Each artifact may also be used in the [[Sewing Machine]].

==Artifact Troves==
 
Artifact Troves are artifact containers which can be purchased from the [[Desert Trader]] for 5 [[Omni Geode]]s. They also have a chance to drop from [[Haunted Skull]]s.
 
 
They must be processed at the [[Blacksmith]] to obtain the artifacts inside.  Clint charges {{Price|25}} to process each Artifact Trove.
 
 
Like with [[Minerals#Geodes|geodes]], The Blacksmith is unavailable for processing Artifact Troves during tool upgrades.

Collection

Entries are added upon finding the artifact. The artifact does not need to be donated to the Museum or shipped via the shipping box to count towards the collection.

Note that artifacts found in Fishing Treasure Chests, obtained by tilling soil in the mines, or found in Artifact Troves may not appear as found on the collections tab. Dragging the artifact outside the inventory window and allowing it to be taken back into inventory may correct this. Holding the artifact in inventory overnight may also correct this.

Note also that artifacts' descriptions appear on the collections tab as soon as they are found, even while the inventory description says "Gunther can tell you more about this if you donate it to the museum."

References

  1. The contents of an artifact spot are calculated by GameLocation::digUpArtifactSpot; the primary data source is ObjectInformation.xnb. 20% of the time a Lost Book is found (except on the Farm). Otherwise, each artifact is checked sequentially to see whether a random number is less than the chance specified by the input file; the first artifact that succeeds is the one found. One result of this algorithm is that the actual chance of finding a given artifact is smaller than the value in the input file, because it can only be found if the Lost Book check failed and all previous artifacts failed their tests.

  3. 3.0 3.1 3.2 3.3 3.4 3.5 3.6 3.7 3.8 The additional chance for this artifact is season-dependent. The maximum chance is in summer and fall. In winter, the chance is 50% less; in spring it is 6% less. The chance comes from a secondary input file, Locations.xnb, which is only used if all other sources fail.

History

  • 1.4: Fixed bug preventing certain artifacts from appearing in artifact spots.
  • 1.5: Bone Mill turns bone items, including bone artifacts, into fertilizer. Penny and the Dwarf now like all artifacts as gifts, all other NPCs now dislike instead of hate artifacts as gifts.
