For example: − <syntaxhighlight lang="js"> − "SomeEventId/": " − none/ − -1000 -1000/ − farmer 5 7 0/ − ... − " − </syntaxHighlight> − This can be also combined with the [[Modding:Event data#Comments|comment syntax]] to add notes.

This has no effect if the sound has already stopped playing on its own (or hasn't been started). If you started multiple sounds with the same ID, this will stop all of them (e.g. <code>startSound fuse/startSound fuse/stopSound fuse</code>). − By default the sound will stop immediately. For looping sounds, you can pass <samp>false</samp> to the {{o|immediate}} argument to stop the sound when it finishes playing the current iteration instead (e.g. <code>stopSound fuse false</code>). − |- − | <samp>temporaryAnimatedSprite ...</samp> − | Add a temporary animated sprite to the event, using these space-delimited fields: − + − ! field − | 0+ − + − − + − | <samp>rectangle</samp>+ − − | 5+ − + − − | 6+ − + − − | 7+ − + − − | 8–9+ − + − + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + − | 10+ − | <samp>flicker</samp>+ − | Causes the sprite to flicker in and out of view repeatedly.

Mods can check the list in C# (via <samp>Game1.player.locationsVisited</samp>) or [[Modding:Game state queries|game state queries]] (via <samp>PLAYER_VISITED_LOCATION</samp>). For pre-existing saves, the list is retroactively populated based on accessible locations, events seen, mail flags set, etc. − * Added menu queuing (via <samp>Game1.nextClickableMenu</samp> in C#).

That means the default save serializer can handle more types (e.g. all monsters), and it's easier to create custom serializers. − * Refactored many parts of the code to make it more moddable for C# mods. This includes marking all classes public, changing <samp>private</samp> members to <samp>protected</samp> or <samp>public</samp>, marking members <samp>virtual</samp>, rewriting or splitting code so it's easier to extend, etc. − * The <samp>startup_preferences</samp> file is now formatted to simplify troubleshooting. − * Fixed many cases where the game used <samp>Game1.player</samp> instead of the provided player. − − ==Breaking changes for C# mods== − '''This section only describes how this update may break existing mods.

SMAPI can still load .NET 5 mods fine, but you'll get a build error when compiling them. To update a C# mod: − <ol> − <li>Make sure you have [https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs Visual Studio Community 2022] or later. (Compiling .NET 6 with earlier versions of Visual Studio isn't officially supported.)</li> − <li>In Visual Studio, click ''Help > Check For Updates'' and install the latest version.</li> − <li>Fully exit Visual Studio.</li> − <li>Open each mod's <samp>.csproj</samp> file in a text editor, then find this line: − <syntaxhighlight lang="xml"> − <TargetFramework>net5.0</TargetFramework> − </syntaxhighlight> − − And change it to this: − <syntaxhighlight lang="xml"> − <TargetFramework>net6.0</TargetFramework> − − </li> − <li>Delete your solution's hidden <samp>.vs</samp> folder, and every project's <samp>bin</samp> and <samp>obj</samp> folders.</li> − <li>Reopen the solution in Visual Studio, click ''Build > Rebuild Solution'', and make sure it still loads into the game fine.</li> − </ol> − − ===Item ID changes=== − : ''See also: [[#Custom items|custom items in what's new]].'' − − The [[#Custom items|main <samp>Item</samp> properties have changed]]. To migrate existing code: − <ul> − <li>Don't use <samp>ParentSheetIndex</samp> to compare items. For example, <samp>item.ParentSheetIndex == 0</samp> will match both [[weeds]] and any custom item whose sprite is the first one in its custom spritesheet. You should compare items using [[#Custom items|their new <samp>ItemId</samp> and <samp>QualifiedItemId</samp> properties]] instead. For example, here's how to migrate various common forms: − − {| class="wikitable" − ! old code+ − ! new code+ + + + + − + − + + − + − + + − + − + − + − | <samp>item is Boots && item.ParentSheetIndex == 505</samp>+ − | <samp>item.QualifiedItemId == "(B)505"</samp>+ − |}</li>+ − <li>Don't assume item sprites are in the vanilla spritesheets. For example, instead of rendering <samp>Game1.objectSpriteSheet</samp> for an object, call <code>ItemRegistry.GetMetadata(item.QualifiedItemId).GetTexture()</code> to get its texture.</li> − <li>Creating items works just like before, except that you now specify the item's <samp>ItemId</samp> (''not'' <samp>QualifiedItemId</samp>) instead of its <samp>ParentSheetIndex</samp>. This is the same value for vanilla items. For example: − <syntaxhighlight lang="c#">+ − new Object("634", 1); // vanilla item+ − new Object("Example.ModId_Watermelon", 1); // custom item+ + + − + − You can also use the new <samp>ItemRegistry</samp> API to construct items from their <samp>QualifiedItemId</samp>:+ − + − + − Item item = ItemRegistry.Create("(B)505"); // Rubber Boots+ − + − </ul>+ − + − ===Other ID changes===+ − Many other things in the game now have unique string IDs too (including [[#Buff overhaul|buffs]], [[#String event IDs|events]], and fruit trees). To migrate existing code: + − + − * When referencing numeric IDs, you usually just need to convert them into a string (like <code>Game1.player.hasBuff("1590166")</code> or <code>Game1.player.eventsSeen.Contains("1590166")</code>).+ − * When creating buffs, see [[#Buff overhaul|buff overhaul]] for how to create buffs now.+ − * For pre-existing content pack data, see migration steps in the ''[[#Unique string IDs|unique string IDs]]'' section.+ − − ===Building and animal changes=== − : ''See also: [[#Build anywhere|build anywhere in what's new]].'' − − * Since all locations now allow buildings and animals, mod code which handles <samp>BuildableGameLocation</samp> and <samp>IAnimalLocation</samp> won't detect all buildable locations. You can replace them with <samp>location.IsBuildableLocation()</samp> (or just access <samp>location.buildings</samp> directly) and <samp>location.animals.Any()</samp> instead. Mods should no longer have any reference at all to <samp>BuildableGameLocation</samp> and <samp>IAnimalLocation</samp>. − * Since buildings can be built anywhere, you can no longer assume a building is on the farm. You can check the new <samp>building.buildingLocation</samp> field instead. − * You should review direct references to the farm (like <code>Game1.getFarm()</code> or <code>Game1.getLocationFromName("Farm")</code>) to see if it needs to be rewritten to allow other locations. − * <code>Utility.numSilos()</code> should no longer be used to calculate available hay, since it doesn't account for custom buildings with hay storage. Use <code>Game1.getFarm().GetHayCapacity()</code> instead. − * The <samp>Cat</samp> and <samp>Dog</samp> classes are now unused; all pets are now <samp>Pet</samp> directly. − − ===Player changes=== − : ''See also: [[#Buff overhaul|buff overhaul in what's new]].'' − − − − {| class="wikitable" − ! old field+ − ! how to migrate+ − + − + − + − + − + − + + − + − + − + − + − |}</li> − <li>Buffs are now recalculated automatically, and you can reset a buff by just reapplying it.

However if a content pack replaces an entire asset instead of editing, it's more likely to be affected like an XNB mod. − − ====Changed assets==== − Compatibility is broadly grouped into four categories: − * "'''✘ broken'''": mods will remove new content or significant changes, or the mod's intended changes will no longer work. Effects may range from display bugs to crashes, depending how the game uses that specific content. − * "✘ will remove changes": mods will remove minor changes in 1.6 (e.g. typo fixes). − * "✓ mostly unaffected": mods will only be affected if they replace the entire asset, or edit specific entries or fields. − * Blank: no expected impact for the vast majority of mods. − − {| class="wikitable" − |- − !rowspan="2"| content asset − !rowspan="2"| changes in 1.6 − !colspan="2"| compatibility for pre-1.6 mods − |- − !

{{/doc status|[[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID]]|done=true}}
Stardew Valley now uses ''unique string IDs'' throughout the code to identify data (like events, locations, items, NPCs, etc). For example, <code>Town</code> is the unique ID for the [[Pelican Town]] location; no other location can use that ID. The IDs are used for a wide range of purposes, from internal game logic to [[Modding:Content Patcher|content pack edits]].

====Behavior tweaks====
===Custom movie concessions===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Movie theater data]]|done=false}}
: ''See also: [[#Custom movies|custom movies]].''
You could already [[Modding:Movie theater data#Concession data|add/edit concessions]] sold in the [[Movie Theater|movie theater]], but conflicts were likely since each concession had an incrementing numeric ID which matched its position in the vanilla tilesheet.
Stardew Valley 1.6 addresses that with two changes:
<ul>
<li>The <samp>Id</samp> field is now a [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]].</li>
<li>You can now use a different texture with two new required fields:
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! effect
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>PreventTimePass</samp>
| <samp>Texture</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' A list of cases when the machine should be paused, so the timer on any item being produced doesn't decrement. Possible values:
| The asset name for the texture containing the concession's sprite.
|-
|-
| <samp>SpriteIndex</samp>
| The index within the <samp>Texture</samp> for the concession sprite, where 0 is the top-left sprite.
|-
| Pause when placed in an outside or inside location. For example, [[Bee House|bee houses]] don't work inside.
|}
|}
</li>
</ul>
For example, this content pack adds a new 'Pufferchick Pop' concession with a custom image:
{| class="wikitable"
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|<nowiki>
{
"Format": "</nowiki>{{Content Patcher version}}<nowiki>",
"Changes": [
{
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/Concessions",
{| class="wikitable"
"Entries": {
"{{ModId}}_PufferchickPop": {
"Id": "{{ModId}}_PufferchickPop", // must specify ID again when creating a new entry
"Name": "{{ModId}}_PufferchickPop", // best practice to match the ID, since it's sometimes used as an alternate ID
"DisplayName": "Pufferchick Pop",
"Description": "A cute cake pop shaped like a pufferchick.",
"Price": 25,
"Texture": "{{InternalAssetKey: assets/pufferchick-pop.png}}" // an image in your content pack
"SpriteIndex": 0
}
}
}
]
}</nowiki>|lang=javascript}}
===Custom museum donations & rewards===
{{/doc status|a new doc page|done=false}}
You can now add/edit the items which the [[museum]] gives back in rewards through the new <samp>Data/MuseumRewards</samp> data asset.
====Format====
The data asset consists of a string → model lookup, where...
* The key is a [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for the reward group.
* The value is a model with the fields listed below.
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! field
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>Sounds</samp>
| <samp>TargetContextTags</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The audio to play. This consists of a list of models with these fields:
| The items that must be donated to complete this reward group. The player must fulfill every entry in the list to unlock the reward. This consists of a list of models with these fields:
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! effect
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>Id</samp>
| <samp>Tag</samp>
| The [[#Custom audio|audio cue ID]] to play.
| The [[Modding:Context tags|context tag]] for the items to require.
|-
|-
| <samp>Delay</samp>
| <samp>Count</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The number of milliseconds until the sound should play. Default 0.
| The minimum number of items matching the context tags that must be donated.
|}
|}
For example, an entry with the tag <samp>forage_item</samp> and count 2 will require donating any two forage items.
Special case: an entry with the exact values <code>Tag: "", Count: -1</code> passes if the museum is complete (i.e. the player has donated the max number of items).
|-
|-
| <samp>ShakeDuration</samp>
| <samp>FlagOnCompletion</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' A duration in milliseconds during which the machine sprite should shake. Default none.
| ''(Optional if <samp>RewardItemIsSpecial</samp> is true)'' Whether to add the <samp>ID</samp> value to the player's received mail. This is used to track whether the player has collected the reward, and should almost always be true. If this is omitted and <samp>RewardItemIsSpecial</samp> is false, the player will be able collect the reward infinite times. Default false.
After the reward is collected, you can check this value using the <samp><nowiki>HasFlag</nowiki></samp> condition in [[Modding:Content Patcher|Content Patcher]].

See also [[Modding:Mail data|mail data]], [[#Custom items|custom items]], and [[#custom machines|custom machines]] to add the custom mail and items.
====Achievements====
The ''A Complete Collection'' [[Achievements|achievement]] is automatically adjusted to require any custom donations added too. This is based on the number of donated items though, so removing custom donations later may incorrectly mark the museum complete (since you may have donated enough items to meet the total required).
====Advanced logic====
===Custom fruit trees===

====Data format====
You can now add custom [[Fruit Trees|fruit trees]] by editing the revamped <samp>Data/fruitTrees</samp> asset. This consists of a string → model lookup, where...
* The key is the [[#Custom items|unqualified item ID]] for the sapling item in <samp>Data/Objects</samp>.

For example, this content pack adds a custom fruit tree, including [[#Custom items|custom items]] for the sapling and fruit:
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|<nowiki>

]
}</nowiki>|lang=javascript}}
|-
The fruit trees can then be added to the game by giving the player a sapling item in the usual ways (e.g. from [[#Custom shops|a shop]]).
====Fruit items====
For C# mods, the <samp>fruitsOnTree</samp> field (number of fruit on the tree) has been replaced by <samp>fruit</samp> (list of fruit items).
====Spawning fruit trees====
|-
Custom trees can be added to the game in two ways:
* Spawn them on [[Modding:Maps|map tiles]] when the location is created, using the new <samp>SpawnTree: fruit {{t|tree ID}} {{o|growth stage on location created}} {{o|growth stage on day-update regrowth}}</samp> tile property. This must be added on the <samp>Paths</samp> layer, which must also have tile index 34 from the <samp>paths</samp> tilesheet.
* Or give the player a seed item in the usual ways (e.g. from [[#Custom shops|a shop]], [[Modding:Mail data|mail letter]], etc).
===Custom movie concessions===
===Custom objects===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Items#Objects]]|done=false}}
You could already [[Modding:Movie theater data#Concession data|add/edit concessions]] sold in the [[Movie Theater|movie theater]], but conflicts were likely since each concession had an incrementing numeric ID which matched its position in the vanilla tilesheet.
You can now create/edit objects (the main item type) by editing the new <samp>Data/Objects</samp> asset, which replaces the previous slash-delimited <samp>Data/objectInformation</samp>.
Besides the format change, this adds...
<ul>
* support for custom textures;
<li>The <samp>Id</samp> field is now a [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]].</li>
* revamped geode drops with support for conditions, probabilities, and item queries;
<li>You can now use a different texture with two new required fields:
* expanded food/drink buffs (e.g. set a custom buff ID, add a custom buff icon, etc);
* context tags (moved from the former <samp>Data/ObjectContextTags</samp> asset);
* [[#Custom data fields|custom fields]] to let framework mods support additional features.
This consists of a string → model lookup, where...
* The key is the unqualified [[#Custom items|item ID]].
* The value is a model with the fields listed below.

| ''common fields''
| <samp>RequireToolId</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' If set, the [[#Custom items|qualified or unqualified item ID]] for the tool that must be in the player's inventory for the upgrade to appear. The tool will be destroyed when the upgrade is purchased.
|-
If set to an [[Modding:Item queries|item query]] which returns multiple items, one of them will be selected at random.
| <samp>TradeItemId</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' If set, the [[#Custom items|qualified or unqualified item ID]] for an extra item that must be traded to upgrade the tool. (For example, many vanilla tools need metal bars.)
|-
|-
| <samp>Chance</samp>
| <samp>TradeItemAmount</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The probability that the item will be dropped if the other fields match, as a decimal value between 0 (never) and 1 (always). Default 1.
| ''(Optional)'' The number of <samp>TradeItemId</samp> required. Defaults to 1.
|-
|-
| <samp>SetFlagOnPickup</samp>
| <samp>Condition</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The mail flag to set for the current player when this drop is picked up.
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] which indicates whether this upgrade is available. Defaults to always true.
|-
|}
For consistency, vanilla drops mostly use these values:
For example, these are equivalent to the Steel Axe's upgrade settings:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"UpgradeFrom": [
{
"RequireToolId": "(T)CopperAxe",
</ul>
"Price": 5000,
"TradeItemId": "(O)335", // Iron Bar
"TradeItemAmount": 5
}
]
</syntaxhighlight>
If both fields are specified, each geode will choose between them with an equal 50% chance. If <samp>GeodeDrops</samp> is specified but no entries match, the geode will use the <samp>GeodeDropsDefaultItems</samp> regardless of whether it's true.
If you want the tool to always be available, you can just omit the conditions. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"UpgradeFrom": [
{
"Price": 5000
}
]
</syntaxhighlight>
Note that Clint needs a few days to smith the new tool. If you want to sell the tool directly, [[#Custom shops|add it to a regular shop]] instead.

| {{name|Gold Bar|5}}
|}
|-
|-
| 4
| <samp>CustomFields</samp>
| {{price|25000}}
| The [[#Custom data fields|custom fields]] for this entry.
|}
|}
For example, Iridium Axe specifies this value:
====Spawning wild trees====
Custom trees can be added to the game in two ways:
* Spawn them on [[Modding:Maps|map tiles]] when the location is created, using the new <samp>SpawnTree: wild {{t|tree ID}} {{o|growth stage on location created}} {{o|growth stage on day-update regrowth}}</samp> tile property. This must be added on the <samp>Paths</samp> layer, which must also have tile index 34 from the <samp>paths</samp> tilesheet.
* Or give the player a seed item in the usual ways (e.g. from [[#Custom shops|a shop]], [[Modding:Mail data|mail letter]], etc).
===Default recipes===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Recipe data]]|done=false}}
You can now have [[Modding:Recipe data|crafting and cooking recipes]] that are learned automatically by setting the condition field to <samp>default</samp>. Any missing default recipes will be learned on day start.
For example, here's the chest entry from <samp>Data/CraftingRecipes</samp>:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"ConventionalUpgradeFrom": "(T)GoldAxe"
"Chest": "388 50/Home/130/true/default/"
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight>
===Global inventories===
C# mods can now set a <samp>chest.GlobalInventoryId</samp> field to make it share a global inventory with every other chest having the same ID. This replaces the equivalent hardcoded logic for [[Junimo Chest|Junimo chests]], which now just default to a <samp>"JunimoChests"</samp> global inventory ID. For example, this can be used to have multiple Junimo chest networks or make other containers share inventory.
C# mods can also use this to store items for other mod purposes, by using <samp>Game1.player.team.globalInventories</samp> or <samp>Game1.player.team.GetOrCreateGlobalInventory(id)</samp> directly.
===Hats on aquarium fish===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Fish data]]|done=false}}
Custom [[Modding:Fish data|fish in aquariums]] can now wear [[hats]], just like vanilla [[Sea Urchin|sea urchins]]. This can be enabled by specifying a new field in <samp>Data/AquariumFish</samp>:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
</syntaxhighlight>
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! index

|-
|-
| <samp>ModData</samp>
| <samp>campfire_item</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The mod data values to set when the tool is created, accessible in C# code via the <samp>tool.modData</samp> dictionary. For example:
| Marks the item as a [[campfire]]. If the item also has the <samp>torch_item</samp> context tag, when it's placed in the world and turned on...
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
* campfire flames are drawn over it;
* if the item is [[Modding:Items#Big craftables|big craftable]], light is emitted from its center instead of the top.
|-
| <samp>fish_pond_ignore</samp>
</syntaxhighlight>
| Prevents players from adding this fish to [[Fish Pond|fish ponds]], even if it would otherwise match an entry in <samp>Data/FishPondData</samp>.
|-
| <samp>geode_crusher_ignored</samp>
| Prevents breaking this item open in a [[Geode Crusher|geode crusher]], even if the item has geode fields in [[#Custom objects|<samp>Data/Objects</samp>]].
|-
| <samp>item_type_{{t|type}}</samp>
| For an [[Modding:Items#Objects|object-type item]], the type value from the 'type and category' field. (Non-object items always have the exact tag <samp>item_type_</samp> with nothing after the last underscore.) This is automatic and shouldn't be set manually. The tag is checked in a few places (''e.g.'' the [[museum]] to check if an item is an artifact or mineral), but most of the game won't be affected.
|-
| <samp>museum_donatable</samp><br /><samp>not_museum_donatable</samp>
| Set whether the item can be donated to the [[museum]], overriding the vanilla logic.
|-
|-
| <samp>SetProperties</samp>
| <samp>not_giftable</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Set the value of arbitrary properties on the tool class. For example, this would disable the tool animation and require no stamina:
| Prevents players from gifting this item to NPCs, who'll ignore the item entirely (e.g. as if you were holding a tool).
This only affects gift-giving, it doesn't affect non-gift logic like quest goals or special order objectives. If the NPC also has a <samp>reject_*</samp> dialogue for the item, the dialogue takes priority.
|-
| <samp>not_placeable</samp><br /><samp>placeable</samp>
| Sets whether the item can be placed on the ground.
|-
| <samp>prevent_loss_on_death</samp>
| Indicates the item can't be [[Adventurer's Guild#Item Recovery Service|lost when the player dies]].
|-
| <samp>sign_item</samp>
| Marks the item as a [[Crafting#Signs|sign]], which lets player display items on it or place it on a [[Fish Pond|fish pond]] to show the fish count.
|-
| <samp>torch_item</samp>
| Marks the item as a [[torch]], which lets the player turn it on/off to emit light.
See also <samp>campfire_item</samp>.

