Modding:Crop data

← Index

This page explains how the game stores and parses crops data. This is an advanced guide for mod developers.

Raw data

Crop data is stored in Content\Data\Crops.xnb, which can be unpacked for editing. Here's the raw data as of 1.4 for reference:

Days in each stage of growth

The number of days in each visual step of growth. The final stage will be harvestable after the specified number of days.

Regrow after harvest

Either -1 for no regrowth, or the number of days until the crop can be harvested again.

Harvest method

1 for Scythe, 0 for all others

Chance for extra harvest

If this value is true, then the numbers that follow are parsed as:

1. minHarvest
2. maxHarvest
3. maxHarvestIncreasePerFarmingLevel
4. chanceForExtraCrops

The game determines the number of crops gained at a single harvest using the following code from Crops.cs::harvest(), where num is the number of crops gained:

if (this.minHarvest > 1 || this.maxHarvest > 1)
    num = random.Next(this.minHarvest, Math.Min(this.minHarvest + 1, this.maxHarvest + 1 + Game1.player.FarmingLevel / this.maxHarvestIncreasePerFarmingLevel));

if (this.chanceForExtraCrops > 0.0)
    while (random.NextDouble() < Math.Min(0.9, this.chanceForExtraCrops))
        num++;

if (random.NextDouble() < (double)Game1.dailyLuck / 1200.0 + 9.9999997473787516E-05)
    num *= 2;

The result (i.e., num) of random.Next(this.minHarvest, Math.Min(this.minHarvest + 1, this.maxHarvest + 1 + Game1.player.FarmingLevel / this.maxHarvestIncreasePerFarmingLevel)) is always the minHarvest, for 2 reasons.

1. Taking the Math.Min of (minHarvest + 1) and (this.maxHarvest + 1 + Game1.player.FarmingLevel / this.maxHarvestIncreasePerFarmingLevel) always results in (minHarvest + 1)
2. random.Next uses an inclusive lower bound and an exclusive upper bound, so it is effectively calculating a random number between minHarvest and minHarvest

Therefore, as of v1.2, only 3 seeds always give more than one crop per harvest, and that number is equal to the minHarvest:

• Coffee Bean (433) -- 4 Beans
• Blueberry Seeds (481) -- 3 Blueberries
• Cranberry Seeds (493) -- 2 Cranberries

The value in chanceForExtraCrops may add additional crops to a harvest, calculated independently of the other 3 variables. For example, each harvest of a Potato Seed (475) has ≈20% chance of yielding an extra potato, in addition to the one Potato given as standard harvest. Each harvest of a Blueberry Seed (481) has ≈2% chance of yielding an extra Blueberry, in addition to the 3 Blueberries given as standard harvest.

Raised seeds

True for trellis crops (Grapes, Hops, Green Beans), false for all others.

Tint color

If Tint Color is true, a string of rgb() values follows. In the example above, Summer Spangle can be one of 6 different colors:

• rgb(0, 208, 255)
• rgb(99, 255, 210)
• rgb(255, 212, 0)
• rgb(255, 144, 122)
• rgb(255, 0, 238)
• rgb(206, 91, 255)
