I foraged enough salmonberries or whatever in the spring to keep plying the art girl with gifts she seems to love for an entire year. And I still have enough to use in the mines for energy boosts.

I see her all the time but I can't talk to her, I assumed she was one of the other villagers who I'd already talked to that day. Even the cruster and the camera girl have a prompt telling you they're too busy.

Infinitely many points, but zero length.
Regarding likes/dislikes, these are defined in Content\Data\NPCGiftTastes.xnb. They are denoted by ID # corresponding to the item in Content\Data\ObjectInformation.xnb. Some ID # are negative numbers corresponding to item categories in ObjectInformation.xnb. For example,

code:
"Abigail": " I seriously love this! You're the best, @!/66 128 220 226 276 611/Hey, how'd you know I was hungry? This looks delicious!//What am I supposed to do with this?/-5 -75 -79 16 245 246/What were you thinking? This is awful!/330/You brought me a present? Thanks.// ",
The first line is what Abigail says after you give her something she loves. The numbers afterward correspond to the Object IDs. 66 is Amethyst, 128 is Pufferfish, 220 is Chocolate Cake, 226 is Spicy Eel, and 611 is Blackberry cobbler.

The second line is what Abigail says after you give her something she likes. Note the numbers afterward include -5, -75, and -79. Those are object categories defined in the ObjectInformation.xnb file. See an example object below.

code:
"174": "Large Egg/50/15/Basic -5/It's an uncommonly large white egg!",
Here's the code for a Large Egg. It has ID # 174, but also note the -5 after Basic. That's the item category. Looking through the file, it appears that category includes 174 (Large Egg), 176 (Egg), 180 (Egg, brown), 182 (Large Egg, brown), 305 (Void Egg), and 442 (Duck Egg). So it's safe to say -5 is the category for eggs. So Abigail also likes all eggs.

It would take time, but you can check every single NPC on this list http://pastebin.com/W6Va4fQ9 against every object and category on this one: http://pastebin.com/gG2AMXK0

In addition, all NPCs share universal loves, likes, dislikes, and hates. Note that diamond, ID 72, is not found on any of Abigail's loves or likes. But it is on the universal like list under -2 (category gems), so that's why Abigail likes diamonds but doesn't love them.

Or tell me how to get another row in my inventory I'm missing something

Seriously just clearing a small space to plant your turnips and I'm full on inventory space. Can I get rid of fiber or wood to start with or do I need to hoard?
2nd day you get a fishing pole but enjoy no inventory space :/

You can build a chest for 50 wood on the crafting panel (it's the hammer tab on your esc/inventory button.) They sell backpack upgrades in the general store too, i think the first one costs 2k or something?

there's pretty much no tutorial at all, but there's also no fail state so it won't actually hurt you to just bumblefuck around learning things on your own. if you don't like doing that though, it might be pretty frustrating

You get a kitchen with your first house upgrade, other than than I just lived on salmon berries and snack bars. And raw fish.

What does that hobo get to complain about anyway, trashcan meals aren't too bad compared to working all day and then choking down pine cones and fish heads.

Is it best to sell everything to rush the backpack upgrade or can your starting farm get you there quick enough?

Basically every morning till about 10 I water my crops,clear some more land then either try to meet people I'm missing or fish :3

I would rather cut my own arm off than play with only the 12 starting slots so I rushed 2000g for the backpack asap. Just spend all your money on the 20g parsnip seeds, plant, sleep for 4 days and you should get enough.

Chop trees, 200 wood lets you repair the bridge on the right end of the beach, which leads to a set of tidal pools that, when you first get there, should be stocked with a fair amount of cash shellfish.

there's a bug where it won't save if you level a skill up that night, so yeah early in the game when you're raising lots of stuff at once it can bone you

For everyone with save errors :

If you recently levelled up a skill, the save will revert back to that day, its a known bug.

Best way around it, is to just save and quit on a day you didnt get any Level Ups.

The game's "campaign" storyline has two paths: you can support the community center, or you can support the Joja Corporation. I'm going with the former, but I imagine you are doing essentially the same thing if you do it with Joja.

Where was it sold, from the wagon? How much did it cost? I want to be on the lookout for that, I'd love to get one early.

It says it covers "24 blocks". What does that mean? I assume it is a 5x5 square area, with the sprinkler in the middle?