| ''(Optional)'' If set, the specific season when this texture should apply. For more complex conditions, see <samp>Condition</samp>.
| Marks the item as a [[tapper]] or [[Heavy Tapper|heavy tapper]].
|-
|-
| <samp>Condition</samp>
| <samp>tapper_multiplier_{{t|multiplier}}</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] which indicates whether this texture should be applied for a tree. Defaults to always enabled.
| The multiplier applied to the tapper production speed. For example, <samp>2</samp> will make items take half their base time (''i.e.'' each item will finish in <sup>base time</sup>/<sub>speed multiplier</sub>). Defaults to 1 if omitted.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! context tag
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>SeedPlantable</samp>
| <samp>fish_legendary</samp><br /><samp>fish_legendary_family</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether the seed can be planted by the player. If this is false, it can only be spawned automatically via map properties. Default true.
| Marks the fish as a [[Fish#Legendary Fish|legendary fish]] or [[Quests#Extended Family|legendary fish family]]. These are purely informational; the legendary fish behavior is determined by data fields like <samp>CatchLimit</samp> or <samp>IsBossFish</samp> in [[#Custom locations|<samp>Data/Locations</samp>]].
|-
|-
| <samp>GrowthChance</samp>
| <samp>geode</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The probability each day that the tree will grow to the next stage without [[Tree Fertilizer|tree fertilizer]], as a value from 0 (will never grow) to 1 (will grow every day). Defaults to 0.2 (20% chance).
| ''(Added automatically)'' Marks the item as a [[Minerals#Geodes|geode]] item, which can be broken open at [[Blacksmith|Clint's blacksmith shop]] or using a [[Geode Crusher|geode crusher]]. This is added automatically if the geode fields are present in [[#Custom objects|<samp>Data/Objects</samp>]].
|-
|-
| <samp>FertilizedGrowthChance</samp>
| <samp>id_{{t|item id}}</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Equivalent to <samp>GrowthChance</samp>, but with [[Tree Fertilizer|tree fertilizer]]. Defaults to 1 (100% chance).
| ''(Added automatically)'' The [[#Custom items|qualified item ID]], like <samp>id_(o)128</samp>. This can be used to match or exclude an item by ID using context tags. Any spaces in the ID are replaced with underscores, and single quotes are removed.
|-
|-
| <samp>SeedSpreadChance</samp>
| <samp>is_machine</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The probability each day that the tree will plant a seed on a nearby tile, as a value from 0 (never) to 1 (always). This only applied in locations where trees plant seeds (e.g. farms in vanilla). Default 0.15 (15% chance).
| ''(Added automatically)'' Indicates the item has [[#Custom machines|machine logic]]. This is added automatically based on <samp>Data/Machines</samp>.
|-
|-
| <samp>SeedOnShakeChance</samp>
| <samp>machine_input</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The probability each day that the tree will produce a seed that will drop when the tree is shaken, as a value from 0 (never) to 1 (always). Default 0.05 (5% chance).
| ''(Added automatically)'' Whether the item is a machine which accepts items from the player. This is added automatically based on the machine's fields in <samp>Data/Machines</samp>:
* if <samp>HasInput</samp> is true;
* ''or'' if any output rules have an <samp>ItemPlacedInMachine</samp> trigger.
|-
|-
| <samp>SeedOnChopChance</samp>
| <samp>machine_output</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The probability that a seed will drop when the player chops down the tree, as a value from 0 (never) to 1 (always). Default 0.75 (75% chance).
| ''(Added automatically)'' Whether the item is a machine which produces items for the player to collect. This is added automatically based on the machine's fields in <samp>Data/Machines</samp>:
* if <samp>HasOutput</samp> is true;
* ''or'' if it has any output rules.
|}
====ItemContextTagManager class====
For C# mods, 1.6 adds a new <samp>ItemContextTagManager</samp> class which simplifies working with [[Modding:Items#Context tags|item context tags]] and reduces repeated code.
This provides a few utility methods:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! method
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>IsLeafy</samp>
| <code>GetBaseContextTags(id)</code>
| Get the base context tags for an item based on its raw data in <samp>Data/Objects</samp> or <samp>Data/BigCraftables</samp>. This doesn't include dynamic tags added that are based on instance info (like quality), which you can get using <code>item.GetContextTags()</code>.
|-
|-
| <samp>IsLeafyInWinter</samp>
| <code>DoesTagQueryMatch(query, tags)</code>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether <samp>IsLeafy</samp> also applies in winter. Default false.
| Get whether a context tag query matches the given tags. For example, <code>ItemContextTagManager.DoesTagQueryMatch("bone_item, !fossil_item", item.GetContextTags())</code> returns true if the item is a bone item but not a fossil (like the [[Bone Flute]]).
|-
|-
| <samp>GrowsInWinter</samp>
| <code>DoAllTagsMatch(requiredTags, actualTags)</code><br /><code>DoAnyTagsMatch(requiredTags, actualTags)</code>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether the tree can grow in winter (subject to <samp>GrowthChance</samp> or <samp>FertilizedGrowthChance</samp>). Default false.
| Get whether every (<samp>DoAllTagsMatch</samp>) or at least one (<samp>DoAnyTagsMatch</samp) required tag matches the actual item tags. This supports negated required tags like <samp>"!fossil_item"</samp> too.
|-
|-
| <samp>IsStumpDuringWinter</samp>
| <code>DoesTagMatch(requiredTag, actualTags)</code>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether the tree is reduced to a stump in winter and regrows in spring, like the vanilla [[Trees#Mushroom Tree|mushroom tree]]. Default false.
| Get whether a single tag matches the actual item tags. This supports negated required tags like <samp>"!fossil_item"</samp> too.
|-
|-
| <samp>AllowWoodpeckers</samp>
| <code>SanitizeContextTag(tag)</code>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether woodpeckers can spawn on the tree. Default true.
| ''(Specialized)'' Replace characters that may appear in item names so they're valid in context tags. For example, <code>SanitizeContextTag("Sam's Boombox")</code> returns <samp>sams_boombox</samp>.
|}
====Other context tag changes====
|-
* Context tags are now case-insensitive.
* or one of <samp>12</samp> (brown/woody), <samp>100001</samp> (white), <samp>100001</samp> (light green), <samp>100002</samp> (light blue), <samp>100003</samp> (red), <samp>100004</samp> (yellow), <samp>100005</samp> (black), <samp>100006</samp> (gray), or <samp>100007</samp> (charcoal / dim gray).
===Inventory class===
For C# mods, 1.6 adds a new <samp>Inventory</samp> class to manage a list of items. This is used for the <samp>Farmer.items</samp> and <samp>Chest.items</samp> fields. It implements <samp>IList<Item></samp>, so most existing code should still work fine.
This consists of a list of models with these fields:
This has three main benefits:
<ul>
<li>It has methods to simplify many common operations. For example:
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! field
! method
! effect
! effect
|-
|-
| ''common fields''
| <code>HasAny()</code>
| See [[Modding:Item queries#Item spawn fields|item spawn fields]] for the generic item fields supported for chop drops.
| Get whether the inventory contains any items (ignoring empty slots).
|-
|-
| <samp>Season</samp>
| <code>CountItemStacks()</code>
| ''(Optional)'' If set, the item only applies if the tree's location is in this season.
| Get the number of item stacks in the inventory (ignoring empty slots).
|-
|-
| <samp>Chance</samp>
| <code>ContainsId(id)</code>
| ''(Optional)'' The probability that the item will drop, as a value between 0 (never drops) and 1 (always drops). Default 1 (100% chance).
| Get whether the inventory contains any item with the given qualified or unqualified item ID.
|-
|-
| <samp>ContinueOnDrop</samp>
| <code>ContainsId(id, minCount)</code>
| ''(Optional)'' If this item is dropped, whether to continue as if it hadn't been dropped for the remaining drop candidates. Default false.
| Get whether the inventory contains items with the given qualified or unqualified item ID, and their combined stack size is at least <samp>minCount</samp>.
|-
|-
| <samp>ChopItems</samp>
| <code>CountId(id)</code>
| ''(Optional)'' The additional items to drop when the tree is chopped down. All matching items are dropped.
| Get the combined stack size of all items with the given qualified or unqualified item ID.
|-
|-
| <code>GetById(id)</code>
| Get a list of items in the inventory with the given qualified or unqualified item ID.
|-
|-
| ''common fields''
| <code>ReduceId(id, count)</code>
| See [[Modding:Item queries#Item spawn fields|item spawn fields]] for the generic item fields supported for chop drops.
| Remove the given number of items matching the given qualified or unqualified item ID. This reduces the stack size for matching items until a total of <samp>count</samp> have been removed, and clears any slots which reach a stack size of zero.
|}</li>
<li>Many common operations have been unified, so previously player-only methods can now be used with chests too.</li>
<li>It has an internal index by item ID, so operations like <code>items.ContainsId("(O)128")</code> are much more efficient since they no longer iterate the list.</li>
</ul>
This replaces some previous methods:

|-
| <code>consumeObject(id, count)</code>
| Use <code>items.ReduceId(id, count)</code>.
|-
| <code>removeItemsFromInventory(id, count)</code>
|

| ''(Optional)'' The probability that this entry is selected, as a value between 0 (never drops) and 1 (always drops). Default 1 (100% chance).
| This was somewhat specialized and shouldn't be called by mod code, but the equivalent would be <code>(Object.autoLoadChest ?? player.items).CountId(id)</code>. See also notes for <samp>Farmer.getTallyOfObject</samp>.

It implements a new <samp>IInventory</samp> interface, which lets mods pass their own implementations to code which works on inventories.
===Furniture changes===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Items#Furniture]]|done=false}}
<ul>
<li>[[Modding:Items#Furniture|<samp>Data/furniture</samp>]] no longer has language variants. Translations were moved into <samp>Strings/Furniture</samp>.</li>
<li>
There are a few changes in [[Modding:Items#Furniture|<samp>Data/furniture</samp>]]:
<ul>
<li>Field index 6 is now placement restrictions and field index 7 is now display name. The display name field is no longer omitted in English.</li>
<li>Field index 7 (display name) now allows [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable strings]].</li>
<li>Added new fields:

===Other item changes for C# mods===
* Placed object changes:
** Every placed object now has a <samp>Location</samp> property set to the location which contains it. This removes location parameters from many object methods.
** Setting an object's tile position through <samp>obj.TileLocation</samp> now recalculcates its collision box automatically. (Setting it through the <samp>tileLocation</samp> net field directly won't though.)
** The <samp>obj.IsScarecrow()</samp> and <samp>GetScarecrowRadius()</samp> methods now work for non-bigcraftable objects too.
* Clothing changes:
** <samp>Clothes.clothesType</samp> is now an enum field.
** Clothing is no longer gender-specific. This renames <samp>indexInTileSheetMale</samp> to <samp>indexInTileSheet</samp>, obsoletes <samp>indexInTileSheetFemale</samp>, and converts gender-variant clothing into regular items.
** Removed unused <samp>ClothesType.ACCESSORY</samp> value.
** <samp>Farmer.pants</samp> and <samp>Farmer.shirt</samp> now store the item ID instead of the sprite index.
** In <samp>Data/TailoringRecipes</samp>, added a <samp>CraftingIdFeminine</samp> field which overrides <samp>CraftingId</samp> for female characters.
* Crop changes:
** Added <samp>Game1.cropData</samp> to read crop info without constantly reloading the <samp>Data/Crops</samp> asset.
** Removed most crop fields which only mirror the data (like <samp>harvestMethod</samp> or <samp>seasonsToGrowIn</samp>). Mods can get the info through <samp>crop.GetData()</samp> instead.
** Partly de-hardcoded fertilizer logic. Almost all fertilizer logic is now centralized into a new patchable set of <samp>HoeDirt</samp> methods (see list below). The only fertilizer logic that's still embedded elsewhere is the interaction errors in <samp>Utility.tryToPlaceItem</samp>.
** HoeDirt.fertilizer.Value is now set to <samp>null</samp> when there is no fertilizer. Both qualified and unqualified IDs should be expected.
** Removed <samp>crop.InferSeedIndex()</samp>. This was used to support old crops, which are now fixed by a save migration instead.
* Tool changes:
** Fixed various logic not handling custom tool upgrade levels.
<ul>
<li>Other item logic:<ul>
<li>Simplified the constructors for many item types, particularly <samp>Object</samp>.</li>
<li>[[Honey]] items now have their <samp>preserve</samp> field set to a new <samp>Honey</samp> type (instead of null).</li>
<li>The <samp>Object.performObjectDropInAction</samp> method now applies the <samp>probe</samp> argument much more consistently. This only affects method calls with <samp>probe: true</samp>.</li>
<li>The <samp>Item.salePrice()</samp> method now has option to get the price without [[Multiplayer#Profit margins|profit margins]].</li>
<li>Added new fields & methods:

| Set the furniture's position and rotation (<samp>SetPlacement</samp>) or held object (<samp>SetHeldObject</samp>). The latter will initialize the held object's tile position to match the furniture instance.
===Context tag changes===
These are used by the game to initialize furniture in one go. For example:
====New context tags====
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
// oak table holding decorative bowl
Furniture table = ItemRegistry
.Create<Furniture>("(F)1120")
.SetPlacement(5, 4, 0)
.SetHeldObject(ItemRegistry.Create<Furniture>("(F)1364"));

|-
|-
| <samp>fish_pond_ignore</samp>
| <samp>TryAddFruit()</samp>
| Prevents players from adding this fish to [[Fish Pond|fish ponds]], even if it would otherwise match an entry in <samp>Data/FishPondData</samp>.

|-
|-

|-
|-
| <samp>item_type_{{t|type}}</samp>
| <samp>Object</samp>
| For an [[Modding:Items#Objects|object-type item]], the type value from the 'type and category' field. (Non-object items always have the exact tag <samp>item_type_</samp> with nothing after the last underscore.) This is automatic and shouldn't be set manually. The tag is checked in a few places (''e.g.'' the [[museum]] to check if an item is an artifact or mineral), but most of the game won't be affected.
| <samp>GetBoundingBox()</samp><br /><samp>GetBoundingBoxAt(x, y)</samp>
| Get the pixel collision area for the item placed in the world. These replace the former <samp>getBoundingBox(position)</samp> method.
|-
|-
| <samp>museum_donatable</samp><br /><samp>not_museum_donatable</samp>
| <samp>Tool</samp>
| Set whether the item can be donated to the [[museum]], overriding the vanilla logic.
| <samp>isScythe()</samp>
| Equivalent to the previous <samp>MeleeWeapon</samp> method, to simplify common code and avoid needing to special-case <samp>MeleeWeapon</samp> items.
|-
|-
| <samp>not_giftable</samp>
|rowspan="3"| <samp>Tree</samp>
| Prevents players from gifting this item to NPCs, who'll ignore the item entirely (e.g. as if you were holding a tool).

|-
| <samp>not_placeable</samp><br /><samp>placeable</samp>
| <samp>GetMaxSizeHere</samp>
| Sets whether the item can be placed on the ground.
| Get the maximum size the tree can grow in its current position (e.g. accounting for nearby trees blocking growth).
|-
|-
| <samp>prevent_loss_on_death</samp>
| <samp>IsGrowthBlockedByNearbyTree</samp>
| Indicates the item can't be [[Adventurer's Guild#Item Recovery Service|lost when the player dies]].
| Get whether growth is blocked because it's too close to another fully-grown tree.
|-
|}
| <samp>sign_item</samp>
</li>
| Marks the item as a [[Crafting#Signs|sign]], which lets player display items on it or place it on a [[Fish Pond|fish pond]] to show the fish count.
<li>Modularized <samp>Object.CheckForAction</samp> to simplify mod patches.</li>
<li>Reworked <samp>Item.getOne()</samp> implementation to avoid common pitfalls. (This only affects mods with custom item classes, or which patch <samp>Item.getOne</samp> or <samp>Item._GetOneFrom</samp>.)</li>
<li>Fixed fruit trees forgetting the growth stage set in their constructor when they're updated overnight.</li>
</ul>
===Other item changes===
* Added per-object display names (''e.g.'' for custom flavored items). See the <samp>ObjectDisplayName</samp> [[Modding:Item queries#Item spawn fields|item spawn field]], or <samp>object.displayNameFormat</samp> in C#.
* [[Ginger Island#Gem Birds|Item pedestals]] are now normal item, so you can spawn them using a mod like CJB Item Spawner to display items.
* Added optional <samp>Condition</samp> [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] field to <samp>Data/SpecialOrders</samp>.
* Item data changes:
** The display name field now exists in English too for <samp>Data/Boots</samp>, <samp>Data/Bundles</samp>, <samp>Data/CookingRecipes</samp>, <samp>Data/CraftingRecipes</samp>, <samp>Data/Furniture</samp>, <samp>Data/Hats</samp>, and <samp>Data/Weapons</samp>.
** The randomly spawned [[The Farm#Stone|stones]], [[The Farm#Wood|twigs]], and [[weeds]] have been formalized into ''litter''. They all now have object type <samp>Litter</samp>, [[Modding:Items#Categories|category]] -999 (<samp>StardewValley.Object.litterCategory</samp>), a relevant display name/description (like ''Gold Stone'' & ''Break apart to obtain gold ore'' instead of ''Stone'' & ''...''), a price of 0 (not sellable), and edibility of -300 (inedible). This also adds all mine ore nodes to <samp>Data/Objects</samp>, so the game no longer creates invalid items to show their sprite. (Doing so in 1.6 will now show an Error Item sprite instead.)
** [[Honey]] items now have the <samp>honey_item</samp> context tag.
** Shirts no longer have a dynamic numeric ID range; every valid shirt is now listed in [[#Custom shirts|<samp>Data/Shirts</samp>]].
** You can now apply a custom buff ID when the item is eaten, via <samp>Data/Objects</samp>'s <samp>Buff</samp> field.
** The type field in <samp>Data/Objects</samp> is no longer checked using substring matching (e.g. the game now uses <code>data.Type == "Fish"</code> instead of <code>typeAndCategory.Contains("Fish")</code>), which may impact mods which depended on that undocumented behavior.
* Crop changes:
** Paddy crops now recheck for nearby water each day, so they'll update if you add/remove a building with water or change the map layout.
** In <samp>Data/Crops</samp>, each harvest option is now self-contained. For example, you can set <samp>HarvestMinStack</samp> without <samp>ExtraHarvestChance</samp>.
* Fish changes:
** <samp>Data/Fish</samp> is no longer translated, so there's only one <samp>Data/Fish.xnb</samp> field. Fish display names are now taken from <samp>Data/Objects</samp>.
** Added a new field (index 13) in <samp>Data/Fish</samp>, which sets whether the fish can be selected for the first-catch tutorial.
* Recipe changes in <samp>Data/CookingRecipes</samp> and <samp>Data/CraftingRecipes</samp>:
** These assets no longer have language variants.
** The display name now supports [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable strings]].
** The display name can now be left blank to get it from the first item in the output list.
* Other item logic:
** Missing recipes that should already be unlocked are now added to the player automatically on save load.
** <samp>Data/Bundles</samp> is now loaded later, so content packs can edit it reliably.</samp>
** Chests with <samp>fridge: true</samp> are now treated as mini-fridges for the cooking menu.
** Gift boxes can now contain multiple items.
** Fixed furniture drawn over sitting players if it has no front texture.
** Fixed tool being upgraded by Clint not affected by recursive item search logic.
** Fixed <samp>tool.getOne()</samp> not copying the tool name.
** Fixed cooking menu constantly creating hovered item if the item/recipe names don't match.
==What's new for locations & weather==
===Custom locations===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Location data]]|done=true}}
You can now add/edit locations by editing the revamped <samp>Data/Locations</samp> asset. This makes nearly everything in the location configurable — display name, default warp arrival tile, how the location is created, artifact spots / fish / forage / weeds, music, etc.
See [[Modding:Location data]] for docs on the new data format.
===Custom location contexts===
|}
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Location data]] or a new doc page|done=false}}
====Vanilla contexts====
* The game previously had two hardcoded location context enums: <samp>Default</samp> (for the valley) and <samp>Island</samp> (for [[Ginger Island]]). These have been replaced with data models which define the location context settings, loaded from the <samp>Data/LocationContexts</samp> asset.
* [[The Desert|The desert]] is now part of a new <samp>Desert</samp> context (instead of <samp>Default</samp>). Some of the previously hardcoded desert logic (like always sunny weather) is now just part of the context data in <samp>Data/LocationContexts</samp>.
====Format====
Custom contexts can be created by editing the new <samp>Data/LocationContexts</samp> asset, and setting the context name in the location's <samp>LocationContext</samp> [[Modding:Maps|map property]].
The data asset consists of a string → model lookup, where the key matches the <samp>Name</samp> field and the value is a model with these fields:

These are purely informational; the legendary fish behavior is determined by data fields like <samp>CatchLimit</samp> or <samp>IsBossFish</samp> in [[#Custom locations|<samp>Data/Locations</samp>]].
| ''(Optional)'' Whether a [[Rain Totem|rain totem]] can be used to force rain in this context tomorrow. If false, using a rain totem here will show a "''this item can't be used here''" message instead.
|-
| <samp>RainTotemAffectsContext</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' If set, using a rain totem here will change the weather in the given context ID. For example, rain totems in the desert change weather in the valley.
|-
|-
| <samp>geode</samp>
| <samp>MaxPassOutCost</samp>
| ''(Added automatically)'' Marks the item as a [[Minerals#Geodes|geode]] item, which can be broken open at [[Blacksmith|Clint's blacksmith shop]] or using a [[Geode Crusher|geode crusher]]. This is added automatically if the geode fields are present in [[#Custom objects|<samp>Data/Objects</samp>]].
| ''(Optional)'' When the player passes out (due to [[energy|exhaustion]] or at 2am) in this context, the maximum amount of [[gold]] lost. If omitted or set to <samp>-1</samp>, uses the same value as the <samp>Default</samp> context ({{price|1000}} by default).
|-
|-
| <samp>id_{{t|item id}}</samp>
| <samp>PassOutMail</samp>
| ''(Added automatically)'' The [[#Custom items|qualified item ID]], like <samp>id_(o)128</samp>. This can be used to match or exclude an item by ID using context tags. Any spaces in the ID are replaced with underscores, and single quotes are removed.
| ''(Optional)'' When the player passes out (due to [[energy|exhaustion]] or at 2am) in this context, the possible [[Modding:Mail data|letter IDs]] to add to their mailbox (if they haven't received it before). If multiple letters are valid, one will be chosen randomly (unless one specifies <samp>SkipRandomSelection</samp>).
This consists of a list of models with these fields:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! field
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>machine_input</samp>
| <samp>Id</samp>
| ''(Added automatically)'' Whether the item is a machine which accepts items from the player. This is added automatically based on the machine's fields in <samp>Data/Machines</samp>:
| The [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for this entry in the list.
* if <samp>HasInput</samp> is true;
|-
| <samp>Mail</samp>
| The [[Modding:Mail data|letter ID]] to add.
The game will look for an existing letter ID in <samp>Data/mail</samp> in this order (where {{t|billed}} is <samp>Billed</samp> if they lost [[gold]] or <samp>NotBilled</samp> otherwise, and {{t|gender}} is <samp>Female</samp> or <samp>Male</samp>):
* <samp>{{t|letter id}}_{{t|billed}}_{{t|gender}}</samp>
* <samp>{{t|letter id}}_{{t|billed}}</samp>
* <samp>{{t|letter id}}</samp>
If no match is found in <samp>Data/mail</samp>, the game will send <samp>passedOut2</samp> instead.
If the mail ID starts with <samp>passedOut</samp>, <samp>{0}</samp> in the letter text will be replaced with the gold amount lost, and it won't appear in the [[collections]] page.
|-
| <samp>MaxPassOutCost</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The maximum amount of [[gold]] lost. This is applied after the context's <samp>MaxPassOutCost</samp> (i.e. the context's value is used to calculate the random amount, then this field caps the result). Defaults to unlimited.
|-
| <samp>Condition</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] which indicates whether this entry is active. Defaults to always true.
|-
|-
| <samp>machine_output</samp>
| <samp>SkipRandomSelection</samp>
| ''(Added automatically)'' Whether the item is a machine which produces items for the player to collect. This is added automatically based on the machine's fields in <samp>Data/Machines</samp>:
| ''(Optional)'' If true, send this mail if the <samp>Condition</samp> matches instead of choosing a random valid mail. Default false.
|}
|}
|-
| <samp>PassOutLocations</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' When the player passes out (due to [[energy|exhaustion]] or at 2am) in this context ''and'' they started the day in a different location context, the locations where they'll wake up. (If the player started the day in the same context, they'll wake up in the last bed they slept in instead.)
If the selected location doesn't contain a bed and doesn't have the [[#New map properties|<samp>AllowWakeUpWithoutBed</samp> map property]], the player will wake up in the farmhouse instead.

|-
| <code>GetBaseContextTags(id)</code>
| <samp>Id</samp>
| Get the base context tags for an item based on its raw data in <samp>Data/Objects</samp> or <samp>Data/BigCraftables</samp>. This doesn't include dynamic tags added that are based on instance info (like quality), which you can get using <code>item.GetContextTags()</code>.
| The [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for this entry in the list.
|-
|-
| <code>DoesTagQueryMatch(query, tags)</code>
| <samp>Location</samp>
| Get whether a context tag query matches the given tags. For example, <code>ItemContextTagManager.DoesTagQueryMatch("bone_item, !fossil_item", item.GetContextTags())</code> returns true if the item is a bone item but not a fossil (like the [[Bone Flute]]).
| The internal location name.
|-
|-
| <code>DoAllTagsMatch(requiredTags, actualTags)</code><br /><code>DoAnyTagsMatch(requiredTags, actualTags)</code>
| <samp>Position</samp>
| Get whether every (<samp>DoAllTagsMatch</samp>) or at least one (<samp>DoAnyTagsMatch</samp) required tag matches the actual item tags. This supports negated required tags like <samp>"!fossil_item"</samp> too.
| The ''default'' tile position within the location, specified as an object with <samp>X</samp> and <samp>Y</samp> fields. If the location has any bed furniture, they'll be placed in the first bed found instead.
|-
|-
| <code>DoesTagMatch(requiredTag, actualTags)</code>
| <samp>Condition</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] which indicates whether this entry is active. Defaults to always applied.
| ''(Specialized)'' Replace characters that may appear in item names so they're valid in context tags. For example, <code>SanitizeContextTag("Sam's Boombox")</code> returns <samp>sams_boombox</samp>.
|}
|}
If no locations are specified or none match, the player will wake up in their bed at home.
|-
| <samp>ReviveLocations</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' If the player just got knocked out in combat, the location names where they'll wake up.

