigmatising that when you mention a single term used in post-CC, no context, that it's immediately considered spoilers. For example: ||golden walnut|| - might I ask, what are the new players gonna do with that information, with only 2 words?

[cinder carbon]

But that involves nuance and context which clearly some people are not good with

[haughty spire]

Bro its post cc and post cc is not allowed there

[dim dune]

some players rlly like playing with no guide and just finding out things as they go along so i guess its just not fair for some new farmers

[haughty spire]

You clearly dont care about the rules

[dim dune]

its true that SOME new farmers would appreciate knowing but some also might not so just spoiler tag anyway?

[gaunt gale]

I mean that's completely different, the whole point is nothing cc because even if they can';t do much with that info they can ask around and find info that can ruin the game for them

the whole point of this chat is no spoilers regardless of what you specifically think about it

[jaunty trail]

Yeah, I guess spoiler-tagging would be also a good, sort of, alternative or substitute.

[cinder carbon]

Okay. Just realize yall are going after the word "perfection". Dropping it here.

[jaunty trail]

Them uncovering the spoiler tag is at their own discretion.

[gaunt gale]

going after the term perfection

in the context of lategame stardew

which is what you presented it as

that's completely different

[dim dune]

well if new farmers didnt know perfection was a spoiler before they definitely do now because everyone is pointing it out LOL

[full kite]

Getting flashbacks to that one guy from a couple weeks back who would not stop trying to defend himself for ignoring the spoiler rules

At least this isn't that bad

[jaunty trail]

This, lol - we could've just leave it there.

[gaunt gale]

You could say any spoiler is just words and its true, the spoiler aspect is the context

[jaunty trail]

I think I remembered that. I didn't invest my time in it, though.

I just saw someone talking about it in a few messages, then that's it (for me).

[cobalt hare]

im so spoiled

[full kite]

We are all spoiled by CA

[dim dune]

oh noooo look what uve done

[cinder carbon]

I want mommy to spoil me

[jaunty trail]

Now I think we're kinda touching RP territory, lolol

[full kite]

Did we ever leave?

[cobalt hare]

stop

[cinder carbon]

Legally I can't

[jaunty trail]

I don't think I RP, yeah - not that I find it either childish or can-be creepy, but yeah... Not my taste, I guess? 😅

[cobalt hare]

ill have to resort to extreme measures if you wouldnt

[dim dune]

honestly think the last time i did rp was in 2014

do ppl rlly still rp

[jaunty trail]

Anyway, back on-topic. Should I stick with Stone Walkway Floor, or Crystal Floor?

[full kite]

I RP somebody with crippling depression! Wait a minute...

[jaunty trail]

Fantasise is more appropriate, as they're often NSFW.

[gaunt gale]

sstone brick floor best

[dim dune]

stone is such a classic look

[full kite]

I second stone brick floor

[jaunty trail]

I see others using the latter. It looks a bit blue, maybe too blue. And yeah, I kinda like Stone Walkway Floor more.

[dim dune]

crystal feels so unnatural and modern

[full kite]

^

I struggle to find really aesthetically pleasing ways to use crystal floor

[jaunty trail]

Though, a screenshot of a farm layout I'm following uses a retextured Crystal Floor. I thought they used a custom Stone Walkway, but it took up the Crystal Floor space instead.

[cinder carbon]

If i wouldn't, could you've not under any circumstances done instead that which in other words isn't what you wouldn't?

[jaunty trail]

Here.

[dim dune]

is that a cat scarecrow??

[jaunty trail]

I thought that was a modified Stone Walkway Floor, but it's Crystal Floor.

[jaunty trail]

Catcrow mod, but I don't use it. I'm keeping mine vanilla, just following the layout.

[dim dune]

ahhh its so cute

[jaunty trail]

There's also this, which looks like the edge inside the plot of the greenhouse, BUT it uses the gravel pathing, not any wood-related floor pathing.

[dim dune]

yea stone would look the most similar to that floor tbh

[jaunty trail]

So instead of gravel, I just used the Weathered Floor 'cos it looks best as a wooden floor pathing.

[jaunty trail]

Yup, I'm sticking to that. 😊

[cinder carbon]

I hate gravel paths

[full kite]

Well, you can replace any game assets you want with modded ones by just fiddling with the files

[cinder carbon]

The sound... just no

[jaunty trail]

The normal wooden floor path looks too large in planks for me.

