Reproduction Steps: We played the Tree Planting Festival and uppon ending the day we noticed that the second player did not get any friendship increases with any npc (Player 1 had like 8)
After looking into the save files (comparing from the night before the festival and the night after) the heart point increases for Player 2 are way lower than for Player 1, often being way below even the 70 points you get from a successful festival.
Repro Rate: After restoring a backup, we tried 2 more times with the same results
In-Game Date & Time: During sleeping day-recap.
Players & Platform: One additional Player joined (they are not on the server yet). I was host and we poth are on PC and Steam.
Game Version: It first appeared with the Multiplayer Release Version, but we also reproduced it with todays 1.2-1238.
Input Mode: Keyboard & Mouse
#Second player not getting friendship points from Tree Planting Festival

I didn't get any friendships from the cherry festival as player 2

Hi @marble axle @wheat coral , thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! Do you happen to have a screenshot or video that shows the difference in friendship points between the Host and Player 2?

Hi @thorny furnace,
I find it hard to imagine how to accurately capture this via image or video.
Since the friendship points are not displayed numerically, you only see the changes in completed hearts, which could also happen with just the "Talking" interaction on the festival day.
I can certainly spin up the backups i provided and do screenshots, but I thought the saves would give a more accurate insight.

I wasn't recording at the time, but if we did another festival would a recording from host and player work to show that the host receives the portrait and heart animation and the other player doesn't?

That would work! And just to clarify, do the Host and Guest usually engage with townies outside of the festival? As this may affect the difference in heart increase 🤔

We both sometimes talk to people, but I haven't looked for differences in friendship amounts, just found it odd that I didn't see the portraits pop up like they do in single player after a festival

Should be around the same level of engagement.
But to understand this better: Does a regular high level of engagement lead to higher friendship gains during festivals? I thought those gains were fixed.
If those values are dependend on previous engagement, this could explain the different results for host and guest.

Well my host @upbeat cove didn't see the relationship screen in the next day animation either, so maybe this is a different bug

It also happened with my friend and me. I, as the host, got like 8 people hearts up and she got none. She is the more social one and we both talked with everyone during the festival.

This happened to me and my boyfriend. Seeing that I found it very weird, I thought I'd go search for the bug. But since this post here is from August, has there ever been any development? I found it quite sad that he got all the friendship, and me nothing (we also talk to everyone at every festival too) but the reward for the festival literally is friendship or am I wrong?