===Custom garbage cans===
{{/doc status|a new doc page|done=false}}
====Format====
You can now add or edit [[Garbage Can|garbage cans]] on any map by editing the new <samp>Data/GarbageCans</samp> asset (see examples below).
The asset consists of a data model with these fields:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! field
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>IsInSeason(location)</samp>
| <samp>DefaultBaseChance</samp>
| Whether the crop can grow in the location's current season (or true if crops ignore seasons in the location, like the [[greenhouse]]).
| The probability that an item will be found when searching garbage cans, as a value between 0 (never) and 1 (always). If the probability check fails, only items that set <samp>IgnoreBaseChance</samp> can spawn. This can be overridden by the per-garbage-can <samp>BaseChance</samp> field. Default 0.2.
|-
|-
| rowspan="8"| <samp>HoeDirt</samp>
| <samp>BeforeAll</samp><br /><samp>AfterAll</samp>
| <samp>HasFertilizer()</samp>
| The items to prepend (<samp>BeforeAll</samp>) or append (<samp>AfterAll</samp>) to the <samp>GarbageCans</samp> → <samp>Items</samp> field for all garbage cans. These work exactly like the items in that field (e.g. subject to the garbage can's base chance).
|-
|-
| <samp>CanApplyFertilizer(itemId)</samp>
| <samp>GarbageCans</samp>
| Get whether a player can apply the given fertilizer to this dirt.
| The data for individual garbage cans. This consists of a string → model lookup with these fields:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! field
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>CheckApplyFertilizerRules(itemId)</samp>
| ''entry key''
| Get whether a player can apply the given fertilizer to this dirt, and the reason they can't if applicable.
| The [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for this garbage can.
|-
|-
| <samp>GetFertilizerSpeedBoost()</samp>
| <samp>BaseChance</samp>
| Get the crop growth speed boost from fertilizers applied to this dirt.
| ''(Optional)'' If set, overrides the root <samp>DefaultBaseChance</samp> field for this garbage can. Defaults to <samp>DefaultBaseChance</samp>.
|-
|-
| <samp>GetFertilizerWaterRetentionChance()</samp>
| <samp>Items</samp>
| Get the water retention chance from fertilizers applied to this dirt, as a value between 0 (no change) and 1 (100% chance of staying watered).
| ''(Optional)'' The items to try spawning when the player searches the garbage can. The first matching item in <samp>BeforeAll</samp> + <samp>Items</samp> + <samp>AfterAll</samp> will be spawned, and any further items will be ignored. Defaults to none.
This consists of a list of models with these fields:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! field
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>GetFertilizerSourceRect()</samp>
| ''common fields''
| Get the pixel area within the dirt spritesheet to draw for any fertilizer applied to this dirt.
| See [[Modding:Item queries#Item spawn fields|item spawn fields]] for the generic item fields supported by garbage cans.
If set to an [[Modding:Item queries|item query]] which returns multiple items, one of them will be selected at random.
|-
|-
| <samp>isWatered()</samp>
| <samp>IgnoreBaseChance</samp>
| Get whether the dirt is currently watered.
| ''(Optional)'' Whether this item can spawn even if the <samp>BaseChance</samp> probability check didn't pass. Default false.
|-
|-
| <samp>IsMegaSuccess</samp>
| <samp>IsRecipe</samp><br /><samp>Quality</samp><br /><samp>Stack</samp></samp><br /><samp>sellToStorePrice(…)</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether to treat this item as a 'mega success' if it's selected, which plays a special <samp>crit</samp> sound and bigger animation. Default false.
|-
|-
| <samp>appliesProfitMargins()</samp>
| <samp>IsDoubleMegaSuccess</samp>
| Get whether this item should apply [[Multiplayer#Profit margins|profit margins]] to shop prices.
| ''(Optional)'' Whether to treat this item as an 'double mega success' if it's selected, which plays an explosion sound and dramatic animation. Default false.
|-
|-
| <samp>CanBeLostOnDeath()</samp>
| <samp>AddToInventoryDirectly</samp>
| Get whether this item can be lost when the player dies, so it can be recovered from the [[Adventurer's Guild#Item Recovery Service|item recovery service]].
| ''(Optional)'' Whether to add the item to the player's inventory directly, opening an item grab menu if they don't have room in their inventory. If false, the item will be dropped on the ground next to the garbage can instead. Default false.
|-
|-
| <samp>HasTypeId(id)</samp><br /><samp>HasTypeObject()</samp><br /><samp>HasTypeBigCraftable()</samp>
| <samp>CreateMultipleDebris</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether to split the spawned item into multiple stacks which each have a stack size of one. This has no effect if <samp>AddToInventoryDirectly</samp> is enabled. Default false.
|}
|}
If the garbage can being searched doesn't have its own entry under <samp>GarbageCans</samp>, the game will just use the <samp>BeforeAll</samp> and <samp>AfterAll</samp> fields.
}
<samp>HasTypeObject()</samp> and <samp>HasTypeBigCraftable()</samp> are shortcuts for passing <samp>ItemRegistry.type_object</samp> and <samp>ItemRegistry.type_bigCraftable</samp> respectively.
|-
|-
| <samp>TryGetTempData</samp><br /><samp>SetTempData</samp>
| <samp>CustomFields</samp>
| The [[#Custom data fields|custom fields]] for this entry.
|}
====Example new garbage can====
You can add garbage cans using only [[Modding:Content Patcher|Content Patcher]] or [[Modding:Modder Guide/APIs/Content|SMAPI's content API]]. For example, this content pack adds a new garbage can entry with the ID <samp>Example.ModId_Carpenter</samp>:
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|<nowiki>
{
"Format": "</nowiki>{{Content Patcher version}}<nowiki>",
"Changes": [
{
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/GarbageCans",
"TargetField": [ "GarbageCans" ],
"Entries": {
"{{ModId}}_Carpenter": {
"Items": [
// 25% chance of pufferfish
{
"ID": "{{ModId}}_Pufferfish",
"Condition": "RANDOM 0.25",
"ItemId": "(O)128"
},
// else guaranteed random House Plant item
{
"ID": "{{ModId}}_RandomHousePlant",
"ItemID": "RANDOM_ITEMS (F) 1376 1390"
}
]
}
}
}
]
}</nowiki>|lang=javascript}}
Then you'd place an <code>Action: Garbage Example.ModId_Carpenter</code> [[Modding:Maps|map tile property]] to mark a tile as a garbage can using this data.
</syntaxhighlight>
====Example change for existing garbage can====
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
You can edit an existing garbage cans using only [[Modding:Content Patcher|Content Patcher]] or [[Modding:Modder Guide/APIs/Content|SMAPI's content API]]. For example, this content pack adds pufferfish to the Saloon garbage can, and moves it above the dish of the day.
// oak table holding decorative bowl
Note that this uses <samp>TargetField</samp> to 'move into' the item list for the saloon, and then treat those items as the entry list being edited. Specifying an ID which isn't in the list will add a new entry, just like when editing a regular list asset.
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|<nowiki>
.SetHeldObject(ItemRegistry.Create<Furniture>("(F)1364"));
{
</syntaxhighlight>
"Format": "</nowiki>{{Content Patcher version}}<nowiki>",
"Changes": [
{
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/GarbageCans",
"TargetField": [ "GarbageCans", "Saloon", "Items" ],
"Entries": {
// 25% chance of pufferfish
"{{ModId}}_Pufferfish":{
"ID": "{{ModId}}_Pufferfish",
"Condition": "RANDOM 0.25",
"ItemId": "(O)128"
}
},
"MoveEntries": [
{ "ID": "{{ModId}}_Pufferfish", "BeforeId": "Base_DishOfTheDay" }
]
}
]
}</nowiki>|lang=javascript}}
====Changes for C# mods====
Previously garbage cans were tracked by <samp>Town.garbageChecked</samp>, an array of boolean fields. That approach doesn't work in Stardew Valley 1.6, since we're no longer limited to a specific set of garbage cans in the town map. This has been replaced by <samp>Game1.netWorldState.Value.CheckedGarbage</samp>, which is a hash set of garbage can IDs.
To migrate code:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! action
! code in 1.5.6
! code in 1.6
|-
|-
|rowspan="2"| <samp>FruitTree</samp>

...
</syntaxhighlight>
| <syntaxhighlight lang="js">
if (Game1.netWorldState.Value.CheckedGarbage.Contains("Saloon"))
...
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>TryAddFruit()</samp>

| Add a fruit item to the tree based on [[#Custom fruit trees|its data]].

town.garbageChecked[5] = true;
</syntaxhighlight>
| <syntaxhighlight lang="js">

|}
===Other item changes===
===Custom map actions===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Maps]]|done=false}}
C# mods can now handle custom <samp>Action</samp> & <samp>TouchAction</samp> [[Modding:Maps|map properties]] by calling <samp>GameLocation.RegisterTileAction</samp> & <samp>RegisterTouchAction</samp>, and passing a callback which receives the location, map property arguments, player who activated it, and tile position.
For example, let's say you want a locked gate which needs a custom key item. You can add a regular <code>TouchAction Example.ModId_UnlockGate</code> map property (e.g. by adding it directly in the map file, or using [[Modding:Content Patcher|Content Patcher]]'s <samp>EditMap</samp>, or using the [[Modding:Modder Guide/APIs/Content|content API]]). Then you can just handle the logic from your C# mod:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
You can now add/edit locations by editing the revamped <samp>Data/Locations</samp> asset. This makes nearly everything in the location configurable — display name, default warp arrival tile, how the location is created, artifact spots / fish / forage / weeds, music, etc.
internal class ModEntry : Mod
{
/// <inheritdoc />
public override void Entry(IModHelper helper)
{
GameLocation.RegisterTouchAction("Example.ModId_UnlockGate", this.HandleUnlockGate);
}
private void HandleUnlockGate(GameLocation location, string[] args, Farmer player, Vector2 tile)
{
const string mailFlag = "Example.ModId_GateUnlocked";
const string keyId = "Example.ModId_GateKey";
// unlock gate if locked
if (!player.mailReceived.Contains(mailFlag))
{
if (!Game1.player.Items.ContainsId(id, count))
{
Game1.activeClickableMenu = new DialogueBox("This gate is locked. I wonder where the key is?");
return;
}
player.removeFirstOfThisItemFromInventory(keyId);
player.mailReceived.Add(mailFlag);
}
// apply open-gate map edit
// NOTE: this is a quick example which changes the location's current map. If another mod reloads the map
// (e.g. a content pack editing it), the change will be lost. For persistent changes, you should use the
// AssetRequested event to apply the change when the map is reloaded.
IAssetDataForMap mapHelper = this.Helper.GameContent.GetPatchHelper(location.map).AsMap();
mapHelper.PatchMap(
this.Helper.Content.Load<Map>("assets/unlocked-gate.tmx"),
targetArea: new Rectangle((int)tile.X - 1, (int)tile.Y - 1, 2, 2)
);
}
}
</syntaxhighlight>
As another example, let's say you want the gate to unlock when the player presses the action key. You can add a regular <code>Action Example.ModId_UnlockGate</code> map property (e.g. by adding it directly in the map file, or using [[Modding:Content Patcher|Content Patcher]]'s <samp>EditMap</samp>, or using the [[Modding:Modder Guide/APIs/Content|content API]]). Then you can just handle the logic from your C# mod:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
internal class ModEntry : Mod
{
/// <inheritdoc />
public override void Entry(IModHelper helper)
{
GameLocation.RegisterTileAction("Example.ModId_UnlockGate", this.HandleUnlockGate);
}
private bool HandleUnlockGate(GameLocation location, string[] args, Farmer player, Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Point point)
{
const string mailFlag = "Example.ModId_GateUnlocked";
const string keyId = "Example.ModId_GateKey";
<dt>Player actions:</dt>
// unlock gate if locked
if (!player.mailReceived.Contains(mailFlag))

|-
return false;
}
player.removeFirstOfThisItemFromInventory(keyId);
player.mailReceived.Add(mailFlag);
}
// apply open-gate map edit
// NOTE: this is a quick example which changes the location's current map. If another mod reloads the map
// (e.g. a content pack editing it), the change will be lost. For persistent changes, you should use the
// AssetRequested event to apply the change when the map is reloaded.
IAssetDataForMap mapHelper = this.Helper.GameContent.GetPatchHelper(location.map).AsMap();
mapHelper.PatchMap(
this.Helper.Content.Load<Map>("assets/unlocked-gate.tmx"),
targetArea: new Rectangle((int)point.X - 1, (int)point.Y - 1, 2, 2)
);
return true;
}
}
</syntaxhighlight>
===Custom map layers===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Maps]]|done=false}}
You can now add any number of [[Modding:Maps|map layers]] by suffixing a vanilla layer name (i.e. <samp>Back</samp>, <samp>Buildings</samp>, <samp>Front</samp>, or <samp>AlwaysFront</samp>) with an offset. For example, <samp>Back-1</samp> will be drawn before/under <samp>Back</samp>, and <samp>Back2</samp> will be drawn after/over it. You can increment the number to add more layers.
This only affects layer rendering. Tile properties must still be set on the original layers.
===Custom minecarts===
{{/doc status|a new doc page|done=false}}
You can now extend [[minecart]]s by editing the <samp>Data\Minecarts</samp> data asset.
This consists of a string → model lookup, where...
* The key is a [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for the minecart network. When you interact with a minecart, the destinations listed for its network are shown.
* The value is a model with the fields listed below.

| <samp>UnlockCondition</samp>
| The [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for this entry in the list.
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] which indicates whether this minecart network is unlocked. Default always enabled.
|-
|-
| <samp>Location</samp>
| <samp>LockedMessage</samp>
| The internal location name.
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable string]] for the message shown when interacting with a minecart when the <samp>UnlockCondition</samp> false. Defaults to an "''Out of order''" translation.
|-
|-
| <samp>Position</samp>
| <samp>ChooseDestinationMessage</samp>
| The ''default'' tile position within the location, specified as an object with <samp>X</samp> and <samp>Y</samp> fields. If the location has any bed furniture, they'll be placed in the first bed found instead.
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable string]] for the message shown when listing destinations to choose from. Defaults to a "''Choose destination:''" translation.
|-
|-
| <samp>Condition</samp>
| <samp>BuyTicketMessage</samp>

| ''(Optional)'' When a destination costs money to use, a [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable string]] for the purchase confirmation message shown. If present, <code>{0}</code> is replaced with the purchase price. Defaults to a "''Buy a ticket for {0}g?''" translation.
|}
|}
====Open a minecart menu====
|-
You can use an <samp>Action: MinecartTransport {{o|network ID}} {{o|exclude destination ID}}</samp> [[Modding:Maps|map property]] to open the minecart menu. When the player interacts with the tile, it'll open the menu for the {{o|network ID}} network (default <samp>Default</samp>). if {{o|exclude destination ID}} is specified, the matching destination will be hidden from the list (usually because you're at that minecart). For example, the [[Bus Stop|bus stop]] minecart uses <code>Action: MinecartTransport Default Bus</code>.
| <samp>ReviveLocations</samp>
From a C# mod, you can call <code>Game1.currentLocation.ShowMineCartMenu(networkId, excludeDestinationId)</code> which works the same way (except that <samp>networkId</samp> is required).
====Example====
This [[Modding:Content Patcher|Content Patcher]] content pack adds the [[Railroad]] as a minecart destination, complete with a map edit adding a decorative minecart. It is available after the [[Random Events|Earthquake]] has occurred and minecarts have been unlocked.

===Custom passive festivals===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Festival data]] or a new doc page|done=false}}
You can now add or modify passive festivals by editing the <samp>Data/PassiveFestivals</samp> asset.
(A ''passive festival'' is a [[festivals|festival]] like the [[Night Market]]. They replace a location for a period of time, the player can enter/leave them anytime, and time continues passing while at the festival.)
====Data format====
The <samp>Data/PassiveFestivals</samp> asset consists of a string → model lookup, where...
* The key is a [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for the festival.
* The value is a model with the fields listed below.
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! effect
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>Id</samp>
| <samp>DisplayName</samp>
| The [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for this entry in the list.
| A [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable string]] for the display name shown on the [[calendar]].
|-
|-
| <samp>Location</samp>
| <samp>Season</samp>
| The internal location name.
| The [[season]] when the festival becomes active.
|-
|-
| <samp>Position</samp>
| <samp>StartDay</samp><br /><samp>EndDay</samp>
| The tile position within the location, specified as an object with <samp>X</samp> and <samp>Y</samp> fields.
| The days of month when the festival becomes active.
|-
| <samp>StartTime</samp>
| The time of day when the festival opens each day.
|-
| <samp>StartMessage</samp>
| A [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable string]] for the in-game [[wikipedia:Pop-up notification|toast notification]] shown when the festival begins each day.
|-
| <samp>MapReplacements</samp>
| The locations to swap for the duration of the festival. Despite the field name, this swaps '''locations''' (e.g. as added by <samp>CustomLocations</samp> using [[Modding:Content Patcher|Content Patcher]]), and not the location's map asset.
This is specified as a string → string lookup, where the key is the original location to replace and the value is the new location. Both use the internal location name, as shown by the {{nexus mod|679|Debug Mode}} mod. For example, this swaps the <samp>Beach</samp> location with <samp>BeachNightMarket</samp> during the [[Night Market]]:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"MapReplacements": {
"Beach": "BeachNightMarket"
}
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>Condition</samp>
| <samp>Condition</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] which indicates whether this entry is active. Defaults to always applied.
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] which indicates whether the festival is enabled (subject to the other fields like <samp>StartDay</samp> and <samp>EndDay</samp>). Defaults to always enabled.
|-
| <samp>ShowOnCalendar</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether the festival appears on the [[calendar]], using the same iridium-star icon as the [[Calendar#Winter|Night Market]]. Default true.
|-
| <samp>DailySetupMethod</samp><br /><samp>CleanupMethod</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' A C# method which applies custom logic when the day starts (<samp>DailySetupMethod</samp>) and/or overnight after the last day of the festival (<samp>CleanupMethod</samp>).
These must be specified in the form <samp>{{t|full type name}}: {{t|method name}}</samp> (like <samp>ExampleMod.Namespace.Type, ExampleMod: MethodName</samp>). The methods must be static, take zero arguments, and return void.
|-
| <samp>CustomFields</samp>
| The [[#Custom data fields|custom fields]] for this entry.
|}
|}
====NPC schedules====
When a passive festival is active, NPCs will check for [[Modding:Schedule data|a schedule entry]] in this order:
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! field
! syntax
! effect
! summary
|-
| <samp>{{t|festival ID}}_{{t|festival day}}</samp>
| Applies on the given date. The {{t|festival day}} is relative, so <samp>1</samp> matches the festival <samp>StartDay</samp>.<br /><small>Example: <samp>NightMarket_3</samp> or <samp>marriage_NightMarket_3</samp></small>
|-
|-
| <samp>SeasonOverride</samp>
| <samp>{{t|festival ID}}</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The season which is always active for locations within this context (one of <samp>spring</samp>, <samp>summer</samp>, <samp>fall</samp>, or <samp>winter</samp>). For example, setting <samp>summer</samp> will make it always [[summer]] there regardless of the calendar season. If not set, the calendar season applies.
| Applies if there's no date-specific entry.<br /><small>Example: <samp>NightMarket</samp> or <samp>marriage_NightMarket</samp></small>
|}
|}
<dt>Weather:</dt>
If the NPC is married to a player, they'll add a <samp>marriage_</samp> prefix to the keys (like <samp>marriage_{{t|festival ID}}_{{t|festival day}}</samp>) and ignore any entry without the prefix.
<dd>
{| class="wikitable"
===Custom weather===
|-
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Weather data]]|done=false}}
You can now change the weather algorithm by editing [[#Custom location contexts|location context data]], and (with a C# mod) implement custom weathers.
Fields like <samp>Game1.weather</samp> and <samp>Game1.weatherForTomorrow</samp> are now strings to support custom mod weather IDs. The change for vanilla weather has no effect on Content Patcher packs, since the new weather IDs match the ones Content Patcher was using before (i.e. <samp>Sun</samp>, <samp>Rain</samp>, <samp>Snow</samp>, <samp>Storm</samp>, and <samp>Wind</samp>). C# mods may also see a <samp>Festival</samp> weather, while Content Patcher packs will see <samp>Sun</samp> for it. The constants like <samp>Game1.weather_sunny</samp> have the new string values (with new constants like <samp>Game1.legacy_weather_sunny</samp> for the legacy values).
The base game will treat an invalid weather as sunny. C# mods can implement custom weather effects using [[Modding:Modder Guide/APIs/Events|normal SMAPI events]] like <samp>UpdateTicked</samp>, or by [[Modding:Modder Guide/APIs/Harmony|patching]] methods like <samp>Game1.ApplyWeatherForNewDay</samp> and <samp>Game1.populateDebrisWeatherArray</samp>.
===Custom world maps===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:World map]]|done=true}}
[[File:Modding map area.png|thumb|The default world map, with the farm map area highlighted.]]
You can now change the world map shown in the game menu by editing the <samp>Data/WorldMap</samp> asset. This lets you...
* add custom maps for certain locations;
* apply texture overlays;
* add/edit tooltips;
* set real-time player marker positioning;
* etc.
The game's default map is fully defined in <samp>Data/WorldMap</samp>, including all the display text and conditional changes.
===New map properties===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Maps]]|done=false}}
1.6 adds several new [[Modding:Maps|map properties]].