[full kite]

I just don't like the look of it all that much

[woeful stone]

hihi

[full kite]

I predominately use stepping stone path for outdoor spaces

[jaunty trail]

They would've been nice if they don't overlap with grass; they're meant to sink below dirt.

[woeful stone]

how can i get the farm icon

[gaunt lion]

What

[dim dune]

the what

[jaunty trail]

This is what mine looked like before I started over.

[gaunt gale]

looks good, I like the animal area

[full kite]

Check the #roles channel

[woeful stone]

thank u!!!!

[jaunty trail]

Thing is, I don't want them to eat the grass, so I had to add a mod that prevents them from depleting the patches of grass.

[dim dune]

so pretttyy

[jaunty trail]

Good thing, the mod considers the animals still being fed with grass when exposed to it.

[gaunt gale]

might as well mod what you want it

seems nice

[jaunty trail]

But that bad thing is, truffles won't spawn because pigs need to step on empty spaces (no floor pathing) to "find" truffles.

Ay, well.

[jaunty trail]

Thank you, though. 🙂

I had to reupload it with a tag.

[gaunt lion]

According to multiple people I’ve asked, Pigs still produce Truffles on Paths

[jaunty trail]

Really? Hmm, wait... How long do they need to find truffles?

[gaunt lion]

They usually do it early in the day

[gaunt gale]

they can spawn truffles on grass and tiles,k due to bugs with their pathfinding the rates in which they do so is massively nerfed, this may or may not be changedin 1.6

[jaunty trail]

Huh. Welp, mine doesn't. And there's stone pathing in front of the barn there in my screenie.

[jaunty trail]

Hope it does. It is dropped on the ground, right?

[gaunt lion]

It’s on the ground like a Foragable

[jaunty trail]

And they're like forage that can be harvested (but not counts as foraging) 'cos they're plopped onto the ground.

[gaunt gale]

it's the same as usual

just happens at a really low rate

[jaunty trail]

So that way, they won't be magnetised to the player, and that they don't disappear if the player missed them.

[granite orbit]

Hey hey I've kinda been struggling to get some fishes

[jaunty trail]

I see. I may misinterpret some screenshots, but I seem some pigs with truffles attached to them.

[granite orbit]

What do I have do exactly with the green bar ?

[gaunt lion]

They count as foraging for Foraging Professions

[jaunty trail]

And you have to right-click the pig/s to collect the truffle/s.

[gaunt gale]

yeah that's not what happens in the base game, perhaps a mod?

[gaunt lion]

Keep the fish inside it
Left click make the bar go up
Right click makes it go down

[dim dune]

keep the fish icon in the green bar!

[gaunt lion]

Couldn’t find a single mod that changes how truffles are spawned and was told there aren’t any

[jaunty trail]

Or is it that they just so happen to be in the same tile as the truffle, that they're overlapping with each other?

[granite orbit]

Aaaaaah I see!

[dim dune]

if ur on pc then just click and hold to go up and let go to go down

[granite orbit]

Thank you both

[gaunt gale]

probably is something somewhere

[granite orbit]

Noted !

[gaunt lion]

There was something with like coding that made it impossible

[gaunt gale]

https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/14162

found one

[gaunt lion]

That doesn’t change how truffles spawn

[jaunty trail]

Thank Yoba the game is so easily modded if you know how to code or edit sprites.

[gaunt lion]

That just makes Auto-Grabber detect truffles outside

[gaunt gale]

ohh mb, I mistook your request

[jaunty trail]

So it may or may not be difficult, either way, it's not totally impossible.

'Cos I hear you really have to change the game's coding to make something happen that's not ordinary modding.

[gaunt gale]

I mean even if it doesn't change the way they spawn it can alter them after they do, so technically it doens't really matter does it?

[jaunty trail]

Modders seems to not touch it 'cos it'll need more regular maintenance than just content patcher, as every update, things are added, codes are moved around, incompatibilities. Urgh... 😩

[jaunty trail]

Yeah, I have the mod installed. Not seen a truffle yet in the auto-grabber.

[gaunt lion]

As you said, paths and grass fuck up truffle rates. And I want my animal pens to be covered in either paths or grass

[gaunt gale]

ah ok yeah I'm stupid

my mind completely skipped over that correlation

hmmm

[jaunty trail]

Completely, or mixed with pathing like mine? 😮

[gaunt lion]

*Paths and/or grass

[jaunty trail]

Ah, my bad.

