Was there an update last night? I've been using a 360 controller to play and every so often it gets weird when it can't detect a cursor, but it's even worse today and unplayable with it. Anyone else having a similar issue?

I play with a 360 controller too and have the occasional problem of the A button simply not working sometimes. I've been able to solve it without exiting the game by hitting start to pull up the menu then just exiting the menu. Give that a try, it might help

You desperately need to be able to buy Iridium ore from the blacksmith, right now it's so rare it might as well not be in the game.

How do I get the iridium rod? The wiki is useless, I have everything maxed but the fisherman doens't sell it, the smith won't upgrade my fiberglass rod and I have to finish the community center and fishing is poo poo. Where do I get it? PLEASE!

Using the right click to do the action also fixes it. (i.e. The click does the action and then my A button starts working again.)

Usually I just jostle the right controller but it would absolutely not stay fixed. I'll have to try it again later.

Just upgraded my house. Once a storm comes, I'll be popping the question to Leah. I plan to move the coop over to the pen next to the stables soon. The empty grid is a plot expansion that I'll need 32 quality sprinklers for, but by the time I'll have the mats for it it'll be close to the end of the season, so that'll wait until summer. My farm is still humble, I haven't gotten into money-making schemes like hops or any other kind of artisan goods.

I got the letter telling me it was for sale at Willy's shop the day after I hit Fishing 5, which happened when I got the "catch 100 fish" achievement.

You can demolish them and rebuild them again, at least. Go talk to Robin, it should be in her shop menu.

I'll have to create a new coop, move my chickens, and then delete the old one. I was planning ahead; I thought I was clever that I was gonna have one large pen in the upper left corner with coops and barns. Then I realized I'd rather have them next to my house.

Drink coffee, possibly a few other recipes for a temporary buff. You can also ride a horse to go faster.

I think it was more like, modifying the game to just always be moving a bit faster. I don't want to noclip around the map and teleport everywhere instantly but a 10-15% move speed increase would be nice, it's a real BadFeel to realize you have to run across the entire map to deposit or sell something when you move pretty slow.

You should at least get a couple cheese / mayo machines so your income from animal products go from 'pitiful' to 'modest' - 1 per animal is ideal to save time but making 2 stops per day is doable, 3 is a pain in the rear end.

For the most part, no, but any new ancient seed artifacts can be crafted into seeds.

For anyone who uses, or wants to use, the modding API and mods that depend on it, there's a way to have Steam launch the API EXE rather than the regular game EXE.

Right-click Stardew Valley in your library, Properties, click Set Launch Options, then in the box that pops up you need to put the full path to the API EXE, followed by %command%.

For example, mine is:

quote:

"D:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

Yeah, get InputMapper and it will register your Dual Shock 4 as though it were a 360 controller.

They'll be fine. I have four chickens, a cow, and a duck, I let them outside regularly, and I have never built a fence.

Out of curiosity, what happens if the entrance to their building is blocked in some way? (Like closing it manually during the day or a closed gate.)

They do. gently caress, they do. As do stone walls and iron fences. Hardwood fences don't seem to decay, though. (At least the ones I've put up have lasted two seasons with no decay.)

I don't know! I did have a cow get stuck on a cheese machine. I imagine they might get stuck outside.

That wouldn't be weird if not for the fact that nothing else in the game seems to suffer the same consequences (your crops never spoiler, machinery never breaks down).

Given how lax and forgiving the game is about everything else, I can't say I understand implementing that unless it's something from an older build of the game that never got patched out.