| ''(Optional)'' The [[#Custom audio|cue ID]] for the music to play when the player is in the location, unless overridden by a <samp>Music</samp> map property. Despite the name, this has a higher priority than the seasonal music fields below. Ignored if omitted.
| If set with any non-blank value, [[Crops#Giant Crops|giant crops]] can grow in this location (if crops are also allowed per the [[#Custom crops|crop data]] or [[#Custom location contexts|<samp>PlantableLocations</samp> context field]]).
|-
|-

| The items that should appear in the initial gift box placed in the farmhouse when the save is created. This consists of one or more pairs of item ID (which can be qualified or unqualified) and count. The count is optional on the last entry.
For example, this will add 10 pufferfish (object 128) and a blobfish mask (hat 56):
<pre>FarmHouseStarterGift (O)128 10 (H)56 1</pre>
If omitted, the default items (usually a 15 parsnip seeds) are added instead.

|-
|-
| <samp>Items</samp>
| <samp>Buildings</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The items to try spawning when the player searches the garbage can. The first matching item in <samp>BeforeAll</samp> + <samp>Items</samp> + <samp>AfterAll</samp> will be spawned, and any further items will be ignored. Defaults to none.
| <samp>Action BuildingToggleAnimalDoor</samp>
| If a building covers this tile, opens or closes its animal door.
|-
|-
| <samp>Buildings</samp>
| <samp>Action Dialogue</samp>
|  
* The message can now be a [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable string]].

| <samp>Action Forge</samp>
| Opens the [[Forge]] menu.
|-
|-
| <samp>IgnoreBaseChance</samp>
| <samp>Buildings</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether this item can spawn even if the <samp>BaseChance</samp> probability check didn't pass. Default false.
| <samp>Action None</samp>
| Does nothing. This is used to mark the tile interactive if the click will be handled separately.
|-
|-
| <samp>IsMegaSuccess</samp>
| <samp>Buildings</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether to treat this item as a 'mega success' if it's selected, which plays a special <samp>crit</samp> sound and bigger animation. Default false.
| <samp>Action ObeliskWarp {{t|location name}} {{t|x}} {{t|y}} {{o|whether to dismount}}</samp>

|-
|-
| <samp>IsDoubleMegaSuccess</samp>
| <samp>Buildings</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether to treat this item as an 'double mega success' if it's selected, which plays an explosion sound and dramatic animation. Default false.
| <samp>Action OpenShop {{t|shop id}} {{o|from direction}} {{o|open time}} {{o|close time}} {{o|owner tile area}}</samp>
| Open the [[#Custom shops|shop]] with the given {{t|shop id}}. All arguments besides the ID are optional:
* {{o|from direction}}: if specified, the player must be standing in this direction relative to the shop (one of <samp>down</samp>, <samp>up</samp>, <samp>left</samp>, <samp>right</samp>, or <samp>none</samp>). Setting this to <samp>none</samp> disables the requirement. The default for most vanilla shops is <samp>down</samp>.
* {{o|open time}} and {{o|close time}}: the start & end times in 26-hour format when the shop is available. Interacting with the tile outside those times does nothing.
* {{o|owner tile area}}: if specified, the tile area which must contain one of the shop owners for the shop to be available. For a custom shop, these are defined by its <samp>Owners</samp> field. This can be specified in two forms: <samp>{{t|x}} {{t|y}}</samp> for a single tile, or <samp>{{t|x}} {{t|y}} {{t|width}} {{t|height}}</samp> for a multi-tile area.
|-
|-
| <samp>AddToInventoryDirectly</samp>
| <samp>Buildings</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether to add the item to the player's inventory directly, opening an item grab menu if they don't have room in their inventory. If false, the item will be dropped on the ground next to the garbage can instead. Default false.
| <samp>Action PlayEvent {{t|event id}} {{o|check preconditions}} {{o|skip if seen}} {{o|fallback action}}</samp>
| Immediately start an [[Modding:Event data|event]], subject to the conditions:
* {{o|check preconditions}}: whether to ignore the action if the [[Modding:Event data#Event preconditions|event's preconditions]] don't match (one of <samp>true</samp> or <samp>false</samp>). Default true.
* {{o|skip if seen}}: whether to ignore the action if the player has already seen the given event. Default true.
|}
If the garbage can being searched doesn't have its own entry under <samp>GarbageCans</samp>, the game will just use the <samp>BeforeAll</samp> and <samp>AfterAll</samp> fields.
If the event doesn't start for any reason (including the preceding conditions):
* If {{o|fallback action}} is specified, it'll be run as an action. This can be any <samp>Action</samp> tile property (without the "Action " prefix), like <code>Action PlayEvent 60367 true true PlayEvent 520702 false false</code> to play a different event.
* Otherwise the action is silently ignored.
For example, <code>Action PlayEvent 60367 false false</code> will replay the bus arrival event from the start of the game.

====Example new garbage can====
===Other location/map changes===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Maps]] and other pages as needed|done=false}}
* Farm data:
** Added <samp>SpawnMonstersByDefault</samp> field to <samp>Data/AdditionalFarms</samp> to set the default value of the 'spawn monsters at night' [[Options#Advanced Game Options|advanced save option]].
** Fixed crash on new-save screen if the farm type's tooltip has no description.
* General location data:
** All locations can now have animals. The <samp>IAnimalLocation</samp> is now obsolete and implemented by <samp>GameLocation</samp>.
** Added new [[Modding:Fish data|fishing areas]] to simplify compatibility between fish & map mods (specifically for hilltop farm, wilderness farm, town, and desert).
** Added a descriptive error when a required location or layer isn't found. Mods can use <samp>map.RequireLayer</samp> and <samp>Game1.RequireLocation</samp> to get a location with similar error-checking.
** Added <samp>WarpPathfindingCache</samp> for C# mods, which modularizes the NPC warp route logic. You can edit its <samp>IgnoreLocationNames</samp>, <samp>OverrideTargetNames</samp>, and <samp>GenderRestrictions</samp> fields if needed for custom locations.
** Game logic which checks tile indexes is now more fault-tolerant, so it won't crash if an expected tile was edited.
** Finished migrating <samp>DecoratableLocation</samp> flooring/wallpaper areas to string IDs (started in Stardew Valley 1.5.5).
* General map changes:
** Added validation for [[Modding:Maps|map properties and tile properties]]. If the format is invalid, the game will now log a detailed error and skip it.
** Removed unused [[Modding:Maps#Paths layer|path tiles]] in <samp>Maps/paths</samp> and all map files.
* Location context data:
** Building interiors now inherit their parent's location context by default.
** Added <samp>Game1.locationContextData</samp> to cache the data from <samp>Data/LocationContexts</samp>.
** Added constants for the vanilla context IDs like <samp>LocationContexts.IslandId</samp>.
** Added validation for required location context IDs (and <samp>LocationContexts.Require(id)</samp> for mod logic).
** Removed the <samp>Name</samp> field in <samp>Data/LocationContexts</samp>, which duplicated the ID.

Each frame will be rendered on-screen for <samp>FrameDuration</samp> milliseconds before switching to the next frame.
For example, if you set <samp>FrameCount</samp> to 6 and <samp>FramesPerRow</samp> to 3, the building will expect the frames to be laid out like this in the spritesheet (where frame 1 matches <samp>SourceRect</samp>):

The new <samp>Data/Characters</samp> asset (which replaces <samp>Data/NPCDispositions</samp> + <samp>Data/spousePatios</samp> + <samp>Data/spouseRooms</samp>) uses a data model format that's easier to edit and understand, and has a lot of fields to customize previously-hardcoded data.
| <samp>Builder</samp>

This consists of a string → model lookup, where...
* The key is a [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for the NPC like <samp>Example.ModId_NpcName</samp>, which will be used as the internal <samp>Name</samp> (not <samp>DisplayName</samp>).
* The value is a model with the following fields.

| See [[Modding:Item queries#Item spawn fields|item spawn fields]] for the generic item fields supported by machine output.
| ''(Optional)'' The '''last segment''' of the NPC's portrait and sprite asset names. For example, set to <samp>Abigail</samp> to use <samp>Portraits/Abigail</samp> and <samp>Characters/Abigail</samp> respectively. Defaults to the internal NPC name.
|-
| <samp>Appearance</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The portrait/sprite textures to use.
This can list any number of appearance options. They'll be sorted by <samp>Precedence</samp> value (with lower values taking priority), then filtered to those whose fields match. If multiple matching appearances have precedence, one entry is randomly chosen based on their relative weight. This randomization is stable per day, so the NPC always makes the same choice until the next day. If a portrait/sprite can't be loaded (or no appearances match), the NPC will use the default asset based on <samp>TextureName</samp>.
The NPC rechecks this field each time they change location.
This consists of a list of models with these fields:

====Examples====
For example, this content pack adds a new ''Amabel'' NPC with full social features:
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|<nowiki>
{
"Format": "</nowiki>{{Content Patcher version}}<nowiki>",
"Changes": [
|-
{
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/Characters",
"Entries": {
"{{ModId}}_Amabel": {
"DisplayName": "Amabel", // this would normally use {{i18n:}} to support translations
"BirthSeason": "Fall",
"BirthDay": 14,
"HomeRegion": "Town",
"Gender": "Female",
"Age": "Teen",
"Manner": "Rude",
"SocialAnxiety": "Outgoing",
"Optimism": "Neutral",
"CanBeRomanced": true,
"LoveInterest": "Abigail",
"Home": [
{
"Id": "Default",
"Location": "SeedShop",
"Tile": { "X": 1, "Y": 9 },
"Direction": "Left"
}
]
}
}
}
]
}</nowiki>|lang=javascript}}
You can also add non-social NPCs which don't have birthdays or friendship points, accept gifts, give quests, etc:
<ul>
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|<nowiki>
{
{| class="wikitable"
"Format": "</nowiki>{{Content Patcher version}}<nowiki>",

}</nowiki>|lang=javascript}}
===Custom NPC appearance===
===Custom NPCs===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:NPC data]]|done=false}}
[[Modding:NPC data|Custom NPC data]] has been overhauled in 1.6. The new <samp>Data/Characters</samp> asset (which replaces <samp>Data/NPCDispositions</samp> + <samp>Data/spousePatios</samp> + <samp>Data/spouseRooms</samp>) uses a data model format that's easier to edit and understand, and has a lot of fields to customize previously-hardcoded data.
Each NPC can now have any number of custom portraits/sprites in <samp>Data/Characters</samp> with arbitrary conditions. This lets mods add features like indoor/outdoor outfits without the performance impact of reloading textures. If multiple outfits apply, the game will choose between them with a day-stable randomization.
<dl style="margin-left: 2em;">
For example, you can load indoor/outdoor outfits for a custom NPC to swap between automatically:
<dt>Basic info:</dt>
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
<dd>
// add base indoor/outdoor sprites
{
"Action": "Load",
"Target": "Characters/Johnny_Indoor, Characters/Johnny_Outdoor, Portraits/Johnny_Indoor, Portraits/Johnny_Outdoor",
"FromFile": "assets/{{Target}}.png"
},
// apply any overlays needed
{
"Action": "EditImage",
"Target": "Characters/Johnny_Indoor, Portraits/Johnny_Indoor",
"FromFile": "assets/overlays/{{Target}}_married.png",
"When": {
"Spouse": "Johnny"
}
},
// add NPC
{
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/Characters",
"Entries": {
"SomeMod.Id_Johnny": {
...,
"Appearance": [
{
"Id": "Outdoors",
"Indoors": false,
"Portrait": "Portraits/Johnny_Outdoor",
"Sprite": "Characters/Johnny_Outdoor"
},
{
"Id": "Default",
"Portrait": "Portraits/Johnny_Indoor",
"Sprite": "Characters/Johnny_Indoor"
}
]
}
}
}
</syntaxhighlight>
See the <samp>Appearance</samp> field in [[#Custom NPCs|custom NPC data]] for more info.
===Custom farm animals===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Animal data]]|done=true}}
You can now create and edit [[Animals|farm animals]] by editing the revamped <samp>Data/FarmAnimals</samp> asset. This changes to a data model, adds built-in support for custom animals, and allows far more customizability per animal (like its size, growth, produce, appearance and sounds, etc).
===Custom pets===
{{/doc status|a new doc page|done=false}}
====Format====
You can now create and customize [[Animals#Cat or Dog|pet]]s & pet breeds by editing the new <samp>Data/Pets</samp> asset.
This consists of a string → model lookup, where...
* The key is a [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for the pet (not the pet breed). The vanilla IDs are <samp>Cat</samp> and <samp>Dog</samp>.
* The value is a model with the fields listed below.

====Other changes====
* The pet bowl is now a building which can be constructed or moved. Each pet is assigned to an available pet bowl. For C# mods, each pet now has a <samp>guid</samp> field populated with a unique ID, and each pet bowl has a <samp>petGuid</samp> field which tracks its owner (see the <samp>PetBowl::HasPet()</samp> and <samp>PetBowl::FindPet()</samp> methods).
* In the [[Modding:Event data#Basic format|event character setup]], you can now use <samp>pet</samp> to add a pet of the player's selected type. Its actor name will be <samp>PetActor</samp> in other event commands. This supersedes <samp>cat</samp> (with name <samp>Cat</samp>) and <samp>dog</samp> (with name <samp>Dog</samp>), though those still work too.
* For C# mods:
** All pets now use a generic <samp>Pet</samp> class, instead of <samp>Cat</samp> or <samp>Dog</samp>. The pet type is tracked by the pet's <samp>petType</samp> field.
** The player's preferred pet type is tracked by <samp>Game1.player.whichPetType</samp>. The former <samp>catPerson</samp> field is now readonly and checks that field.
** Added <samp>Pet.type_cat</samp> and <samp>Pet.type_dog</samp> constants for the default pet types.

|-
|-
| <samp>Shadow</samp>
| <samp>Count</samp>

| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable string]] for custom [[Gil]] dialogue shown when talking to him after completing the goal, and an optional [[Modding:Mail data|mail flag]] to set when the player has seen the dialogue. Both default to none.
If there are reward items, they're shown after this dialogue.
If <samp>RewardDialogue</samp> is used without <samp>RewardDialogueFlag</samp>, then this dialogue will be shown each time the reward menu is opened after completing the goal, until the player collects the reward items. If the <samp>RewardItems</samp> isn't set, this can safely be omitted since the goal will be marked collected immediately.

Note that <samp>RewardFlag</samp> is usually not needed, since the game will also set a <samp>Gil_{{t|goal ID}}</samp> flag regardless.
This is a multiplier applied to the default shadow scale, which can change based on factors like whether the NPC is jumping. For example, <samp>0.5</samp> means half the size it'd be drawn if you didn't specify a scale.
This doesn't send a letter; see <samp>RewardMail</samp> or <samp>RewardMailAll</samp> for that.

| ''(Optional)'' For the [[Secrets#Gift Log|hidden gift log emote]], the index within the NPC's overworld sprite spritesheet at which the animation starts. If omitted for a vanilla NPC, the game plays a default animation specific to that NPC; if omitted for a custom NPC, the game just shows them walking while facing down.
| ''(Optional)'' The maximum number of times a player can receive this phone call, or <samp>-1</samp> for no limit. Default 1.
|-

| ''(Optional)'' For the [[Secrets#Gift Log|hidden gift log emote]], the number of frames in the animation. The first frame corresponds to <samp>HiddenProfileEmoteStartFrame</samp>, and each subsequent frame will use the next sprite in the spritesheet. Default 1.
| ''(Optional)'' If set, a game state query which indicates whether to trigger this phone call (<samp>TriggerCondition</samp>) or whether the phone rings when this call is received (<samp>RingCondition</samp>).
Whether a player receives this call depends on both fields: <samp>TriggerCondition</samp> is checked on the main player before sending the call to all players, then <samp>RingCondition</samp> is checked on each player to determine whether the phone rings for them.
|-
| <samp>IgnoreBaseChance</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' Whether to ignore the 1% base chance when checking whether to trigger an incoming call. If true, the game will check if this call can be received regardless of the base chance. Default false.
|-
|-
| <samp>HiddenProfileEmoteFrameDuration</samp>
| <samp>SimpleDialogueSplitBy</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' For the [[Secrets#Gift Log|hidden gift log emote]], how long each animation frame is shown on-screen before switching to the next one, measured in milliseconds. Default 200.
| ''(Optional, specialized)'' If set, marks the call as having a simple dialogue string without an NPC name and portrait, with lines split into multiple boxes by this substring. For example, <code>"SimpleDialogueSplitBy": "#"</code> will split <code>Box A#Box B#Box C</code> into three consecutive dialogue boxes.
You should omit this in most cases, and use the regular dialogue format in <samp>Dialogue</samp> to split lines if needed. This is mainly intended to support some older vanilla phone calls.

</li>
<li>Added new [[Modding:Dialogue|dialogue]] commands:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
| <samp>SummitPerfectionEvent</samp>
! command
| ''(Optional)'' How to render the pet during the summit [[perfection]] slideshow. If this isn't set, the pet won't be shown in the slideshow.
! description
|- id="gender-switch"
| <samp>${male^female}$</samp><br /><samp>${male^female^non-binary}$</samp>
| Change text depending on the player's gender. This largely supersedes the <samp>^</samp> dialogue token (which still works), and is supported in many more places than that token. This is applied before most other commands or parsing, so it can safely be used in cases where <samp>^</samp> might have a different meaning (e.g. mail text). For example: <code>Ahoy there ${lad^lass}$!</code> or <code>Ahoy there ${lad^lass^matey}$!</code>.
You can optionally use <samp>¦</samp> instead of <samp>^</samp>, in which case any <samp>^</samp> characters are left as-is.
Note that the non-binary value is only used if a mod overrides the player's gender, since the in-game UI only allows male or female.
|-
|-
| <samp>$action {{t|action}}</samp>
| Run a [[Modding:Trigger actions|trigger action string]], like <samp>$action AddMoney 500</samp> to add {{price|500}} to the current player.
|-
|-
| <samp>SourceRect</samp>
| <samp>$query {{t|query}}#{{t|if true}}|{{t|if false}}</samp>
| The source rectangle within the pet's texture to draw.
| Show different dialogue text depending on the [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] in {{t|query}}. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"Mon": "$query !PLAYER_VISITED_LOCATION Current Mine#Did you know there's an old abandoned mine up in the mountain? Apparently it's crawling with monsters!|I heard you went into the old mines up in the mountain!#Did you find anything tasty?$h"
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>AnimationLength</samp>
| <samp>$t {{t|topic ID}} {{o|day length}}</samp>
| The number of frames to show starting from the <samp>SourceRect</samp>.
| Add a [[Modding:Dialogue#Conversation topics|conversation topic]] for the next {{o|day length}} days (default 4 days).
|-
|-
| <samp>Motion</samp>
| <samp>$v {{t|event id}} {{o|check preconditions}} {{o|skip if seen}}</samp>
| The motion to apply to the pet sprite.
| Immediately start an [[Modding:Event data|event]] and end the current dialogue, subject to the conditions:
|-
* {{o|check preconditions}}: whether to ignore the command if the [[Modding:Event data#Event preconditions|event's preconditions]] don't match (one of <samp>true</samp> or <samp>false</samp>). Default true.
| <samp>Flipped</samp>
* {{o|skip if seen}}: whether to ignore the command if the player has already seen the given event. Default true.
| ''(Optional)'' Whether to apply the 'ping pong' effect to the pet sprite animation. Default false.
If the event is not played, the dialogue continues to the next line instead.
For example, <code>$v 60367 false false</code> will replay the bus arrival event from the start of the game. <code>$v SomeMod.Test true false#$b#Wow! Good timing!$1</code> will play the event "SomeMod.Test" if the player meets the precondition requirements. If they do not, the dialogue "Wow! Good timing!$1" will play instead.
Note: The command will only work if it is at the very start of the dialogue. Adding any dialogue or other commands before it will cause it not to trigger the event and display the event commands as dialogue instead.