[gaunt gale]

There probably is a mod to change what items you get from certain animals, you could change pigs for example to always give truffles when milked or another process to net truffles instead of it's usual product

[gaunt lion]

Also would be funny be able to make a farm where animals can not go outside and still have truffles

[gaunt gale]

that would do the same in a very roundabout way

[gaunt lion]

The closest thing I found was reskinned pigs
I looked multiple places and was told there wasn’t a single mod that changes how truffles spawn

[jaunty trail]

How do truffles even taste irl?

Sorry, I've never tasted one before.

[gaunt lion]

They’re rich people food so whatever that means to you

[gaunt gale]

yeah but my point is there are mods that can change what you get from what, there could be ways to make other sources of truffles that you use instead of the pigs themselves

[sullen coyote]

Yeah I seem to not be able to get all the fish even it’s the training rod lol

[jaunty trail]

There was a bag of chips in truffles flavour and we didn't wanna pick it as we may regret it if we end up not wanting the taste of it.

[gaunt gale]

or maybe a mod that changes the paths/grass instead of the truffles?

[woeful stone]

what did you guys buy in the autumn sales

[jaunty trail]

Still struggling up to this day myself. 🥹

But you'll get the hang of it somehow.

[jaunty trail]

What are the games for sale?

[gaunt gale]

civ 6

[sullen coyote]

Thanks, you too :)

[bitter lintel]

training rod only lets you catch basic fish, or do you mean they still escape?

[gaunt lion]

again

Have not found anything that does that

[gaunt gale]

I bought some other stuff from other sales not on steam so I'm good rn

[gaunt gale]

yeah I'm just offering ideas

[jaunty trail]

lol, that's what FilthyGorilla has been doing. Not necessarily looking for a mod that does it.

[rare niche]

yo filthy

[jaunty trail]

They are nice ideas nonetheless.

[gaunt gale]

heya ben

[gaunt gale]

oh gosh I remember that

somethign about someones timed script

[rare niche]

yea

there was another one of your messages right above that one

[gaunt gale]

and reducing their timing cooldowns

[jaunty trail]

You do scripting, Gorilla? 😮

[gaunt gale]

only for animation canclling and some macros for in game

[jaunty trail]

Mm, that's nice. How is scripting/coding for the game?

[gaunt gale]

I don't code, my ocding is very bad

[jaunty trail]

The only thing close to that modding for me are triggers in the World Editor of Warcraft III.

[gaunt gale]

I only do the smallest amount

[jaunty trail]

And heck, that was confusing.

[jaunty trail]

Ah, I see. That's understandable.

[gaunt gale]

I wrote my first animation script with some help from another text document but that's basically it for coding regarrding stardew

I'd love to get into it but I have never been able to understand coding, i've tried learning a bunch of coding languages but it's never meshed

maybe I'll take it up again someday

[jaunty trail]

Same. At least there's sprite and image editing for the game. lol

[gaunt gale]

mhm

and I use some scripts from other people for stufgf

but It's more lik e"now they told me to click this button, or was is this button....."

Like navigating the stardew seedfinding script 😢

i'm like a caveman when it comes to coding

[rare niche]

heh nice

[gaunt gale]

lol

[stoic atlas]

Dark sword or Obsidian sword?

I have both of them but idk which one I want to keep

[gaunt gale]

I’d use dark

Though it swung abysmally slow

Actually pre 1.5 I would have done dark but now do obsidian edge

It’s just more reliable

[stoic atlas]

Should I hold onto weapons I’m no longer using or sell them to the adventurers guild?

[haughty spire]

If you want to sell - sell, if you want to keep for something - keep

Theres no other uses of "old" weapons other than cosmetics

[rare niche]

I mean theres always the chance you accidentally trash your weapon, you'll need a backup

[cobalt hare]

i just completed the cc, whats next? isnt there like.. ceremony or something?

[granite orbit]

I know right, you kinda need to get the hang of it

[gaunt gale]

Yeah

Then you’ll see after that you get some mail

But you’ll have to move into #stardew-spoilers to talk about all that stuff

[rare niche]

Because it talks about something related to ||sc|| which needs to be spoiled

[quartz fulcrum]

hiii

[dim dune]

kinda isnt a spoiler by itself tho its so vague

[rare niche]

Hello

[dusky girder]

||treasure rooms aren't exclusive to sc||

[granite orbit]

also how do I give gift to the villagers ? do I need some wrapping paper ?

