This mod sounds great but there isn't any info on how auto milking cows works.

I don't even know. I had to buy some cows for recipe completion and was getting worried that they never gave milk. Then I checked the chest in their barn, and BAM a couple dozen milk.

I think it essentially autopets too. Their hearts were ticking up without my intervention.

Never mind you are using that automation mod I see the chests now.

New favorite mod: http://stardewvalleymods.net/farm-automation-item-collector-mod/

1. It allows you to fill barns to the brink with 1 entryway, 1 chest, and every other tile keg. (Or casks in the basement, etc.)

2. It automilks cows.

3. The last time I posted my farm, a goon pointed out that I had an excessive number of trees. Well, thanks to the 200 oak and 100 maple trees that I got up as quickly as possible, I was stocked on resin and syrup by year 4.

I now have an excessive number of bees.

Nothing to see here. Move along.

I tried that automation mod and it doesn't seem to be auto-miking my cows. Petting yes, but milking no. i have the milk pail in the chest in the barn with my cows. Does the fact I have pigs in there gently caress with thinkgs?

It shouldn't, I have all the different animals and I've not had any problems. Can you still manually milk them or are they not producing anything because they're pissed at you?

I still need to work out how many kegs I need. I'm in late fall, so just going to chill through winter and see what my stock looks like in spring.

I'm actually more focused on recipe completion now, which is how I discovered the automilk thing after shoving 4 cows into a partially completed crystalarium barn.

I've been having problems with this. The game stopped giving me Steam achievements but I'm not sure if it's because of the mods or not. From what little research I've done (first page of Google) some people have problems and other people don't.

Achievements are disabled when launching the game through anything other than the play button in your Steam library, such as a desktop or start menu shortcut or the separate mod API thing. I believe you can point Steam towards the latter to preserve achievements with mods, though.

So a few goons are doing the "No Joja No Pierre" challenge and I was wondering if it was even possible to get certain crops. According to the wiki, Mixed Seeds will never grow any of the berries or amaranth for example. Would it be possible to mod Mixed Seeds to grow any crops in season?

EDIT: Looks like the Traveling Cart carries every crop.

Technically you can catch him in the first month. You just need a minimum of 10 Fishing (7 with Dish O' The Sea).

However it feels near suicidal if you don't have the Iridium Rod and the Trap bait with 13 fishing.

The eggs sell for more than the slimes, I think. It's marginal either way.

Eventually you craft enough purple eggs to create a farm of grape-slimes. Then you cull half the herd every now and then to get a few Iridium.

There's a slime raising building similar to the barn. I've never seen the point either so I've never tried it, but it's there. I've heard rumors of possibly being able to breed purple slimes that can drop iridium.

This.

There's a chance to get a purple slime egg and those are supposedly semi-rare.

You then breed the purple slime with other slimes. The result may be another purple slime. Once you have a purple male and female. Kill the other slimes then breed purple slimes and kill some of them on a regular basis for the chance of finding iridium.

Does anyone know what gifts the various spouses will give based on whom they are? I am also doing the "no joja no pierre" challenge and I I thinking that I could marry a spouse that gifted various foods to put in a seed-maker to make up for the needed seeds to complete the community centre and the 21 star score. I I hoping to have it done in 4 years time if possible.

Also, is pierre the only one who sells the bouquet? That I the only exception I can see to the rule, unless I mod that as well into a different vendor...

Have to say, this challenge has me wracking my Do I rush to farming 9 to get the seed makers - or should I I I complete emily's bundle for one?

Maybe we should suggest this to C.A., in patch 1.2 add challenges (ie: a no-mining challenge, a no-eating food challenge, etc...)