<li>Improved dialogue commands:
<dt>Direction:</dt>
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! field
! command
! effect
! changes
|-
|-
| <samp>Direction</samp>
| <samp>$p</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' The specific direction to face at the start of this state (one of <samp>left</samp>, <samp>right</samp>, <samp>up</samp>, or <samp>down</samp>), unless overridden by <samp>RandomizeDirection</samp>.
| You can now check multiple answer IDs. For example, this will show the first dialogue if the player chose dialogue answer 17, 18, or 19:
<pre>$p 17|18|19#I guess you think nothing would happen, right?$u|Maybe a wicked ghost would appear!</pre>
|}</li>
<li>[[Modding:Dialogue#Response IDs|Dialogue response IDs]] are now [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string IDs]].</li>
<li>[[Secrets#Item Spawn Cheat|Item spawn codes]] now use string item IDs. That means you can spawn any item using its [[#Custom items|qualified item ID]] (like <code>[(F)1664]</code> for a [[Mystic Rug]]), but can no longer prepend zeros (e.g. <code>[128]</code> is a pufferfish but <code>[0128]</code> is an error item).</li>
<li>For C# mods, <samp>Dialogue</samp> now tracks the translation key used to build it (when applicable). For example, you can detect when the player is rejected at the [[Flower Dance]] (derived from {{github|spacechase0/StardewValleyMods|Three-Heart Dance Partner}}):
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
private void OnMenuChanged(object sender, MenuChangedEventArgs e)
{
bool isDanceRejection =
Game1.currentLocation?.currentEvent?.FestivalName == "Flower Dance"
&& e.NewMenu is DialogueBox dialogueBox
&& dialogueBox.characterDialogue is {} dialogue
&& dialogue.TranslationKey == $"Characters\\Dialogue\\{dialogue.speaker?.Name}:danceRejection";
}
</syntaxhighlight>
For C# mods that create <samp>Dialogue</samp> instances directly, there's a few ways to do it now:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
// from a translation key
var dialogue = new Dialogue(npc, "Strings\\StringsFromCSFiles:Utility.cs.5360");
// from custom text (with or without a translation key)
var dialogue = new Dialogue(npc, null, "Some arbitrary text to show as-is");
// from a translation with tokens
var dialogue = Dialogue.FromTranslation(npc, "Data\\ExtraDialogue:PurchasedItem_2_QualityLow_Willy", whatToCallPlayer, particle, i.DisplayName);
</syntaxhighlight>
</dd>
<dt>Audio:</dt>
You can also easily add fallback logic using <samp>Dialogue.TryGetDialogue</samp> or <samp>npc.TryGetDialogue</samp>. For example:
<dd>
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
{| class="wikitable"
Dialogue dialogue =
npc.TryGetDialogue($"rejection_{itemId}_{locationName}_{x}_{y}")
?? npc.TryGetDialogue($"rejection_{itemId}_{locationName}")
?? npc.TryGetDialogue($"rejection_{itemId}")
?? new Dialogue(npc, "Strings\\StringsFromCSFiles:NPC.cs.3971");
</syntaxhighlight>
</li>
|-
<li>For C# mods, added a <samp>dialogue.sideEffects</samp> field to run code when the dialogue is displayed.</li>
| <samp>SoundRange</samp><br /><samp>SoundRangeFromBorder</samp>
<li>The 'reveal taste' dialogue command now uses the format <samp>%revealtaste:{{t|npc name}}:{{t|item ID}}</samp> to support item IDs. (The previous <samp>%revealtaste{{t|npc name}}{{t|item index}}</samp> format still works to support old content packs, but the item index can only be a number.)</li>
<li>NPCs no longer override the portrait for a gift taste dialogue that uses a portrait command explicitly.</li>
|-
<li>Fixed unknown [[Modding:Dialogue|dialogue]] commands starting with <samp>$</samp> being parsed as a portrait number when not numeric.</li>
<li>Fixed NPCs only using a <code>{day name}{hearts}_{year}</code> dialogue if they also have a <code>{day name}{hearts}</code> one.</li>
<li>Fixed NPCs only using the <code>MovieInvitation</code> dialogue key in English.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
===Schedule changes===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Schedule data]]|done=false}}
<ul>
<li>Schedule keys are now case-insensitive.</li>
<li>Added a new <samp>{{t|day of week}}_{{t|min hearts}}</samp> schedule key.</li>
<li>Added an <samp>NPC.ScheduleKey</samp> field which always matches their loaded schedule.</li>
<li>Schedule commands now trim surrounding whitespace, so they can be multilined for readability. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">"Wed": "
1000 ArchaeologyHouse 11 9 0/
1800 Town 47 87 0/
2200 SeedShop 1 9 3 abigail_sleep
"</syntaxHighlight></li>
<li>Removed an unintended schedule fallback to a <samp>{season}_spring_{hearts}</samp> key. It'll skip to the <samp>spring</samp> default instead.</li>
<li>Schedules are now fault-tolerant:
* Fixed crash if a selected schedule can't be parsed. The NPC now logs an error and continues with the next fallback instead.
* Fixed crash if certain hardcoded schedules aren't present (like Penny's <samp>marriageJob</samp> or Pam's <samp>bus</samp>).
* Fixed error if a schedule command is empty.</li>
</ul>
===Other NPC changes===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:NPC data]] as needed|done=false}}
<ul>
<li>Added <samp>Game1.characterData</samp> and <samp>Game1.farmAnimalData</samp> to read NPC/animal info without constantly reloading the <samp>Data/Characters</samp> or <samp>Data/FarmAnimals</samp> asset.</li>
<li>All translated NPC names are now in <samp>Strings/NPCNames</samp>.

==What's new for everything else==
===Buff overhaul===
{{/doc status|a new doc page|done=false}}
===Custom monster eradication goals===
: ''See also: [[#Custom buffs|custom buffs]].''
: ''See also: [[#Monster eradication goal flag changes|Monster eradication goal flag changes]].''
1.6 rewrites buffs to work more consistently and be more extensible:
* Buff logic is unified into <samp>Game1.player.buffs</samp>, which is the single source of truth for buff data. This replaces the previous <samp>player.added*</samp> and <samp>player.appliedBuffs</samp> fields, <samp>BuffsDisplay</samp> logic, enchantment stat bonuses, and boots/ring attribute changes on (un)equip.
* This also removes limitations on buff types (e.g. buffs can add weapon bonuses and weapons can add attribute buffs) and buffable equipment (e.g. equipped tools can have buffs too).
* Buff effects are now fully recalculated when they change, to fix a range of longstanding bugs like attribute drift and double-debuffs. Just like before, the buffs are managed locally; only the buff IDs and aggregate attribute effects are synced.
'''For C# mods:'''
* Each buff now has a unique string ID. You can apply a new buff with the same ID to replace it (so you no longer need to manually find and remove previous instances of the buff).
* The buff duration can now be set to <samp>Buff.ENDLESS</samp> to remove the duration. It'll last all day until the player sleeps.
* You can add standard buff effects to any equipment by overriding <samp>Item.AddEquipmentEffects</samp>, or add custom behaviour/buffs by overriding <samp>Item.onEquip</samp> and <samp>Item.onUnequip</samp>.
* You can add custom food or drink buffs by overriding <samp>Item.GetFoodOrDrinkBuffs()</samp>.
* The <samp>Buff</samp> constructor now supports a custom icon texture, sprite index, display name, description, and millisecond duration to fully support custom buffs.
* You can change how buff attributes are displayed (or add new attributes) by extending the <samp>BuffsDisplay.displayAttributes</samp> list.
* You can have invisible buffs by setting <samp>buff.visible = false</samp>.
For example, here's how to add a custom buff which adds +3 speed:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
Buff buff = new Buff(
id: "Example.ModId_ZoomZoom",
displayName: "Zoom Zoom", // can optionally specify description text too
iconTexture: this.Helper.ModContent.Load<Texture2D>("assets/zoom.png"),
iconSheetIndex: 0,
duration: 30_000, // 30 seconds
effects: new BuffEffects()
{
Speed = { 10 } // shortcut for buff.Speed.Value = 10
}
);
Game1.player.applyBuff(buff);
</syntaxhighlight>
You can also implement your own custom effects in code by checking if the buff is active, like <code>Game1.player.hasBuff("Example.ModId_ZoomZoom")</code>.
===Custom audio===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Audio]]|done=true}}
You can now add or edit music tracks or sound effects by editing the new <samp>Data/AudioChanges</samp> asset. New cues are added to the game's soundbank, so they can be used anywhere normal audio can be used (e.g. the <samp>Music</samp> [[Modding:Maps|map property]]). This supports <samp>.ogg</samp> and <samp>.wav</samp> files, and the vanilla audio features (e.g. randomizing audio from one ID).
Audio is also more fault-tolerant in 1.6: the game no longer crashes when playing audio which doesn't exist, it now logs an error and returns a default quiet click sound instead. (If you use <code>try..catch</code> to check if an audio cue exists, you should check <code>Game1.soundbank.Exists(name)</code> instead.)
===Custom buffs===
{{/doc status|a new doc page|done=false}}
: ''See also: [[#Buff overhaul|buff overhaul]].''
You can now add/edit [[Adventurer's Guild]] monster eradication goals by editing the new <samp>Data/MonsterSlayerQuests</samp> data asset.
You can now define custom buffs by editing the new <samp>Data/Buffs</samp> asset. You can then use the buff from other places like <samp>Data/Object</samp>'s <samp>Buff</samp> field or the C# <samp>Buff</samp> constructor.

===Custom data fields===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Common data field types#Custom fields]]|done=true}}
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
Many data assets now have a <samp>CustomFields</samp> field. This is ignored by the game, but lets mods add their own data (e.g. to enable mod framework features).
/// <summary>The mod entry point.</summary>
For example, a content pack can [[#Custom crops|add a crop]] with custom fields:
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|<nowiki>
{
{
...
"Format": "</nowiki>{{Content Patcher version}}<nowiki>",
}
"Changes": [
{
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/Crops",
"Entries": {
"Example.Id_CucumberSeeds": {
"Seasons": [ "summer" ],
"DaysInPhase": [ 1, 2, 2, 2 ],
"HarvestItemId": "Example.Id_Cucumber",
"Texture": "{{InternalAssetKey: assets/crops.png}}",
"SpriteIndex": 0,
See <samp>StardewValley.PhoneCalls.DefaultPhoneHandler</samp> in the [[Modding:Modder Guide/Get Started#decompile|decompiled game code]] for an example implementation.
"CustomFields": {
"Example.FrameworkMod/WetTexture": "{{InternalAssetKey: assets/crops-wet.png}}"
}
}
}
}
]
}</nowiki>|lang=javascript}}
And then a C# mod could handle the custom field if it's set:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
if (Game1.currentLocation.IsRainingHere())
{
CropData data = crop.GetData();
if (data != null && data.CustomFields.TryGetValue("Example.FrameworkMod/WetTexture", out string textureName))
{
// do magic
}
}
</syntaxhighlight>
See <samp>CustomFields</samp> in the docs for each asset type to see if it's supported. Besides the sections listed on this page, custom fields were also added to <samp>Data/AdditionalFarms</samp>, <samp>Data/AdditionalLanguages</samp>, <samp>Data/FishPondData</samp>, <samp>Data/HomeRenovations</samp>, <samp>Data/Movies</samp>, and <samp>Data/SpecialOrders</samp>.

| <samp>Chance</samp>
| Shown when the NPC catches the player digging through a trash can. Defaults to a generic dialogue based on the NPC's age.
| ''(Optional)'' The probability that this entry is selected, as a value between 0 (never drops) and 1 (always drops). Default 1 (100% chance).
|-
|-
| <samp>HitBySlingshot</samp>
| <samp>ForShavingEnchantment</samp>
| Shown when the player shoots them with a [[slingshot]]. Defaults to a generic dialogue.
| ''(Optional)'' Whether this item is only dropped for [[Enchantments#Tool enchantments|Shaving enchantment]] drops (<samp>true</samp>), only when the giant crop is broken (<samp>false</samp>), or both (<samp>null</samp>). Default both.
|-

| <samp>ScaledMinStackWhenShaving</samp><br /><samp>ScaledMaxStackWhenShaving</samp>
| Shown when the NPC rejects a [[bouquet]].
| ''(Optional)'' If set, the min/max stack size when this item is dropped due to the [[Forge#Enchantments|shaving enchantment]], scaled to the tool's power level.
This value is multiplied by the health deducted by the tool hit which triggered the enchantment. For example, an iridium axe which reduced the giant crop's health by 3 points will produce three times this value per hit.
If the specific dialogue isn't set, the game will use the <samp>RejectBouquet</samp> dialogue (if set), else it'll default to generic dialogue for each case.
If both fields are set, the stack size is randomized between them. If only one is set, it's applied as a limit after the generic fields. If neither is set, the generic <samp>MinStack</samp>/<samp>MaxStack</samp> fields are applied as usual without scaling.

|-
| <samp>Texture</samp>
| The asset name for the texture containing the giant crop's sprite.

|-
|-
| <samp>RejectGift_Divorced</samp>
| <samp>TileSize</samp>
| Shown when the NPC rejects a gift because you divorced them.
| ''(Optional)'' The area in tiles occupied by the giant crop, specified as a model with <samp>X</samp> and <samp>Y</samp> fields. This affects both its sprite size (which should be 16 pixels per tile) and the grid of crops needed for it to grow. Note that giant crops are drawn with an extra tile's height. Defaults to (3, 3).
|-
|-
| <samp>RejectItem_{{t|id}}</samp><br /><samp>RejectItem_{{t|tag}}</samp>
| <samp>Health</samp>
| If set, the NPC will refuse to accept any matching item and show this dialogue instead. This can be by item ID (like <samp>RejectItem_(O)128</samp>) or context tag (like <samp>RejectItem_category_fish</samp>). This can prevent gifting, movie tickets, bouquets, mermaid pendants, etc. However it won't prevent accepting an item for an active quest or special order.
| ''(Optional)'' The health points that must be depleted to break the giant crop. The number of points depleted per [[axe]] chop depends on the axe power level. Default 3.

| Shown when the NPC rejects a [[Mermaid's Pendant|mermaid's pendant]].
| ''(Optional)'' The percentage chance that a given grid of crops will grow into the giant crop each night, as a value between 0 (never) and 1 (always). Default 0.01 (1%).
Note that the chance is checked for each giant crop that applies. If three giant crops each have a 1% chance of spawning for the same crop, then there's a 3% chance that one of them will spawn.
|-

| ''(Optional)'' Whether the track should be shown in the jukebox menu. This can be <samp>true</samp> (always shown), <samp>false</samp> (never shown), or <samp>null</samp> (show if the player has heard it before). Default <samp>null</samp>.
Tracks with <samp>"Available": true</samp> are listed first in the jukebox menu.
|-
|-
| <samp>SpouseStardrop</samp>
| <samp>AlternativeTrackIds</samp>
| Shown when receiving the [[stardrop]] from your spouse.
| ''(Optional)'' A list of other cue names for this audio track (not case-sensitive). If the player has heard any of these track IDs, this entry is available in the menu. Default none.
For example, this can be used when renaming a track to keep it unlocked for existing players:

===Custom movies===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Movie theater data]]|done=false}}
| Shown at the [[Stardew Valley Fair]] after Lewis finishes judging the grange displays.
: ''See also: [[#Custom movie concessions|custom movie concessions]].''
[[Modding:Movie theater data#Movie data|Movie data]] was previously very limited and prone to mod conflicts, since (a) we needed incrementing movie IDs like <samp>spring_movie_3</samp>, (b) we were limited to one movie per season, and (c) all sprites for each movie had to be in the vanilla <samp>LooseSprites/Movies</samp> spritesheet.
Stardew Valley 1.6 revamps how movies work to address those limitations.
<dl>
<dt>Movie selection</dt>
<dd><p>Movies were previously selected based on a specific ID pattern: <samp>spring_movie_0</samp> would play in spring the year you built the movie theater, <samp>spring_movie_1</samp> would play in spring the next year, etc. That meant it'd take two in-game years to see the first custom movie, and ID conflicts had to be managed manually.</p>
In 1.6, we can now have multiple movies per month based on the new fields listed below. If multiple movies can play in the same season, each movie will be shown for an equal block of days within the month (e.g. four movies will each play for seven consecutive days). If there are more movies than days, 28 movies will be chosen at random to play that month.</dd>

* <samp>Data/Movies</samp>, <samp>Data/Concessions</samp>, and <samp>Data/MoviesReactions</samp> no longer have language variants. Instead translations were moved into <samp>Strings/*</samp> assets, and the data assets use [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable strings]] to get text.
* <samp>Data/Movies</samp> is now a list instead of a dictionary. The order determines the order movies are shown within a season. Content packs can edit them the same way as before.
* Added a <samp>debug movieSchedule {{o|year}}</samp> command to help troubleshoot movie selection.