[small coyote]

You just hold the gift and right click the npc

[dim dune]

just bring the item to them and right click to give

[granite orbit]

okee dokee !

Thank you!

[rare niche]

I'd say there is a difference between mine level rewards and|| treasure rooms in sc||

Based on the loot tables

[gaunt gale]

There is a massive difference

[dusky girder]

I wouldn't

[gaunt gale]

The former is gear for progressing deeper within the mines and the latter is mostly random loot

[rare niche]

Mine level rewards don't give you "treasure" they give you things to progress further

[gaunt gale]

Like hats, seeds, and machines (referencing my previous comment)

[vague patio]

||any easy way of getting a ton of stairs for skull cavern?||

||any new farmer that sees this will assume theyre talking about the mines so i dont see how its a spoiler||

||them mentioning sc was spoiler tagged||

[rare niche]

If they clicked on the spoiler and saw both ||sc and treasure room|| in the same message you'd think it's obvious what their referring too

[gaunt gale]

Yeah it’s behind in updates, hasn’t yet gotten the one that makes level 100 always have treasure even before the secret note

[dim dune]

anyone who clicks on a spoiler tag should expect to be spoiled ermmm ahah

[dusky girder]

Yes!

[rare niche]

Look, there is a difference. One is exclusive to an area which already needs to be spoilered by itself, so evidently that exclusive feature needs to be spoilered aswell

[dim dune]

ironically you yourself left ||sc|| unspoilertagged here

[proud pivot]

||Iron man dies||

[dim dune]

oh nevermind im wronggg

[rare niche]

Quill could you clarify to the other member so they're not left wondering?

[proud pivot]

It's true, Mojo Jojo kills him

[gaunt gale]

Damn should have spoilered

That is my favourite movie I’ve watched 999 times and never knew that

[cunning silo]

technically its pre-cc

[gaunt gale]

Because I skip that part specifically every time

[gaunt gale]

It’s post marriage though

[fair stream]

All I can really say is

[rare niche]

Well that's not what needs to be clarified, it's the difference between the two things

[gaunt gale]

PINS

[blazing kelp]

But then the clicked on the spoiler to see it so it doesent matter

Also ops didn't see quills message

Chat wasn't rolling for me

[gaunt gale]

Post marriage rewards can’t even be mentioned here I don’t think

Rewards/events

[fair stream]

mb

[gaunt gale]

Np

[fair stream]

misread the darn pins I need to not be doing this when I have study brain fog

[rare niche]

I think the member is wondering why ||treasure rooms|| need to be spoilered because they think they're the same as mine level rewards

So that's all i'm asking to be clarified

For their sake

[blazing kelp]

Isn't mine level rewards treasure rooms?

[rare niche]

No

[gaunt lion]

They can

Marriage rewards

[rare niche]

One is to help you progress to 120, the other gives you actual treasure to help you with stuff on your farm

[gaunt lion]

Heart Events can’t

[gaunt gale]

Most post marriage rewards are from the heart events. Only the stardrop isn’t

[gaunt lion]

10+ Heart Events, the actual story, is what can’t be mentioned
Marriage Rewards, I.e Daily Chores, Stardrop, Kids can be talked about

[rare niche]

I mean if you really wanted to get technical you could say they're the same, but there is a clear difference

[blazing kelp]

10 heart and higher

Check the pins

[fair stream]

okay

tldr time:

1. no post-cc/post joja
2. no post-marriage event stuff even if pre-cc
3. Individual cc room/joja rewards can be mentioned. This doesn't includes ||the desert, sc|| and other things not mentioned in the bundle rewards explicitly.
4. stuff unrelated to these three is okay

[gaunt lion]

“Events”

[gaunt gale]

The mod just said no post marriage “stuff”

[rare niche]

So final question, does ||treasure room|| need to spoiled?

