'''Random Farm Events''' happen overnight when the player sleeps.
Random farm events happen overnight when the player sleeps.

==Farm events==
One farm event is randomly selected each night. An event is always selected (except if there's a wedding), but it might have extra requirements that make it do nothing; in that case, it still prevents other events from triggering. The event is chosen in the order listed below.

===Strong wind storm===
A strong wind storm blows the [[Big Tree]] down and replaces it with the [[Giant Stump]]. The quest has a 10% chance to trigger each night after the [[Greenhouse]] construction. The stump may then be interacted with to begin the [[Quests#The Giant Stump|"The Giant Stump"]] quest.
===The Crop Fairy===
===The Crop Fairy===
Except in winter, there's a 1% chance of the fairy event being chosen. If it's not raining, the event chooses 100 random terrain features; at least one of those must be a crop that's not from [[Wild Seeds]] and not fully-grown. If it's raining or no crop was found, the event does nothing.

The crop fairy fully grows all crops in a 5x5 area around the selected crop, so they're ready to harvest. Although the center crop can't be from [[Wild Seeds]], one of the surrounding crops can be; in that case, they'll all produce the same item chosen at random.

===The Witch===
There's a 1% chance of the witch event being chosen. The event randomly chooses one [[coop]] (each with an 80% chance if it's been upgraded at least once, and has fewer than 50 placed objects), or one [[Slime Hutch]] (each with a 50% chance if it contains at least one [[Slimes|slime]] or other NPC, and has no [[Wicked Statue]]). If one of the following buildings were not selected, the event does nothing.

===Meteorite===
===Meteorite===
There's a 1% chance of the meteor event being chosen. The event chooses a random 3x3 area on the farm and checks if there's a 2x2 area within that contains no water, placed objects that block movement, buildings, resource clumps, or farm animals. If no such 2x2 area is found, the event does nothing.

There's a 1% chance of the meteorite event being chosen. The event chooses a random 3x3 area on [[the Farm]] and checks if there's a 2x2 area within that contains no water, placed objects that block movement, buildings, resource clumps, or farm animals. If no such 2x2 area is found, the event does nothing.
A unique <samp>Meteorite</samp> sound effect plays and a meteorite appears the next day on the farm in the selected area. Any crops or paths in that area are destroyed. This can be counter-productive, especially if the crops being grown are of more value than the loot from the meteorite. Before the [[Secrets#Shipping_Screen|shipping screen]] is displayed, a message is shown saying "An explosion was heard in the night..."
Meteorites don't despawn naturally and require a [[Pickaxes|Gold Pickaxe]] or better to mine. (A Gold Pickaxe requires 7 hits, and an Iridium Pickaxe requires 6 hits.) They drop 6 [[Iridium Ore]], 6 [[Stone]], and 2 [[Geode]]s, and have a 25% chance to drop a [[Prismatic Shard]].

'''Trivia:''' From [[Version History#1.0|v1.0]] to [[Version History#1.04|v1.04]] of the game (''i.e.,'' from February 26, 2016 to March 1, 2016), the meteorite was gray with no spiky projections.
===Strange Capsule===
===Strange Capsule===
After year one, there's a 0.8% chance of the strange capsule event being chosen. The event only does something if a randomly chosen tile on your farm is clear and allows item placement.
After Year 1, there's a 0.8% chance of the strange capsule event being chosen. The event does something only if a randomly chosen tile on the farm is clear and allows item placement. It will emit a small amount of light when placed. Before the [[Secrets#Shipping_Screen|shipping screen]] is displayed, a message is shown saying "A strange sound was heard in the night..."
A unique <tt>UFO</tt> sound effect plays, and a Strange Capsule appears on a random tile of the farm.<ref name="strangecapsule" /> It turns into a broken Empty Capsule after about three days, which enables a [[Secrets#Strange Capsule|further Easter egg]]. Once this event has happened once in a save file, it is very unlikely to happen again.
A unique <samp>UFO</samp> sound effect plays, and a Strange Capsule appears on a random tile of the farm.<ref name="strangecapsule" /> The strange capsule can be picked up and placed around the farm. It turns into a broken Empty Capsule after about three days (unless it is stored in a chest or inside of the player's inventory), which enables a [[Secrets#Strange Capsule|further Easter egg]]. It can also turn into a broken Empty Capsule if applied with [[Fairy Dust]]. Once this event has happened in a save file, it cannot happen again.
The Strange Capsule cannot spawn on the [[Ginger Island]] farm, but the event may still happen while sleeping in the [[Island Farmhouse]]. In this case, the Strange Capsule will appear as usual in a random location on the mainland farm.

===Stone Owl===

There's a 0.5% chance of the stone owl event being chosen. The event checks the same conditions as the [[#Strange Capsule|strange capsule event]].

There's a 0.5% chance of the stone owl event being chosen. The event checks the same conditions as the [[#Strange Capsule|strange capsule event]], though unlike the Strange Capsule, more than one Stone Owl can spawn in a save file and the Stone Owl can appear during Year 1.
An <tt>owl</tt> sound effect plays, and a unique [[Furniture#Special|Stone Owl]] appears on a random tile of the farm. This owl is unrelated to the [[Stone Owl]] sold at the [[Night Market]].

===Farm animal birth===

:''See also: [[Animals#Animal Births|Animals]]''
:''See also: [[Animals#Animal Births|Animals]]''
There's a 50% chance the farm animal birth is selected. The event randomly chooses one upgraded [[Barn]] that isn't full (each with a chance equal to ''0.55% * number of animals inside'', e.g. 1.65% for three animals), then one random animal in that building. If no building is selected or the animal can't give birth (e.g. it's a baby or you disabled pregnancy for that animal), the event does nothing.

:''See also: [[Animals#Wild Animal Attacks|Animals]]''
This event is guaranteed to be chosen if no other event was, but has a 50% chance of doing nothing. The event randomly chooses one [[barn]] or [[coop]] whose door is open with some animals outdoors (each with a chance equal to ''1 / number of buildings'', e.g. 100% if you have one building and 50% for two).
This event is guaranteed to be chosen if no other event was, but has a 50% chance of doing nothing. The event randomly chooses one [[barn]] or [[coop]] whose door is closed with some animals outdoors (each with a chance equal to ''1 / number of buildings'', ''e.g.,'' 100% for one building and 50% for two).
A unique sound of dogs plays, and one animal left outside of the selected building disappears permanently. All other animals show a message indicating "Something bad happened last night.", but are otherwise unaffected.