===Custom wedding event===
{{/doc status|a new doc page|done=false}}
The [[Marriage#The Wedding|wedding]] event can now be changed by editing the <samp>Data\Weddings</samp> data asset, which consists of a data model with two relevant fields (listed below).
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! field
! field/method
! effect
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>EventScript</samp>
| <samp>IsComplete(data)</samp>
| The [[Modding:Event data|event scripts]] which play the wedding. The game will use the script for the spouse NPC/player if it exists, otherwise it'll use the default script.
This consists of a string → string dictionary, where...
* The key is an NPC internal name (like <samp>Abigail</samp>), unique player ID, or <samp>default</samp> for the default script (which handles marrying either an NPC or player);
* The value is a [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable strings]] for the event script to play.
The event scripts also have access to three extra tokens:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! token
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>AnimalHouse</samp>
| <samp>[SetupContextualWeddingAttendees]</samp>
| <samp>adoptAnimal</samp>
| The concatenated <samp>Setup</samp> values for each of the <samp>Attendees</samp> present in the wedding.
|-
|-
| <samp>AnimatedSprite</samp>
| <samp>[ContextualWeddingCelebrations]</samp>
| <samp>Owner</samp>
| The concatenated <samp>Celebration</samp> values for each of the <samp>Attendees</samp> present in the wedding.
|-
|-
| <samp>[SpouseActor]</samp>
| <samp>IsVillager</samp>
| The actor ID for the NPC or other player being married (like <samp>Abigail</samp> for an NPC or <samp>farmer2</samp> for a player). This can be used in event commands like <code>faceDirection [SpouseActor] 1</code>.
(You can also use <samp>spouse</samp> as an actor ID, but that will only work when marrying an NPC.)
|}
|-
|-
| <samp>StandingPixel</samp>
| <samp>Attendees</samp>
| The character's cached pixel position within the current location, based on the center pixel of their bounding box.
| The other NPCs which should attend the wedding (unless they're the spouse). This consists of a string → model lookup, where the key is the internal NPC name, and the value is a model with these fields:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! field
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>ID</samp>
| <samp>isAdult</samp>
| The internal NPC name.
|-
|-
| <samp>CanGetProduceWithTool</samp>
| <samp>Setup</samp>
| Get whether the farm animal's produce can be collected with a given tool (e.g. milk pail for a cow).
| The NPC's tile position and facing direction when they attend. This is equivalent to field index 2 in the [[Modding:Event data#Basic format|event basic data]].
|-
|-
| <samp>CanLiveIn</samp>
| <samp>Celebration</samp>
| Get whether the animal can be added to a building.
| ''(Optional)'' The [[Modding:Event data|event script]] to run during the celebration, like <samp>faceDirection Pierre 3 true</samp> which makes Pierre turn to face left. This can contain any number of script commands.
|-
|-
| <samp>GetDisplayName</samp><br /><samp>GetShopDescription</samp>
| <samp>Condition</samp>
| Get the translated display name or shop description for this animal.
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] which indicates whether the NPC should attend. Defaults to true.
|-
|-
| <samp>GetHarvestType</samp>
| <samp>IgnoreUnlockConditions</samp>
| Get whether the animal's produce is dropped or collected with a tool.
| ''(Optional)'' Whether to add the NPC even if their entry in <samp>Data/Characters</samp> has an <samp>UnlockConditions</samp> field which doesn't match. Default false.
|}
|}
===Game state queries===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Game state queries]]|done=true}}
| Update the animal sprite based on the current state + data.
|-
A ''game state query'' is a new vanilla way to specify conditions for some content like [[#Custom shops|shop data]], inspired by [[Modding:Content Patcher|Content Patcher]]'s conditions.
| rowspan="2"| <samp>Farmer</samp>
===Gender changes===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Dialogue]]|done=false}}
| <samp>CanDyePants</samp><br /><samp>CanDyeShirt</samp>
|rowspan="4"| <samp>NPC</samp>
* Added an [[#gender-switch|''inline gender-switch token'']] to change text depending on the player's gender. This reduces duplicate text, works in more places than the <samp>^</samp> dialogue token, works in mail and other places where <samp>^</samp> has a different meaning, and supports non-binary gender.
|-
* For C# mod authors, added a unified <samp>Gender</samp> field for players and NPCs with the possible values <samp>Male</samp>, <samp>Female</samp>, and <samp>Unspecified</samp>. This replaces <samp>Farmer.isMale</samp> and the numeric NPC gender constants. Note that vanilla still only sets players to male or female, though mods can override it.
* Gender-specific clothing variants can now be worn by any gender.
* Removed French-only support for using <samp>^</samp> dialogue token in non-dialogue text. This is superseded by the new inline gender-switch command.
==What's new for everything else==
===Item queries===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Item queries]]|done=true}}
''Item queries'' are a new built-in way to choose one or more items dynamically, instead of specifying a single item ID. These are used in various places like [[#Custom machines|machine data]] and [[#Custom shops|shop data]].
For example, a shop can sell a random [[House Plant|house plant]] using the <samp>RANDOM_ITEMS</samp> query:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
{
"ItemId": "RANDOM_ITEMS (F) 1376 1390",
"MaxItems": 1
}
</syntaxhighlight>
===Item spawn fields===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Item queries#Item spawn fields]]|done=true}}
Several data assets (like [[#Custom machines|machines]] and [[#Custom shops|shops]]) let you configure items to create using item queries. For consistency, these all share a set of common fields.
===Color fields===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Common data field types#Color]]|done=true}}
1.6 adds a standardized color format used in various data fields. This can be a color name, hexadecimal color code, or 8-bit RGB color code.
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
For example, you can set debris color in [[#Custom wild trees|<samp>Data/WildTrees</samp>]]:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"DebrisColor": "White"
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight>
===<samp>modData</samp> field changes===
The <samp>modData</samp> fields are dictionaries of arbitrary string values which are synchronized in multiplayer and persisted in the save file, so mods can store custom data about the instances. The game already has the field for buildings, characters (including NPCs and players), items, locations, and terrain features.
Stardew Valley 1.6...
* Adds <samp>modData</samp> fields to the <samp>Crop</samp>, <samp>Projectile</samp>, and <samp>Quest</samp> types too.
* Moves <samp>ModDataDictionary</samp> into the <samp>StardewValley.Mods</samp> namespace.
* Fixes <samp>Item.modData</samp> not copied when performing special equipment replacement (e.g. for the [[Pans|copper pan]] work as a hat).
====Format====
===Quantity modifiers===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Common data field types]]|done=false}}
''Quantity modifiers'' apply dynamic changes to a numeric field in a data asset like [[#Custom shops|<samp>Data/Shops</samp>]] or [[#Custom machines|<samp>Data/Machines</samp>]]. For example, you can multiply a shop item's price or increase a machine output's quality. You can specify any number of modifiers for the same field.
====Modifier format====
These consist of a list of models with these fields:
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! effect
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>ID</samp>
| <samp>Id</samp>
| The [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for the audio cue, used when playing the sound in-game.
| The [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]] for this modifier within the current list.
|-
|-
| <samp>FilePaths</samp>
| <samp>Modification</samp>
| A list of absolute file paths (not asset names) from which to load the audio. Each file can be <samp>.ogg</samp> or <samp>.wav</samp>. If you list multiple paths, a random one will be chosen each time it's played.
| The type of change to apply. The possible values are <samp>Add</samp>, <samp>Subtract</samp>, <samp>Multiply</samp>, <samp>Divide</samp>, and <samp>Set</samp>.
|-
|-
| <samp>Category</samp>
| <samp>Amount</samp>
| The [[Modding:Audio#Category list|audio category]], which determines which volume slider in the game options applies. This should be one of <samp>Default</samp>, <samp>Music</samp>, <samp>Sound</samp>, <samp>Ambient</samp>, or <samp>Footsteps</samp> (see [[Modding:Audio#Category list|a description of each category]]). Defaults to <samp>Default</samp>.
| ''(Optional if <samp>RandomAmount</samp> specified)'' The operand applied to the target value (e.g. the multiplier if used with <samp>Multiply</samp>).
|-
|-
| <samp>StreamedVorbis</samp>
| <samp>RandomAmount</samp>
| Whether the audio should be streamed from disk when it's played, instead of being loaded into memory ahead of time. This is only possible for [[wikipedia:Vorbis|Ogg Vorbis]] (<samp>.ogg</samp>) files, which otherwise will be decompressed in-memory on load. Default false.
| ''(Optional)'' A list of possible amounts to randomly choose from. If set, <samp>Amount</samp> is optional and ignored. Each entry in the list has an equal probability of being chosen, and the choice is persisted for the current day. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"RandomAmount": [ 1, 2, 3.5, 4 ]
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
| <samp>Condition</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] which indicates whether this change should be applied. Defaults to always true.
|}
====Modifier mode====
Quality modifier fields are often accompanied by a ''mode'' field (like <samp>PriceModifiers</samp> and <samp>PriceModifierMode</samp>), which indicate what to do when multiple modifiers apply to the same value. Available modes:
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! effect
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>true</samp>
| <samp>Stack</samp>
| Reduces memory usage when the audio cue isn't active, but increases performance impact when it's played. Playing the audio multiple times will multiply the memory and performance impact while they're active, since each play will stream a new instance. Recommended for longer audio cues (like music or ambient noise), or cues that are rarely used in a specific scenario (e.g. a sound that only plays once in an event).
| Apply each modifier to the result of the previous one. For example, two modifiers which double a value will quadruple it.
|-
|-
| <samp>false</samp>
| <samp>Minimum</samp>
| Increases memory usage (since it's fully loaded into memory), but reduces performance impact when it's played. It can be played any number of times without affecting memory or performance (it'll just play the cached audio). Recommended for sound effects, or short audio cues that are played occasionally.
| Apply the modifier which results in the lowest value.
|-
|-
| <samp>Looped</samp>
| <samp>Maximum</samp>
| Whether the audio cue loops continuously until stopped. Default false.
| Apply the modifier which results in the highest value.
|}
|}
====Example====
====Examples====
This content pack adds a new music cue to the game, and plays it when the player enters the bus stop:
For example, this will double the price of a shop item in <samp>Data/Shops</samp>:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"PriceModifiers": [
{
"Modification": "Multiply",
"Amount": 2.0
}
]
</syntaxhighlight>
This will set the price to a random value between 100–1000, ''or'' 3–5 times the item's normal sell price, whichever is higher (like the [[Traveling Cart]]):
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"PriceModifierMode": "Maximum",
"PriceModifiers": [
{
"Modification": "Set",
"RandomAmount": [ 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000 ]
},
{
"Modification": "Multiply",
"RandomAmount": [ 3, 4, 5 ]
}
]
</syntaxhighlight>
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|<nowiki>
===Tokenizable string format===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Tokenizable strings]]|done=true}}
Stardew Valley 1.6 adds ''tokenizable strings'', which support any combination of literal text and token values. That includes a set of built-in tokens like <samp>FarmName</samp>, <samp>LocalizedText</samp>, etc.
For example, previously you often needed to load text from a [[Modding:Common data field types#Translation key|translation key]]. With this new format, you can use the literal text directly in the asset instead (including [[Modding:Content Patcher|Content Patcher]] tokens):
====Other changes====
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
// before
"Dialogue": "Strings\\StringsFromCSFiles:ShopMenu.cs.11488",
// after: any combination of literal text and tokens
: ''See also: [[#Buff overhaul|buff overhaul]].''
"Dialogue": "Welcome to Pierre's, {{PlayerName}}! How is [FarmName] doing?",
</syntaxhighlight>
Tokenizable strings are only usable in specific fields (as indicated in their wiki or code docs).
See [[Modding:Tokenizable strings]] for usage.
===[[Modding:Event data|Event]] changes===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Event data]]|done=false}}
| ''(Optional)'' A [[Modding:Tokenizable strings|tokenizable string]] for the buff name. Default none.
|-
====High-level changes====
* Event IDs are now [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string IDs]], so mods can use a unique key instead of hoping no other mod uses the same number. Unconditional events must have an empty precondition in their key (like <samp>"Example.ModId_EventName/"</samp>) to distinguish them from forks.
* Event/festival commands with a direction argument now allow both case-insensitive names (like <samp>up</samp>) and numeric values.
* Event script errors are now logged (in addition to being shown in the chatbox like before).
* For C# mods:
** You can now add custom event preconditions & commands using new <samp>Event</samp> methods (<samp>RegisterPrecondition</samp>, <samp>RegisterPreconditionAlias</samp>, <samp>RegisterCommand</samp>, and <samp>RegisterCommandAlias</samp>).
** Added <samp>Event.fromAssetName</samp>, which indicates which data asset (if any) the event was loaded from.
** Added <samp>Game1.eventsSeenSinceLastLocationChange</samp> to track the events that played since the player arrived in their current location.
For example, a content pack can [[#Custom crops|add a crop]] with custom fields:
====Precondition changes====
<ul>
<li>Added validation for preconditions. If a format or assumption is invalid, the game now logs a detailed error.</li>
<li>Added case-insensitive readable names for all preconditions. For example, <code>j 4/t 800 1300/a 0 54/H</code> can now optionally be written <code>daysPlayed 4/time 800 1300/tile 0 54/isHost</code>.

|}</li>
</ul>
====Command changes====
<ul>
<li>Added validation for event commands. If a format or assumption is invalid, the game now logs a detailed error and (if applicable) skips the command, instead of crashing or silently ignoring it. This also means event arguments are stricter (e.g. you can no longer set a true/false field to an invalid value, inner quotes in quoted arguments now need to be escaped, etc).</li>
<li>Event commands are now quote-aware, so you can escape spaces and slashes in arguments like <code>/speak "I'm running A/B tests"/</code>.</li>
<li>Event commands now trim surrounding whitespace, so they can be multilined for readability. Line breaks must be before or after the <samp>/</samp> delimiter. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"SomeEventId/": "
none/
-1000 -1000/
farmer 5 7 0/
...
"
</syntaxHighlight>
This can be also combined with the [[Modding:Event data#Comments|comment syntax]] to add notes. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"SomeEventId/": "
none/ -- music/
-1000 -1000/ -- initial viewport position/
farmer 5 7 0/ -- actor positions/
...
"
</syntaxHighlight>
</li>
<li>You can now mark NPCs optional in event commands by suffixing their name with <code>?</code>. For example, <code>jump Kent?</code> won't log an error if Kent is missing. When used in the initial event positions, the NPC is only added in they exist in <samp>Data/Characters</samp> and their <samp>UnlockConditions</samp> match.</li>
<li>Added new event commands:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! command
! description
|-
| <samp>action {{t|action}}</samp>
| Run a [[Modding:Trigger actions|trigger action string]], like <samp>action AddMoney 500</samp> to add {{price|500}} to the current player.
|-
| <samp>addItem {{t|item ID}} {{o|count}} {{o|quality}}</samp>
| Add an item to the player inventory (or open a grab menu if their inventory is full). The {{t|item ID}} is the [[#Custom items|qualified or unqualified item ID]], and {{o|quality}} is a [[Modding:Items#Quality|numeric quality value]].
|-
| <samp>addSpecialOrder {{t|order ID}}</samp><br /><samp>removeSpecialOrder {{t|order ID}}</samp>
| Add or remove a special order to the player team. This affects all players, since special orders are shared.
|-
|-
| <samp>AlternativeTrackIds</samp>
| <samp>eventSeen {{t|event ID}} {{o|seen}}</samp>
| ''(Optional)'' A list of other cue names for this audio track (not case-sensitive). If the player has heard any of these track IDs, this entry is available in the menu. Default none.
| Add or remove an event ID from the player's list of seen events, based on {{o|seen}} (default <samp>true</samp> to add).
An event can mark ''itself'' unseen using <samp>eventSeen {{t|event ID}} false</samp>. This takes effect immediately (i.e. the event won't be added to the list when it completes), but the game will prevent the event from playing again until the player changes location to avoid event loops. The event will still replay when re-entering the location.
|-
| <samp>mailToday {{t|mail key}}</samp>
| Adds a letter to the mailbox immediately, given the {{t|mail key}} in <samp>Data/Mail</samp>.
|-
| <samp>questionAnswered {{t|answer ID}} {{o|answered}}</samp>
| Add or remove an answer ID from the player's list of chosen dialogue answers, based on {{o|answered}} (default <samp>true</samp> to add).
|-
| <samp>replaceWithClone {{t|NPC name}}</samp>
| Replace an NPC already in the event with a temporary copy. This allows changing the NPC for the event without affecting the real NPC.
For example, this event changes Marnie's name/portrait only within the event:
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"{{ModId}}_TrackName": {
"Some.ModId_ExampleEvent/": "continue/64 15/farmer 64 15 2 Marnie 64 17 0/replaceWithClone Marnie/changeName Marnie Pufferchick/changePortrait Marnie Pufferchick/[...]/end"
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight>

|-
| <samp>setSkipActions {{o|actions}}</samp>
| Set [[Modding:Trigger actions|trigger actions]] that should run if the player skips the event. You can list multiple actions delimited with <samp>#</samp>, or omit {{o|actions}} so no actions are run. When the player skips, the last <samp>setSkipActions</samp> before that point is applied.
For example, this adds the [[Garden Pot|garden pot]] recipe and item to the player if the event is skipped, but avoids adding the item if the event already did it:
<pre>
/setSkipActions AddCraftingRecipe Current "Garden Pot"#AddItem (BC)62
/skippable
/...
/addItem (BC)62
/setSkipActions AddCraftingRecipe Current "Garden Pot"
</pre>
Skip actions aren't applied if the event completes normally without being skipped.
|-
| <samp>stopSound {{t|sound ID}} {{o|immediate}}</samp>
| Stop a sound started with the <samp>startSound</samp> command. This has no effect if the sound has already stopped playing on its own (or hasn't been started). If you started multiple sounds with the same ID, this will stop all of them (e.g. <code>startSound fuse/startSound fuse/stopSound fuse</code>).
By default the sound will stop immediately. For looping sounds, you can pass <samp>false</samp> to the {{o|immediate}} argument to stop the sound when it finishes playing the current iteration instead (e.g. <code>stopSound fuse false</code>).

===[[Modding:Mail data|Mail]] changes===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Mail data]]|done=false}}
<ul>
<li>Mail can now have multiple items attached (using multiple <samp>%item</samp> commands). When the player grabs the top item, the next one will appear in the slot to grab next.</li>
<li>Added mail commands:
{| class="wikitable"
* Event IDs are now [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string IDs]], so mods can use a unique key instead of hoping no other mod uses the same number. Unconditional events must have an empty precondition in their key (like <samp>"Example.ModId_EventName/"</samp>) to distinguish them from forks.
|-
* Event/festival commands with a direction argument now allow both case-insensitive names (like <samp>up</samp>) and numeric values.
! command
! effect
|-
| <samp>%action {{t|action}}%%</samp>
| Run a [[Modding:Trigger actions|trigger action string]], like <samp>%action AddMoney 500%%</samp> to add {{price|500}} to the current player.
|}</li>
<li>Improved mail commands:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! command
! changes
|-
| <samp>%item</samp>
|  
* Added <samp>%item id {{t|item id}} {{o|count}}</samp> form which accepts a [[#Custom items|qualified or unqualified item ID]]. If multiple items are listed (''e.g.,'' <samp>%item id (BC)12 3 (O)34 5 %%</samp>) one set will be picked randomly. This deprecates the <samp>bigobject</samp>, <samp>furniture</samp>, <samp>object</samp>, and <samp>tools</samp> options.
* Added <samp>%item specialOrder {{t|order id}} {{o|immediately}}</samp> form to attach a special order to the letter.
* Added optional {{t|key}} argument to <samp>%item cookingRecipe {{t|key}}</samp>, to learn a specific [[Modding:Recipe data|cooking recipe]]. The previous <samp>%item cookingRecipe</samp> form (without a key) works the same way as before.
* The type argument is now case-insensitive.
* Fixed <samp>%item craftingRecipe</samp> not supporting recipe IDs containing underscores. It now checks for an exact match first, then tries replacing underscores with spaces like before, then logs a warning if neither was found instead of adding an invalid recipe.
|}</li>
<li>All wallet items are now tracked via mail flags. That adds these mail flags: <samp>HasClubCard</samp>, <samp>HasDarkTalisman</samp>, <samp>HasDwarvishTranslationGuide</samp>, <samp>HasMagicInk</samp>, <samp>HasMagnifyingGlass</samp>, <samp>HasRustyKey</samp>, <samp>HasSkullKey</samp>, <samp>HasSpecialCharm</samp>, <samp>HasTownKey</samp>, and <samp>HasUnlockedSkullDoor</samp>.</li>
<li>Fixed letter viewer error when opening an invalid letter.</li>
</ul>
===Stat changes for C# mods===
The tracked stats API (e.g. <code>Game1.stats</code> and <code>Game1.player.stats</code>) has been overhauled.
In particular, all stats are now in the underlying stat dictionary. If you use a stat field directly (like <code>stats.dirtHoed</code>), you'll need to use the property (like <code>stats.DirtHoed</code>) or method (like <code>stats.Get(StatsKey.DirtHoed)</code>). This lets the game or mods access all stats in a standard way without reflection. 1.6 also adds <samp>StatsKey</samp> constants for all stats tracked by the game.
The <samp>stats</samp> API has also been redesigned:
<ul>
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! member
! comments
|-
| <samp>Values</samp>
| The numeric metrics tracked by the game. This replaces <samp>stats_dictionary</samp>.
|-
| <samp>Get(key)</samp>
| Get the value of a tracked stat. This replaces <samp>getStat</samp>.
For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
uint daysPlayed = Game1.stats.Get(StatKeys.DaysPlayed);
</syntaxhighlight>
</pre>
</pre>
</li>
<li>Event & preconditions are now quote-aware, so you can escape spaces and slashes in arguments like <code>/G "SEASON Spring"/</code>.</li>
|-
|-
| <samp>Set(key, value)</samp>
| Set the new value of a tracked stat. This method is new.
For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
Game1.stats.Set(StatKeys.ChildrenTurnedToDoves, 5);
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>!</samp>
| <samp>Increment(key)</samp><br /><samp>Increment(key, amount)</samp>
| Prefixing <samp>!</samp> to any other precondition will now invert it. For example, <code>!spouse Abigail</code> will match if the player is ''not'' married to Abigail.
| Add the given amount to the stat (default 1), and return the new stat value. This improves on the original <samp>incrementStat</samp>.
For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
uint stepsTaken = Game1.stats.Increment(StatKeys.StepsTaken);
</syntaxhighlight>
|}
This can also be used to track custom mod stats, they doesn't need to be stats normally tracked by the game. Custom stats should be prefixed with your mod's unique ID to avoid conflicts:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
Game1.stats.Set("Your.ModId_CustomStat", 5);
</syntaxhighlight>
And finally, setting a stat to 0 now removes it from the stats dictionary (since that's the default for missing stats).
===New C# utility methods===
Stardew Valley 1.6 adds several new methods to simplify common logic.
====Argument handling====
The new <samp>ArgUtility</samp> class handles splitting, reading, and validating <samp>string[]</samp> argument lists. The main methods are:
; Splitting arrays:
: {| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! <samp>ArgUtility</samp> method
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>DayOfWeek {{t|day}}+</samp>
| <samp>SplitBySpace</samp>
| Today is one of the specified days (may specify multiple days). This can be a case-insensitive three-letter abbreviation (like <samp>Mon</samp>) or full name (like <samp>Monday</samp>).
| Split space-separated arguments in a string. This automatically ignores extra spaces, so <samp>" x y "</samp> and <samp>"x y"</samp> are equivalent. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
string[] fields = ArgUtility.SplitBySpace("a b c");
string secondField = fields[1]; // "b"
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>FestivalDay</samp>
| <samp>SplitBySpaceAndGet</samp>
| Today is a [[Festivals|festival]] day.
| Get the value at an index in a space-delimited string (if found), else return the default value. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
string thirdField = ArgUtility.SplitBySpaceAndGet("a b c", 2); // "c"
string invalidFieldA = ArgUtility.SplitBySpaceAndGet("a b c", 5); // null
string invalidFieldB = ArgUtility.SplitBySpaceAndGet("a b c", 5, defaultValue: "boop"); // "boop"
</syntaxhighlight>
This is more efficient than <samp>SplitBySpace</samp> when you only need a single value, but it's slower if you need multiple values.
|-
|-
| <samp>GameStateQuery {{t|query}}</samp>
| <samp>SplitBySpaceQuoteAware</samp>
| A [[Modding:Game state queries|game state query]] matches, like <code>G !WEATHER Here Sun</code> for 'not sunny in this location'.
| Split space-separated arguments in a string, with support for using quotes to protect spaces within an argument. See <samp>SplitQuoteAware</samp> below for info on quote handling.
For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
string buildingName = ArgUtility.SplitBySpaceQuoteAware("BUILDINGS_CONSTRUCTED Here \"Junimo Hut\"")[1]; // Junimo Hut
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>Season {{t|season}}+</samp>
| <samp>SplitQuoteAware</samp>
| The current season is one of the given values (may specify multiple seasons).
| Split delimited arguments in a string, with support for using quotes to protect delimiters within an argument.
A quote in the text causes any delimiter to be ignored until the next quote, unless it's escaped like <code>\"</code>. Unescaped quotes are removed from the string. (Remember that backslashes need to be escaped in C# or JSON strings, like <code>"\\"</code> for a single backslash.)
For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
ArgUtility.SplitQuoteAware("A,B,C", ','); // [ "A", "B", "C" ]
ArgUtility.SplitQuoteAware("A,\"B,C\",D", ','); // [ "A", "B,C", "D" ]
ArgUtility.SplitQuoteAware("A,\\\"B,C", ','); // [ "A", "\"B", "C" ]
</syntaxhighlight>
You can also set the optional arguments for more advanced cases. For example, [[Modding:Game state queries|game state queries]] use this to split twice:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
string gameStateQuery = "BUILDINGS_CONSTRUCTED Here \"Junimo Hut\", SEASON Spring";
string[] queries = ArgUtility.SplitQuoteAware(gameStateQuery, ',', StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries, keepQuotesAndEscapes: true); // [ "BUILDINGS_CONSTRUCTED Here \"Junimo Hut\"", "SEASON Spring" ]
string buildingName = ArgUtility.SplitBySpaceQuoteAware(queries[0]); // Junimo Hut
</syntaxhighlight>

| <samp>UnsplitQuoteAware</samp>
| A [[Festivals|festival]] day will occur within the given number of days.
| Combine an array of arguments into a single string with a custom delimiter, using quotes where needed to escape delimiters within an argument. Calling <samp>SplitQuoteAware</samp> on the resulting string with the same delimiter will produce the original values.
For example:

<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
string args = ArgUtility.UnsplitQuoteAware(new[] { "A", "B C", "D" }, ' '); // A "B C" D
</syntaxhighlight>
This isn't idempotent (e.g. calling it twice will result in double-escaped quotes).