When talking about ||sc||

[gaunt lion]

There was a second between the Mod’s message and mine
Have you considered i was typing before I could read it

[gaunt lion]

||Anything SC needs to be Tagged||

[proud pivot]

See the future next time

[fair stream]

can y'all stop arguing please

[gaunt gale]

I’m not trying to be hostile here, I was just pointing it out

[rare niche]

I'm not, I just want your answer to my last question lol

[gaunt gale]

No need to argue, I’d just like some peaceful discussion ideally

[fair stream]

yes, when talking about ||sc||

the mine reward rooms are separate

[cobalt hare]

welp, gotta go fast then

i just unlockes bnuuy last autumn 😦 no rabbits foot

[rare niche]

Penny loves Emeralds and Haley loves Sunflowers / Coconuts

[elfin summit]

If I put a chest outside, does it get destroyed by lightning?

[rare niche]

Let me check

[cobalt hare]

hahaha

[gaunt lion]

Lightning doesn’t break furniture

[cobalt hare]

bro changed his mind

[rare niche]

No it can not

[elfin summit]

Oh thank you.

[rare niche]

Mhm

[elfin summit]

Good to know

I’ve always placed my chests inside my house

Welp

[rare niche]

Well once you have sheds you won't have to worry

[gaunt lion]

That feels so tedious

[elfin summit]

It really is

[gaunt gale]

Many people go there post cc but not to hang around

[gaunt gale]

Those are the universal loves

[rare niche]

yes

[gaunt gale]

Same it’s just handy

[rare niche]

We'll it's hard to gift them in that situation

[gaunt gale]

How? It’s basically the easiest place to access

[gaunt gale]

You can just gift them as they walk by

They all go at a set time

[gaunt lion]

Because you have to go inside
As opposed to them being outside where you can just walk by them

[rare niche]

Yea but it's easier to do it while they aren't moving

[gaunt gale]

I mean you wake up inside, and it’s only one interaction with your door too.

[rare niche]

Another thing is mass gifting at each night market day @cobalt hare

Take a note of who goes each day

[gaunt lion]

I interact with my chests like 7 times a day, having to go inside and outside for every single time sounds annoying

[rare niche]

Since you just ended fall, right?

[gaunt gale]

Interacting with all your chests 7 times a day sounds annoying too

[cobalt hare]

thanks, i'm on Wi 9th Y2 the night market starts soon

[rare niche]

Yea, try and save up on gifts for that I suppose

But now i'm going to go to sleep, since it's 3 am

[gaunt gale]

Having them out in the middle of the way sounds like a hassle too, the only handy spot I can think of is near the farm warp but that’s where I like to put other stuff

Where do you have them outside?

[gaunt lion]

Usually next to the house

[rare niche]

On all of my saves they've been in rows next to my house

[gaunt gale]

Is that not more annoying to walk down to them or up from the farm warp location?

[rare niche]

Well usually we're not constantly farm warping lol

[lavish basin]

[gaunt lion]

I usually only use farm warp if it’s 1am and I don’t wanna pass out

[rare niche]

more arguments have happened

[gaunt lion]

If I do warp to farm I’m usually going somewhere else immediately anyways

[gaunt gale]

I mean sure but going into the door isn’t all that much more annoying than walking to the outside of your house generally, you wake up indoors too so it’s handy to have them right as you’re up

[lavish basin]

Typical new farmers

[gaunt gale]

To dump stuff from the previous day

[rare niche]

Yea, i see no issue with putting them inside your house

[gaunt lion]

You walk by your house when you wake up and go back home

[rare niche]

real

[gaunt gale]

I mean most people get a scepter or farm warps en masse

[rare niche]

mhm

Now I have to sleep

[gaunt gale]

Later on people get the scepter, then it’s quite easy to have them indoors because the door is so close

Plus they take a lot of space if you have a bunch of chests

Clogs walkways and more valuable tiles

[fallow mantle]

where do you find skeletons

[gaunt gale]

Inside the house the space doesn’t really matter

[rare niche]

Floors 70-80 in the mines

[gaunt lion]

Why would they clog a walkway

[gaunt gale]

71-79

[gaunt lion]

Just don’t put them in a Walkway

[fallow mantle]

okk thz

[gaunt gale]

You said you have them right outside the house did you not

[rare niche]

Np

[gaunt lion]

Near the house yea

You can still have clear walkways

[fallow mantle]

Any tips on how to survive in the mines for a long time?