| Get the value at a position in an array, parsed as the relevant type (e.g. a string, boolean, [[Modding:Event data#Directions|direction]], enum, etc). If the index isn't in the array or the value can't be parsed as the expected type, returns a default value.
For example, code like this:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
int value = fields.Length > 4 && int.TryParse(fields[4], out int parsed)

|-
| <samp>action {{t|action}}</samp>
| <samp>LocalizedContentManager.DoesAssetExist</samp>
| Run a [[Modding:Trigger actions|trigger action string]], like <samp>action AddMoney 500</samp> to add {{price|500}} to the current player.
| Get whether an asset exists in the game's <samp>Content</samp> folder or is provided through [[Modding:Modder Guide/APIs/Content|SMAPI's content API]]. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
bool exists = Game1.content.DoesAssetExist<Map>("Maps/Town");
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>addItem {{t|item ID}} {{o|count}} {{o|quality}}</samp>
| <samp>LocalizedContentManager.IsValidTranslationKey</samp>
| Get whether a string is a translation key in the form <samp>{{t|asset name}}:{{t|key}}</samp>, and the asset and key both exist. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
bool exists = Game1.content.IsValidTranslationKey("Strings\\NPCNames:Abigail");
</syntaxhighlight>
|}
====Filtering====
The game now has an optimized <samp>RemoveWhere</samp> method for O(n) filtering on <samp>NetCollection</samp>, <samp>NetDictionary</samp>, <samp>NetList</samp>, and (via extension) <samp>IDictionary</samp>. This also deprecates <samp>Filter</samp> methods where they existed.
For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
int dirtTilesRemoved = Game1.currentLocation.terrainFeatures.RemoveWhere(pair => pair.Value is HoeDirt);
</syntaxhighlight>
====Game paths====
The game folder paths were previously hardcoded throughout the code. These are now centralized with a few methods:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! method
! effect
|-
|-
| <samp>eventSeen {{t|event ID}} {{o|seen}}</samp>
| <samp>Program.GetLocalAppDataFolder</samp><br /><samp>Program.GetAppDataFolder</samp>
| Add or remove an event ID from the player's list of seen events, based on {{o|seen}} (default <samp>true</samp> to add).
| Get the absolute path to the game's app data folder (which contains the [[saves|<Samp>Saves</samp> folder]]) or local app data folder (which contains <samp>ErrorLogs</samp> and <samp>Screenshots</samp>). These methods are equivalent on Windows, but different on Linux/macOS.
|-
|-
| <samp>mailToday {{t|mail key}}</samp>
| <samp>Program.GetSavesFolder</samp>
| Adds a letter to the mailbox immediately, given the {{t|mail key}} in <samp>Data/Mail</samp>.
| Get the absolute path to the game's [[saves|<samp>Saves</samp> folder]].
|-
|-
| <samp>questionAnswered {{t|answer ID}} {{o|answered}}</samp>
| <samp>Game1.GetScreenshotFolder</samp>
| Add or remove an answer ID from the player's list of chosen dialogue answers, based on {{o|answered}} (default <samp>true</samp> to add).
| Get the absolute path to the game's <samp>Screenshots</samp> folder.
|-
|-
| <samp>replaceWithClone {{t|NPC name}}</samp>
| <samp>options.GetFilePathForDefaultOptions</samp>
| Replace an NPC already in the event with a temporary copy. This allows changing the NPC for the event without affecting the real NPC.
| Get the absolute path to the game's <samp>default_options</samp> file.
|}
====Hash sets====
Since the [[#Hash set fields|game now uses hash sets]], it has a few extensions for working with them:
{| class="wikitable"
<pre>
|-
/setSkipActions AddCraftingRecipe Current "Garden Pot"#AddItem (BC)62
! method
! effect
|-
| <samp>AddRange</samp>
| Add all the values from a list or enumerable to the set.
</pre>
|-
| <samp>RemoveWhere</samp>
| Remove all values matching a condition.
|-
| <samp>Toggle</samp>
| Add or remove a value in the set based on a boolean. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
public bool hasClubCard
{
get { return mailReceived.Contains("HasClubCard"); }
set { mailReceived.Toggle("HasClubCard", value); }
}
</syntaxhighlight>
|}
====Iteration====
The new <samp>Utility.ForEach*</samp> methods let you check every thing of a type in the game world quickly and efficiently (with minimal allocations, boxing, etc). These are significantly faster than equivalent code using LINQ or <samp>yield</samp> methods.
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! index

|-
|-
| <samp>Utility.ForEachBuilding</samp>
| <samp>texture</samp>
| Perform an action for each building in the game world.
| The asset name for texture to draw.
|-
|-
| 1–4
| <samp>Utility.ForEachCharacter</samp><br /><samp>Utility.ForEachVillager</samp>
| Perform an action for each NPC in the game world. <samp>ForEachCharacter</samp> matches all NPC types (villagers, horses, pets, monsters, player children, etc), while <samp>ForEachVillager</samp> only matches villager NPCs like [[Abigail]].
| The pixel area within the <samp>texture</samp> to draw, in the form <samp>{{t|x}} {{t|y}} {{t|width}} {{t|height}}</samp>.
|-
|-
| <samp>Utility.ForEachCrop</samp>
| <samp>interval</samp>
| Perform an action for each crop in the game world planted in the ground or in a [[Garden Pot|garden pot]].
| The millisecond duration for each frame in the animation.
|-
|-
| <samp>Utility.ForEachItem</samp>
| <samp>frames</samp>
| Perform an action for each item in the game world, including items within items (e.g. in a chest or on a table), hats placed on children, items in player inventories, etc.
| The number of frames in the animation.
|-
|-
| <samp>Utility.ForEachItemIn</samp>
| <samp>loops</samp>
| Perform an action for each item within a given location, including items within items (e.g. in a chest or on a table).
| The number of times to repeat the animation.
|-
|-
| <samp>Utility.ForEachLocation</samp>
| <samp>tile</samp>
| Perform an action for each location in the game world, optionally including building interiors and generated [[The Mines|mine]] or [[Volcano Dungeon|volcano]] levels.
| The tile position at which to draw the sprite, in the form <samp>{{t|x}} {{t|y}}</samp>.
|}
For example, this code counts how many parsnips are planted everywhere in the world:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
int parsnips = 0;
Utility.ForEachCrop(crop =>
{
if (crop.IndexOfHarvest == "24")
parsnips++;
return true; // whether to keep iterating after this crop
});
</syntaxhighlight>
Or you could replace all instances of an obsolete item with a new one:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
Utility.ForEachItem((item, remove, replaceWith) =>
{
if (item.QualifiedItemId == "(O)OldId")
{
Item newItem = ItemRegistry.Create("(O)NewId", item.Stack, item.Quality);
replaceWith(newItem);
}
return true;
});
</syntaxhighlight>
C# mods which add custom item types can override <samp>Item.ForEachItem</samp> to add support for nested items.
====Randomization====
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! method

|-
|-
| <samp>Utility.CreateDaySaveRandom</samp>
| <samp>flip</samp>
| Creates a <samp>Random</samp> instance using the most common seed (based on the save ID and total days played).
| Whether to flip the sprite horizontally when it's drawn (one of <samp>true</samp> or <samp>false</samp>).
|-
|-
| 12
| <samp>Utility.CreateRandom</samp><br /><samp>Utility.CreateRandomSeed</samp>

| Get an RNG which produces identical results for all RNGs created with the same sync key during the given interval (one of <samp>tick</samp>, <samp>day</samp>, <samp>season</samp>, or <samp>year</samp>), including between players in multiplayer mode.
| Fades out the sprite based on alpha set. The larger the number, the faster the fade out. 1 is instant.
For example, this will return the same number each time it's called until the in-game day changes:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
public int GetDailyRandomNumber()
{
Utility.TryCreateIntervalRandom("day", "example sync key", out Random random, out _);
return random.Next();
}
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-

</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>random.ChooseFrom</samp>
| <samp>rotation</samp>
| Choose a random option from a list or array:
| The rotation to apply to the sprite, measured in [[wikipedia:radians|radians]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
string[] names = new[] { "Abigail", "Penny", "Sam" };
string npcName = Game1.random.ChooseFrom(names);
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>random.NextBool</samp>
| <samp>rotation change</samp>
| Randomly choose <samp>true</samp> or <samp>false</samp>. For example:
| Continuously rotates the sprite, causing it to spin. The speed is determined by input value.
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
bool flipSprite = Game1.random.NextBool();
</syntaxhighlight>
You can optionally set the probability of <samp>true</samp>:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
bool flipSprite = Game1.random.NextBool(0.8);

| Get all farmhands who aren't connected to the game.
|}
|-
|-
| <samp>Game1.PerformActionWhenPlayerFree</samp>
| Calls the provided callback next time the player is free (e.g. no menu or event is up, not using a tool, etc). If the player is already free, it's run immediately.
For example, if you receive your first geode from a fishing chest, this is used to show the geode-received animation & animation when it closes.
|-
|-
| <samp>addCookingRecipe</samp>

|-
|-
| <samp>animate</samp>
| <samp>Utility.DrawErrorTexture</samp>
| Underscores in the NPC name are now only replaced with spaces if an exact match wasn't found. You should quote arguments containing spaces instead, like <code>animate "Mr Qi" …</code>.
| Draw the game's missing-texture image (🚫) to the screen, stretched to fit a given pixel area.
|-
|-
| <samp>ambientLight</samp>
| <samp>Utility.DrawSquare</samp>
| Removed four-argument form (which was unused and had confusing behavior). The other versions of <samp>ambientLight</samp> still work like before.
| Draw a square to the screen with a background color and/or borders.
|-
|-
| <samp>awardFestivalPrize</samp>
| <samp>Utility.GetEnumOrDefault</samp>
| Added support for arbitrary item IDs, like <code>awardFestivalPrize (O)128</code> for a pufferfish.
| Get an enum value if it's valid, else get a default value. This is mainly used to validate input from data files.
For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
NpcGender gender = (NPCGender)999999;
gender = Utility.GetEnumOrDefault(gender, Gender.Male); // returns Gender.Male since there's no enum constant with value 999999

| <samp>Utility.getRandomNpcFromHomeRegion</samp>
| It now updates the event position offset if needed.
| Get a random social NPC based on their <samp>HomeRegion</samp> value in [[#Custom NPCs|<samp>Data/Characters</samp>]]. For example, this gets a random NPC for the <samp>Town</samp> home region:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
NPC npc = Utility.getRandomNpcFromHomeRegion(NPC.region_town);
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>changeName</samp>
| <samp>Utility.isFestivalDay</samp>
| Underscores in the NPC name are no longer replaced with spaces. You should quote arguments containing spaces instead, like <code>changeName Leo "Neo Leo"</code>.
| This method existed before 1.6, but you can now omit arguments to check today instead of a specific date:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
bool festivalToday = Utility.isFestivalToday();

|-
|-
| <samp>ignoreMovementAnimation</samp>
| <samp>Utility.TryParseDirection</samp>

| Parse a string into a direction value (like <samp>Game1.down</samp>), if it's valid. This supports case-insensitive direction names (one of <samp>down</samp>, <samp>left</samp>, <samp>right</samp>, or <samp>up</samp>) or [[Modding:Event data#Directions|numeric values]].
|-
|-
| <samp>itemAboveHead</samp>
| <samp>Utility.TryParseEnum</samp>
| Added support for arbitrary item IDs, like <code>itemAboveHead (O)128</code> for a pufferfish.
| Parse a string into an enum value if possible, case-insensitively. Unlike [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.enum.tryparse <samp>Enum.TryParse</samp>], an invalid numeric value won't be cast:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
Enum.TryParse("999999", out DayOfWeek day); // true, even though there's no matching DayOfWeek value
Utility.TryParseEnum("999999", out DayOfWeek day); // false
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
|-
| <samp>makeInvisible</samp>
| <samp>Utility.fuzzyCompare</samp>
| Fixed terrain features not hidden when using the default area size.
| Get whether a term is a fuzzy match for a search query. Returns the numeric match priority (where lower values are a better match), or null if the term doesn't match the query.
|-
|-
| <samp>playSound</samp>
| <samp>rectangle.GetPoints</samp><br /><samp>rectangle.GetVectors</samp>
| Sounds started via <samp>playSound</samp> now stop automatically when the event ends.
| Get all the integer coordinates within a given <samp>Rectangle</samp>. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
var tileArea = new Rectangle(0, 0, 2, 2);
Point[] tiles = tileArea.GetPoints(); // (0, 0), (1, 0), (0, 1), (1, 1)

|-
|-
| <samp>removeItem</samp>
| <samp>Utility.GetDeterministicHashCode</samp>
| Added argument for an optional count, like <code>removeItem (O)128 10</code> to remove 10 pufferfish.
| ''(Specialized)'' Get a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function hash code] for a string key or numeric values. Unlike [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.object.gethashcode <samp>string.GetHashCode</samp>] or [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.hashcode.combine <samp>HashCode.Combine</samp>], this produces a consistent hash for the same inputs between sessions and connected players.
|-
|-
| <samp>speak</samp>
| <samp>Utility.WrapIndex</samp>
| Fixed friendship & socialize quest not updated when calling it with a translation key.
| Constrain an index to a range by wrapping out-of-bounds values to the other side (e.g. last index + 1 is the first index, and first index - 1 is the last one).
For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
string[] values = new[] { "0", "1", "2" };
int index = Utility.WrapIndex(-1, values.Length); // 2
</syntaxhighlight>
|}
|}
====Festival changes====
===Static delegate builder===
For C# mods, <samp>StaticDelegateBuilder</samp> is a specialized class which converts a method name into an optimized delegate which can be called by code. This is used by vanilla code to optimize methods referenced in assets like [[#Custom machines|<samp>Data/Machines</samp>]].
For example, given a static method like this:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
public static bool OutputDeconstructor(Object machine, Item inputItem, bool probe, MachineItemOutput outputData, out int? overrideMinutesUntilReady) { ... }
</syntaxhighlight>
====Send-mail (<samp>x</samp>) precondition deprecated====
And a delegate which matches it:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
public delegate bool MachineOutputDelegate(Object machine, Item inputItem, bool probe, MachineItemOutput outputData, out int? overrideMinutesUntilReady);
</syntaxhighlight>
You can create an optimized delegate and call it like this:
{| class="wikitable"
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
if (StaticDelegateBuilder.TryCreateDelegate("StardewValley.Object.OutputDeconstructor", out MachineOutputDelegate method, out string error))
return method(this, inputItem, probe, outputData, out minutesUntilMorning);
else
Game1.log.Warn($"Machine {ItemId} has invalid output method: {error}");
</syntaxhighlight>
The <samp>TryCreateDelegate</samp> method will cache created delegates, so calling it again will just return the same delegate instance.
===Game logging changes===
The game now writes debug output through an internal <samp>Game1.log</samp> wrapper, instead of using <samp>Console.WriteLine</samp> directly. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
// old code
Console.WriteLine("Error playing sound: " + ex);
// new code
Game1.log.Error("Error playing sound.", ex);
</syntaxhighlight>
This has a few benefits:
* For vanilla players, the game no longer uses time & resources writing to a console that's not visible anyway.
* For modded players, SMAPI can now...
** distinguish between the game's debug/warn/error messages (so many warnings/errors that would previously appear as hidden <samp>TRACE</samp> messages will now be shown with the correct level);
** apply its formatting rules to exceptions logged by the game too;
** redirect game output much more efficiently without console interception.
===Other changes===
====Audio====
<ul>
<li>Added <samp>Game1.sounds</samp>, which unifies the high-level sound effect logic (e.g. distance fading and multiplayer sync).</li>
<li>Added <samp>silence</samp> [[Modding:Audio|audio cue]] for music. This is different from <samp>none</samp> in that it suppresses both town music and ambient sounds.</li>
<li>Added <samp>Game1.soundBank.Exists(cueName)</samp> method to check if an audio cue exists.</li>
<li>Added <samp>Game1.playSound</samp> overloads to get the audio cue being played.</li>
<li>Added <samp>character.playNearbySoundAll</samp> and <samp>playNearbySoundAllLocal</samp> methods to play a sound for players near the player/character.</li>
<li>Added position argument to <samp>DelayedAction.playSoundAfterDelay</samp>.</li>
<li>Removed <samp>NetAudioCueManager</samp> and <samp>Game1.locationCues</samp> (unused).</li>
<li>Unified the methods for playing normal/pitched/positional sounds (which also adds support for pitched non-synced & pitched positional sounds):

| <samp>75</samp>
| <samp>action {{t|action}}</samp>
| <samp>Mail_Dad_120K</samp>

| <samp>Mail_Pierre_Fertilizers</samp>
| Immediately end the current event or festival, applying the event's skip logic (if any). The event is marked seen, but you can rewatch it using the <samp>eventById</samp> command if needed.
This replaces the pre-1.6 commands (<samp>ee</samp>, <samp>endEvent</samp>/<samp>leaveEvent</samp>, and <samp>eventOver</samp>) which worked in different ways and had side-effects like restarting the event or clearing the player's mail.
|-
|-
| <samp>707</samp>
| <samp>exportShops</samp>
| <samp>Mail_Pierre_FertilizersHighQuality</samp>

|-
| <samp>clearFurniture</samp>
| Now works outside the farmhouse too.
|-
| <samp>dialogue</samp>
| Removed custom space handling; quote NPC names containing spaces instead, with all text after the first argument treated as part of the dialogue (e.g. <code>debug dialogue "Some NPC" Some dialogue text$h</code>).
|-
| <samp>ebi</samp>
| Fixed event not played correctly if called from the same location as the event.
|-
| <samp>fish</samp>
| Fixed error if you're not holding a fishing rod. It now opens the fishing minigame with no tackle instead.
|-
|-
| <samp>frameOffset</samp>
|  
* Simplified usage. You can now pass negative offsets directly (like <samp>debug frameOffset -5 -10</samp>) instead of using the <samp>s</samp> number prefix.
* Fixed command only taking the last digit in each number.
|-

| <samp>Set(key, value)</samp>
| <samp>growAnimals</samp><br /><samp>growAnimalsFarm</samp>
| Set the new value of a tracked stat. This method is new.

| Fixed zeros in the mail ID getting replaced with underscores.
|-
|-
| <samp>monster</samp>
| Added validation for the monster name.
|-
|-
| <samp>SplitBySpace</samp>
| <samp>moveBuilding</samp>
| Split space-separated arguments in a string. This automatically ignores extra spaces, so <samp>" x y "</samp> and <samp>"x y"</samp> are equivalent. For example:
| Now applies to the current location, instead of the farm.
|-
|-
| <samp>SplitBySpaceAndGet</samp>
| <samp>movie</samp>
| Get the value at an index in a space-delimited string (if found), else return the default value. For example:
| Rewritten; it's now simpler, applies the normal game logic, defaults to today's movie, and avoids depending on NPC indexes in <samp>Data/NPCDispositions</samp> since those can change with custom NPCs.
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
New usage:
: ''<samp>debug movie {{o|movie ID}} {{o|invite NPC name}}''
: ''<samp>debug movie current {{o|invite NPC name}}''
</syntaxhighlight>
The movie ID defaults to today's movie, and the NPC name can be omitted to watch the movie without an invitee. Specifying <samp>current</samp> as the movie uses the default value.
|-
|-
| <samp>SplitBySpaceQuoteAware</samp>
| <samp>panMode</samp>
| Split space-separated arguments in a string, with support for using quotes to protect spaces within an argument. See <samp>SplitQuoteAware</samp> below for info on quote handling.
| The command no longer overrides debug command handling while it's active. Instead you can now turn it back off by running <samp>debug panMode</samp> again, clear with <samp>debug panMode clear</samp>, or set a time with <samp>debug panMode {time}</samp>.

* Added validation for the target building.
|-
|-
| <samp>EscapeQuotes</samp>
| <samp>playSound</samp>
| Escape quotes in a string so they're ignored by methods like <samp>SplitQuoteAware</samp>.
| Added an optional pitch argument, like <samp>debug playSound barrelBreak 1200</samp>. The pitch is a value from 1 (low pitch) to 2400 (high pitch) inclusively.
|-
|-
| <samp>UnsplitQuoteAware</samp>
| <samp>question</samp>
| Combine an array of arguments into a single string with a custom delimiter, using quotes where needed to escape delimiters within an argument. Calling <samp>SplitQuoteAware</samp> on the resulting string with the same delimiter will produce the original values.
| You can now forget a selected answer (instead of adding it) by setting the second argument to false, like <samp>question {{t|id}} false</samp>.

| <samp>skinBuilding</samp>
| Try to get a parsed value from an array by its index. If it's not found or can't be converted to the expected value, it sets the <samp>out string error</samp> argument so you can log an error if needed.
|  
* Now applies to the current location, instead of the farm.

| <samp>skullGear</samp>
| Equivalent to <samp>TryGet*</samp>, except that it'll return a default value if the argument is missing. For example:

</ul>
</syntaxhighlight>
====Iteration====
====Location logic====
The new <samp>Utility.ForEach*</samp> methods let you check every thing of a type in the game world quickly and efficiently (with minimal allocations, boxing, etc). These are significantly faster than equivalent code using LINQ or <samp>yield</samp> methods.
* The [[desert]] no longer assumes the player arrived by bus unless their previous location was the [[Bus Stop|bus stop]].
* The ticket price for the bus and Willy's boat can now be edited by C# mods via <samp>BusStop.TicketPrice</samp> and <samp>BoatTunnel.TicketPrice</samp> respectively.
====Menus & UI====
* Rewrote calendar menu (<samp>Billboard</samp>) to simplify custom events & event types. C# mods can now edit <samp>billboard.calendarDayData</samp> or patch <samp>billboard.GetEventsForDay</samp> to add new events.
* Added <samp>Game1.textShadowDarkerColor</samp> field for the colors previously hardcoded in <samp>Utility.drawTextWithShadow</samp>.
* Added <samp>MoneyDial.ShouldShakeMainMoneyBox</samp> field to simplify custom dials.
* Partly de-hardcoded <samp>ShopMenu</samp> filter tabs. You can now change filter tabs by setting the <samp>shopMenu.tabButtons</samp> field with arbitrary <samp>Func<ISalable, bool> Filter</samp> values, or by using a predefined set of tabs like <samp>shopMenu.UseDresserTabs()</samp>.
* The <samp>SpriteText</samp> methods now accept arbitrary <samp>Color</samp> tints instead of a few predefined color IDs.
* The <samp>DiscreteColorPicker.getColorFromSelection</samp> methods are now static for reuse.
* Fixed <samp>DiscreteColorPicker</samp> constructor ignoring the initial color argument, and added a constructor which takes a <samp>Color</samp> value.
* Fixed an edge case where a custom language's fonts wouldn't be loaded when switching language.
====[[Modding:Modder Guide/Game Fundamentals#Net fields|Net fields]]====
* Removed implicit conversion operators for most types due to their sometimes counter-intuitive behavior. The only ones left are <samp>NetBool</samp>, <samp>NetInt</samp>, and <samp>NetString</samp>; those are now marked obsolete and will raise build warnings on use.
* <samp>NetLocationRef</samp> now has a public <samp>LocationName</samp> and <samp>IsStructure</samp>, and its <samp>Update</samp> method allows forcing an update.
</syntaxhighlight>
====Quests====
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Quest data]]|done=false}}
* Quests now have string IDs, to simplify custom quest frameworks.
* Added validation for quest data parsing.
</syntaxhighlight>
* In [[Modding:Special orders|<samp>Data/SpecialOrders</samp>]], the <samp>Duration</samp> and <samp>Repeatable</samp> fields are now strongly-typed and case-insensitive.
C# mods which add custom item types can override <samp>Item.ForEachItem</samp> to add support for nested items.
* For C# mods, fixed <samp>DescriptionElement</samp> not allowing more than four translation token substitutions.
====Randomization====
====Dates & seasons====
* Added a <samp>Season</samp> enum for strongly-typed, case-insensitive season checks (like <code>Game1.season == Season.Spring</code> instead of <code>Game1.currentSeason == "spring"</code>).
* Added <samp>Game1.season</samp>, <samp>Game1.GetSeasonForLocation</samp>, <samp>Game1.WorldDate.Season</samp>, and <samp>location.GetSeason()</samp> to get the season enum.
* Added <samp>Utility.getSeasonKey</samp> to get the key form from a season enum.
* Improved <samp>WorldDate</samp>:
** added <samp>Now()</samp> to get a new instance matching the current date;
** added <samp>WorldDate.Equals</samp> and <samp>GetHashCode</samp> implementations;
** added code docs;
** <samp>TotalDays</samp> is no longer written to the save file.
* Renamed some members for clarity (<samp>Game1.GetSeasonForLocation</samp> → <samp>GetSeasonKeyForLocation</samp>, <samp>location.GetSeasonForLocation</samp> → <samp>GetSeasonKey</samp>, <samp>WorldDate.Season</samp> → <samp>SeasonKey</samp>).
* Fixed <samp>location.GetSeasonKey()</samp> not applying the greenhouse logic.
For example, this will return the same number each time it's called until the in-game day changes:
====Time====
* For C# mods, the <samp>Game1.realMilliSecondsPerGame</samp> and <samp>Game1.realMilliSecondsPerGameTenMinutes</samp> fields are no longer marked <samp>const</samp>, and the <samp>GameLocation.getExtraMillisecondsPerInGameMinuteForThisLocation()</samp> method has been replaced with a settable <samp>ExtraMillisecondsPerInGameMinute</samp> property. That lets you change the time rate used by the vanilla game code, but you should be careful doing this since it may cause unintended effects.
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight>
====Other====
====Other====
* Error stack traces on Linux/macOS now have line numbers.
* All space-delimited fields now ignore extra spaces instead of crashing. This affects map/tile properties, data assets, event commands, game state queries, etc.
* All players and NPCs now have <samp>Tile</samp> & <samp>TilePoint</samp> properties (their cached tile position) and a <samp>StandingPixel</samp> property (the cached pixel coordinate at the center of their bounding box). These [[#Other breaking API changes|replace various deleted methods]].
* All terrain features now have <samp>Tile</samp> and <samp>Location</samp> properties, and their methods no longer have location/tile parameters in most cases.
* All [[Modding:Modder Guide/Game Fundamentals#Net fields|net fields]] now have <samp>Name</samp> and <samp>Owner</samp> fields, which are used to show informative error messages when there's a sync issue and validate common mistakes (e.g. a net field not added to the <samp>NetFields</samp> collection).
* The game now tracks the locations a player has visited. Mods can check the list in C# (via <samp>Game1.player.locationsVisited</samp>) or [[Modding:Game state queries|game state queries]] (via <samp>PLAYER_VISITED_LOCATION</samp>). For pre-existing saves, the list is retroactively populated based on accessible locations, events seen, mail flags set, etc.
* Added menu queuing (via <samp>Game1.nextClickableMenu</samp> in C#). For example, this applies if you try to take an item from a mail letter when your inventory is full.
* Added C# code docs in many places.
* Added <samp>Id</samp> fields to simplify content pack edits in fish pond, movie concession, random bundle, and tailoring recipe data.
* Added <samp>Game1.Multiplayer</samp> to get the game's low-level handler. (Most code should still use [[Modding:Modder Guide/APIs/Multiplayer|SMAPI's multiplayer API]] though.)
* Added <samp>Game1.versionBuildNumber</samp> with the build number (like <samp>26039</samp>).
* Added field-changed events to <samp>NetPosition</samp>.
* Added <samp>LocalizedContentManager.CurrentLanguageString</samp>, which caches the language code like <samp>pt-BR</samp>).
* The game now uses <samp>[XmlInclude]</samp> on its types more consistently. That means the default save serializer can handle more types (e.g. all monsters), and it's easier to create custom serializers.
* Refactored many parts of the code to make it more moddable for C# mods. This includes marking all classes public, changing <samp>private</samp> members to <samp>protected</samp> or <samp>public</samp>, marking members <samp>virtual</samp>, rewriting or splitting code so it's easier to extend, etc.
* The <samp>startup_preferences</samp> file is now formatted to simplify troubleshooting.
* Fixed many cases where the game used <samp>Game1.player</samp> instead of the provided player.
==Breaking changes for C# mods==
'''This section only describes how this update may break existing mods. See the ''what's new'' sections above for more info, including new functionality mods can use.'''
See also [[#Breaking changes for content packs|''Breaking changes for content packs'']], which affect C# mods too.
===.NET 6===
: ''See also: [[#.NET 6|.NET 6]] under what's new.''
Stardew Valley 1.6 updates from .NET 5 to .NET 6. SMAPI can still load .NET 5 mods fine, but you'll get a build error when compiling them. To update a C# mod:
<ol>
<li>Make sure you have [https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs Visual Studio Community 2022] or later. (Compiling .NET 6 with earlier versions of Visual Studio isn't officially supported.)</li>
<li>In Visual Studio, click ''Help > Check For Updates'' and install the latest version.</li>
<li>Fully exit Visual Studio.</li>
<li>Open each mod's <samp>.csproj</samp> file in a text editor, then find this line:
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<TargetFramework>net5.0</TargetFramework>
</syntaxhighlight>
And change it to this:
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<TargetFramework>net6.0</TargetFramework>
</syntaxhighlight>
</li>
<li>Delete your solution's hidden <samp>.vs</samp> folder, and every project's <samp>bin</samp> and <samp>obj</samp> folders.</li>
<li>Reopen the solution in Visual Studio, click ''Build > Rebuild Solution'', and make sure it still loads into the game fine.</li>
</ol>
===Item ID changes===
: ''See also: [[#Custom items|custom items in what's new]].''
The [[#Custom items|main <samp>Item</samp> properties have changed]]. To migrate existing code:
<ul>
<li>Don't use <samp>ParentSheetIndex</samp> to compare items. For example, <samp>item.ParentSheetIndex == 0</samp> will match both [[weeds]] and any custom item whose sprite is the first one in its custom spritesheet. You should compare items using [[#Custom items|their new <samp>ItemId</samp> and <samp>QualifiedItemId</samp> properties]] instead. For example, here's how to migrate various common forms:
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! method
! old code
! effect
! new code
|-
|-
|-
|-
| <samp>Game1.PerformActionWhenPlayerFree</samp>
| <samp>item.ParentSheetIndex == 848</samp>
| Calls the provided callback next time the player is free (e.g. no menu or event is up, not using a tool, etc). If the player is already free, it's run immediately.
| <samp>item.QualifiedItemId == "(O)848"</samp>
|-
|-
| <samp>Game1.createRadialDebris_MoreNatural</samp>
| <samp>IsNormalObjectAtParentSheetIndex(item, 74)</samp>
| Scatter item debris around a position with a more randomized distribution than <samp>createRadialDebris</samp>.
| <samp>item.QualifiedItemId == "(O)74"</samp>
|-
|-
| <samp>Object.GetCategoryColor</samp><br /><samp>Object.GetCategoryDisplayName</samp>
| <samp>!item.bigCraftable && item.ParentSheetIndex == 128</samp>
| <samp>item.QualifiedItemId == "(O)128"</samp>
|-
|-
| <samp>Utility.distanceFromScreen</samp>
| <samp>item is Boots && item.ParentSheetIndex == 505</samp>
| Get the pixel distance between a position in the world and the player's screen viewport, where 0 is within the viewport.
| <samp>item.QualifiedItemId == "(B)505"</samp>
|-
|}</li>
<li>Don't assume item sprites are in the vanilla spritesheets. For example, instead of rendering <samp>Game1.objectSpriteSheet</samp> for an object, call <code>ItemRegistry.GetMetadata(item.QualifiedItemId).GetTexture()</code> to get its texture.</li>
<li>Creating items works just like before, except that you now specify the item's <samp>ItemId</samp> (''not'' <samp>QualifiedItemId</samp>) instead of its <samp>ParentSheetIndex</samp>. This is the same value for vanilla items. For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
new Object("634", 1); // vanilla item
new Object("Example.ModId_Watermelon", 1); // custom item
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight>
You can also use the new <samp>ItemRegistry</samp> API to construct items from their <samp>QualifiedItemId</samp>:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
<syntaxhighlight lang="c#">
Item item = ItemRegistry.Create("(B)505"); // Rubber Boots
</syntaxhighlight>
</syntaxhighlight></li>
</ul>
===Other ID changes===
Many other things in the game now have unique string IDs too (including [[#Buff overhaul|buffs]], [[#String event IDs|events]], and fruit trees). To migrate existing code:
* When referencing numeric IDs, you usually just need to convert them into a string (like <code>Game1.player.hasBuff("1590166")</code> or <code>Game1.player.eventsSeen.Contains("1590166")</code>).
* When creating buffs, see [[#Buff overhaul|buff overhaul]] for how to create buffs now.
* For pre-existing content pack data, see migration steps in the ''[[#Unique string IDs|unique string IDs]]'' section.
===Building and animal changes===
: ''See also: [[#Build anywhere|build anywhere in what's new]].''
* Since all locations now allow buildings and animals, mod code which handles <samp>BuildableGameLocation</samp> and <samp>IAnimalLocation</samp> won't detect all buildable locations. You can replace them with <samp>location.IsBuildableLocation()</samp> (or just access <samp>location.buildings</samp> directly) and <samp>location.animals.Any()</samp> instead. Mods should no longer have any reference at all to <samp>BuildableGameLocation</samp> and <samp>IAnimalLocation</samp>.
* Since buildings can be built anywhere, you can no longer assume a building is on the farm. You can check the new <samp>building.buildingLocation</samp> field instead.
* You should review direct references to the farm (like <code>Game1.getFarm()</code> or <code>Game1.getLocationFromName("Farm")</code>) to see if it needs to be rewritten to allow other locations.
* <code>Utility.numSilos()</code> should no longer be used to calculate available hay, since it doesn't account for custom buildings with hay storage. Use <code>Game1.getFarm().GetHayCapacity()</code> instead.
* The <samp>Cat</samp> and <samp>Dog</samp> classes are now unused; all pets are now <samp>Pet</samp> directly.
===Player changes===
: ''See also: [[#Buff overhaul|buff overhaul in what's new]].''
<ul>
<li>Several <samp>Game1.player</samp> / <samp>Farmer</samp> fields changed as part of the [[#Buff overhaul|buff overhaul]]:

| These are now readonly and can't be set directly. You can change them by [[#Buff overhaul|adding a buff]] (which can be invisible), equipment bonus, etc instead.
|-
|}</li>
| <samp>Utility.WrapIndex</samp>
<li>Buffs are now recalculated automatically, and you can reset a buff by just reapplying it. See [[#Buff overhaul|buff overhaul]] for more info.</li>
<li>Buff logic has been centralized into <samp>Game1.player.buffs</samp>. This replaces a number of former fields/methods like <samp>Game1.buffsDisplay</samp>.</li>
</ul>
===Collision changes===
The game's tile collision logic has been overhauled and merged into a simpler set of methods on <samp>GameLocation</samp> instances:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! method
! effect
</syntaxhighlight>
|-
| <samp>CanSpawnCharacterHere</samp>
| Get whether NPCs can be placed on the given tile (e.g. it's within the map bounds and tile is walkable), there's no placed object there, and the <samp>NoFurniture</samp> [[Modding:Maps|tile property]] isn't set.
|-
| <samp>CanItemBePlacedHere</samp>
| Get whether items can be placed on the given tile in non-floating form (e.g. it's within the map bounds and not blocked by a non-walkable item), and the <samp>NoFurniture</samp> [[Modding:Maps|tile property]] isn't set.
|-
| <samp>isBuildable</samp>
| Get whether buildings can be placed on the given tile.
|-
| <samp>IsTilePassable</samp>
| Get whether the tile can be walked on (ignoring collisions with in-game objects, NPCs, etc).
|-
| <samp>IsTileOccupiedBy</samp>
| Get whether the tile contains a player, object, NPC/monster/pet/etc, terrain feature, building, etc. You can choose which entities to check, and which ones to ignore if they don't block movement.
|-
| <samp>IsTileBlockedBy</samp>
| Equivalent to calling both <samp>IsTilePassable</samp> and <samp>IsTileOccupiedBy</samp>.
|-
| <samp>IsLocationSpecificOccupantOnTile</samp><br /><samp>IsLocationSpecificPlacementRestriction</samp>
| Generally shouldn't be used directly. Checks for location-specific collisions (e.g. ladders in [[The Mines|the mines]] or parrot platforms on [[Ginger Island]]).
|}
|}
===Static delegate builder===
===Other breaking API changes===

| Removed. The collision logic has been significantly rewritten and uses a new set of methods (mainly <samp>isTilePassable</samp>, <samp>IsTileOccupiedBy</samp>, and <samp>CanItemBePlacedHere</samp>). Mods should ideally be updated to use the new methods.
Here's a drop-in set of extension methods which re-add the older methods. This lets you temporarily fix code until you can update it properly, but depending on these isn't recommended since they won't be maintained in future versions.

public static bool isTileLocationTotallyClearAndPlaceable(this GameLocation location, Vector2 v)
* For C# mods, the <samp>Game1.realMilliSecondsPerGame</samp> and <samp>Game1.realMilliSecondsPerGameTenMinutes</samp> fields are no longer marked <samp>const</samp>, and the <samp>GameLocation.getExtraMillisecondsPerInGameMinuteForThisLocation()</samp> method has been replaced with a settable <samp>ExtraMillisecondsPerInGameMinute</samp> property.

| <samp>isPotentialBasicShippedCategory</samp>
| These are now readonly and can't be set directly. You can change them by [[#Buff overhaul|adding a buff]] (which can be invisible), equipment bonus, etc instead.
| The second argument should now be an integer (like <samp>-75</samp> or <samp>Object.VegetableCategory</samp>) instead of a string (like <samp>"-75"</samp>).
|-
|-
|rowspan="9"| <samp>Utility</samp>
| <samp>doesItemWithThisIndexExistAnywhere</samp>
| Replace with <samp>Utility.doesItemExistAnywhere</samp>, which takes a string item ID. For example:

|-

| Get whether items can be placed on the given tile in non-floating form (e.g. it's within the map bounds and not blocked by a non-walkable item), and the <samp>NoFurniture</samp> [[Modding:Maps|tile property]] isn't set.
| This now returns a flag enum instead of a list of integer values. The equivalent values are 1 → <samp>NoOwnedHorse</samp>, 2 → <samp>Indoors</samp>, 3 → <samp>NoRoom</samp>, and 4 → <samp>InUse</samp>.
For example:

|-
|-
| <samp>IsTilePassable</samp>
| <samp>getTodaysBirthdayNPC</samp>
| Get whether the tile can be walked on (ignoring collisions with in-game objects, NPCs, etc).
| Remove the arguments, like <code>Utility.getTodaysBirthdayNPC(Game1.currentSeason, Game1.dayOfMonth)</code> → <code>Utility.getTodaysBirthdayNPC()</code>.

| <samp>IsTileOccupiedBy</samp>
| <samp>getPooledList</samp><br /><samp>returnPooledList</samp>
| Get whether the tile contains a player, object, NPC/monster/pet/etc, terrain feature, building, etc. You can choose which entities to check, and which ones to ignore if they don't block movement.
| The game no longer uses a list pool. In most cases you should use the [[#Iteration|<samp>Utility.ForEach*</samp> methods]] instead, which don't need it.
|-
|-
| <samp>IsTileBlockedBy</samp>
| <samp>numObelisksOnFarm</samp>
| Equivalent to calling both <samp>IsTilePassable</samp> and <samp>IsTileOccupiedBy</samp>.

|-
|-
| <samp>IsLocationSpecificOccupantOnTile</samp><br /><samp>IsLocationSpecificPlacementRestriction</samp>
| <samp>numSilos</samp>
| Generally shouldn't be used directly. Checks for location-specific collisions (e.g. ladders in [[The Mines|the mines]] or parrot platforms on [[Ginger Island]]).
| Removed.
If you're using this to calculate hay capacity, it's a bit more complicated in 1.6 since hay storage can be enabled for custom buildings and building construction can be enabled for any location. To get capacity for the current location, use <samp>Game1.currentLocation.GetHayCapacity()</samp> instead. To get total hay capacity in the world, use <samp>Utility.ForEachLocation</samp> to call it on every location.
''(This section is meant as a quick reference if you have build errors; there's no need to read through it otherwise.)''

===Check for obsolete code===
Perform a full rebuild of your mod (in Visual Studio, click ''Build > Rebuild Solution''), then check the Error List pane for any warnings like "'''X' is obsolete''". Anything from the vanilla game code which is marked obsolete won't work anymore and is only kept for save migrations. Usually the warning will include an explanation of what you should use instead.
==Breaking changes for content packs==
'''This section only describes how this update may break existing mods. See the ''what's new'' sections above for more info, including new functionality mods can use.'''
===Standardized ID fields===
Stardew Valley 1.6 adds an <samp>Id</samp> field to these assets. For Content Patcher content packs, these replace the previous synthetic ID:
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! type
! asset
! members
! old key
! new key
! migration steps
|-
|-
| <samp>Axe</samp>
| <samp>Data/ConcessionTastes</samp><br /><samp>Data/MovieReactions</samp><br /><samp>Data/RandomBundles</samp> (area)<br /><samp>Data/RandomBundles</samp> (bundle)
|  
| <samp>Name</samp><br /><samp>NPCName</samp><br /><samp>AreaName</samp><br />''none''
|<samp>Id</samp>
| None. The <samp>Id</samp> field is set automatically to the same value (or <samp>Name</samp> for bundles), so there's no change for content packs. Omit the new field when creating a new entry.
|-
|-
| <samp>Bush</samp>
| <samp>Data/FishPondData</samp><br /><samp>Data/RandomBundles</samp> (bundle set)
|  
| <samp>RequiredTags</samp><br />''none''
| <samp>Id</samp>
| Use the new <samp>Id</samp> field to target an entry, and add it when creating a new entry. Required.
|-
|-
| <samp>Chest</samp>
| <samp>Data/TailoringRecipes</samp>
|  
| <samp>FirstItemTags</samp> and <samp>SecondItemTags</samp>
| <samp>Id</samp>
| Use the new <samp>Id</samp> field to target an entry, and add it when creating a new entry. Defaults to the <samp>CraftedItemIds</samp> (comma-delimited) or <samp>CraftedItemId</samp> value if omitted, but there's a high chance of conflicts so mods should always specify a unique ID.
|}
| <samp>CosmeticPlant</samp>
|  
For example, let's say you have a patch like this using Content Patcher:
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|<nowiki>
{
"Format": "</nowiki>{{Content Patcher version}}<nowiki>",
"Changes": [
{
|-
"Action": "EditData",
| <samp>Critter</samp>
"Target": "Data/TailorRecipes",
|  
"Entries": {
"item_cloth|item_pufferchick": {
"FirstItemTags": [ "item_cloth" ],
"SecondItemTags": [ "item_pufferchick" ],
"CraftedItemId": "(S)1260"
* <samp>daysOfUnclutteredGrowth</samp>
}
|-
}
| <samp>Dialogue</samp>
}
|  
]
}</nowiki>|lang=javascript}}
When updating to Stardew Valley 1.6, replace the synthetic ID (<samp>item_cloth|item_pufferchick</samp>) with a real one:
* To edit an existing entry, unpack the asset and get its new <samp>Id</samp> value.
* To add a custom entry, use a [[Modding:Common data field types#Unique string ID|unique string ID]].
For example:
{{#tag:syntaxhighlight|<nowiki>
{
"Format": "</nowiki>{{Content Patcher version}}<nowiki>",
"Changes": [
{
"Action": "EditData",
"Target": "Data/TailorRecipes",
"Entries": {
"ExampleAuthor.ModId_RainCoatFromPufferchick": {
"Id": "ExampleAuthor.ModId_RainCoatFromPufferchick", // need to specify ID again when creating it
"FirstItemTags": [ "item_cloth" ],
"SecondItemTags": [ "item_pufferchick" ],
"CraftedItemId": "(S)1260"
}
}
}
]
}</nowiki>|lang=javascript}}
===Event ID changes===
{{/doc status|[[Modding:Event data]]|done=false}}
: ''See also: [[#String event IDs|string event IDs in what's new]].''
Events now have unique string IDs.
When creating an event:
<ul>
<li>New events should use a globally unique ID in the form <samp>Your.ModId_EventName</samp>. Existing events should be fine as-is, but it may be worth migrating them to avoid future conflicts.</li>
<li>Every non-fork event '''must''' have a precondition in its key (even if it's empty). For example, change <code>"Your.ModId_EventName": "..."</code> to <code>"Your.ModId_EventName/": "..."</code>. This is needed for the game to distinguish between events and fork scripts.
<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
"Example.ModId_EventName/": "...", // event: loaded automatically by the game
"SomeFork": "..." // event fork: ignored unless it's loaded through an event script
</syntaxhighlight></li>
</ul>
===Monster eradication goal flag changes===
{{/doc status|a new doc page|done=false}}
: ''See also: [[#Custom monster eradication goals|Custom monster eradication goals]].''
The game now tracks [[Adventurer's Guild]] monster eradication goal completion by the goal ID, instead of the produced item. You'll need to replace these mail flags if you check them:

===XNB impact===
====Overview====
* <samp>attackSwordCooldownTime</samp>
This section provides a summary of the XNB files which changed in Stardew Valley 1.6. This doesn't include new files (since they won't impact existing mods), or text changes in non-English files.
* <samp>doStabbingSwordFunction(…)</samp>
[[Modding:Using XNB mods|XNB mods]] are disproportionately affected, since...
# they replace the entire file;
# they're loaded through the MonoGame content pipeline which is less tolerant of format changes;
# they don't benefit from the compatibility rewrites [[Modding:Content Patcher|Content Patcher]] provides for its content packs.
Content Patcher packs are typically unaffected (and Content Patcher will try to rewrite content packs automatically). However if a content pack replaces an entire asset instead of editing, it's more likely to be affected like an XNB mod.
====Changed assets====
Compatibility is broadly grouped into four categories:
* "'''✘ broken'''": mods will remove new content or significant changes, or the mod's intended changes will no longer work. Effects may range from display bugs to crashes, depending how the game uses that specific content.
* "✘ will remove changes": mods will remove minor changes in 1.6 (e.g. typo fixes).
* "✓ mostly unaffected": mods will only be affected if they replace the entire asset, or edit specific entries or fields.
* Blank: no expected impact for the vast majority of mods.