[gaunt gale]

But then it’s more awkward to get to them if they aren’t near somewhere you commonly travel

[gaunt lion]

Food

[gaunt gale]

Bring food

[gaunt lion]

They are somewhere I commonly travel

They are next to my normal walkways

[rare niche]

Man new farmers "conversations" last so long

[gaunt gale]

And that’s not in the way at all?

[gaunt lion]

No because they’re not in the middle of my path

[gaunt gale]

I didn’t say they had to be in the middle of your path

Simply that they could obstruct it

Or be an annoyance as you walk by

[gaunt lion]

My point is that they’re not obstructing anything

[gaunt gale]

I often place chests right outside the house and they can be a bit annoying at times

How do we send pics on here? I have a question about something in-game and the wiki isn’t any help. I tried clicking the + button but it won’t do anything.

You need to level up by talking in channels

[stoic atlas]

Thank you!

[rare niche]

Np

[gaunt gale]

#images-and-memes or when you reach level 5 in any channel

[rare niche]

u a lil late man

[gaunt gale]

Maybe, I just wanted to put what both of you said in a more concise message

[rare niche]

Breh

[gaunt gale]

As both were true

[stoic atlas]

It was super helpful!

[rare niche]

👍

[gaunt gale]

It was only a single minute after they asked too

[tall hamlet]

whats the best way to get a lot of kegs?

[rare niche]

Mhm

[gaunt gale]

I don’t think that’s too horrible

[rare niche]

God this rabbit hole is not easy

[gaunt gale]

Set up a dedicated tapper farm with a lot of oak trees and buy wood

[small coyote]

Tap a lot of oak trees and grow a ton of trees

[gaunt gale]

That’s pretty much it

Buying the wood year 1 is ideal

[tall hamlet]

alright ty

[rare niche]

keg time is the worst time

[gaunt gale]

As it’s just so much cheaper

[tall hamlet]

im not on y1

[gaunt gale]

There are plenty worse times I assure you

[gaunt gale]

Doesn’t matter too much, they pay themselves off

[rare niche]

sure

most time consuming i'd say

[tall hamlet]

i do have all the wood i need, just tha mining the ores take so long 😭

[rare niche]

eh, you can always buy from clint's

[tall hamlet]

oh yeahh

i forgot about clint

[rare niche]

though it's not ideal

[gaunt gale]

Just reset floor 41 for iron, you can pretty easily get like 400 ore a day that way, copper is more annoying but resetting level 1 of sc is generally better than 21 of the mines

You can always buy the ore too

[rare niche]

and there you have it

[gaunt gale]

Ooh not at all

[tall hamlet]

alright y!!

[gaunt gale]

The crystalarium grind 😐

[polar pecan]

Aging wine and cheese takes seasons to become iridium quality. Altho you can abruptly stop the aging process by striking the casks with an axe or pickaxe...

[gaunt gale]

Those takes a while to craft in bulk

[rare niche]

sure sure mr dirty monkey

can't make an argument for that as I've never reached that stage

[gaunt gale]

Ah

[rare niche]

have reached the keg stage though so that's why I chose that as the most time consuming

[gaunt gale]

I guessed

[rare niche]

mhm

[gaunt gale]

What stage in the game progression did you get to?

[rare niche]

Uhh year 8

was still working on the kegs I think

[tribal wigeon]

[rare niche]

but then I quit sdv for a year

[gaunt gale]

Getting back into it?

[rare niche]

sdv yes, that save no

it's modding time 🤑

[gaunt gale]

Not going to finish a save first?

[rare niche]

Nah

Gave up

[gaunt gale]

I always finish a vanilla save in a game before modding

[rare niche]

i'm weird like that

[gaunt gale]

Makes me enjoy modding more I find

[cunning silo]

true...

[rare niche]

Do you have to spoil that?

[gaunt gale]

That’s honestly perfect for it tbh

Good mix

[gaunt gale]

Ideally not mentioning that here at all

[rare niche]

ah

[fair stream]

(considering that it's technically post-cc info,,, I'd say no mentioning it at all?)

[gaunt gale]

Very very post cc

[fair stream]

agreeing with gorilla here, to clarify

[rare niche]

I would assume a lot of people would know what that is, as i'm sure most people look into the finale of a game before playing it

but whatever

[gaunt gale]

That’s not the point though. This chat is no post cc regardless of what people do or don’t know

[rare niche]

Yea I know

[gaunt gale]

Just making sure

[rare niche]

lol
