sorry if I did this wrong; I couldn't figure out how to post something individually. I also didn't find any rules on how to submit a comment. Under "quality" it says every tree in a 7x7 area is counted, and mossy trees count twice. It says the product is divided by 40, then if the quotient is 40 iridium quality is guaranteed. According to this, you would have to plant EIGHT HUNDRED trees (with moss) for this. Was this a typo, or is this the way of saying it's not possible to guarantee iridium quality?

"The count" in this page refers to the number of trees and mosses, before divided by 40. So if you plant 40 trees (or ~~with~~ moss), the chance = 40/40 =100% to make sure iridium.[[User:Ethan|Ethan]] ([[User talk:Ethan|talk]]) 08:03, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

:Thanks, but images with English only are no good, as the wiki exists in 12 languages. Once you feel you are certain that the layout is optimized, you can upload an image like the black & white ones you see on the [[Greenhouse]] page, under "Sprinklers". Please make sure it has a descriptive file name at that time. Thanks! [[User:Margotbean|margotbean]] ([[User talk:Margotbean|talk]]) 19:11, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

I'm trying to calculate expected profits for mushroom logs, so I looked at the game code, and in particular the random number used to generate the quantity of mushrooms. The wiki says it's "a random number between 0.5 and 1.5". The game code uses "Game1.random.Next(1, 3) * (nearbyTrees.Count / 2)". Looking up the definition, the documentation of Next(int minValue, int maxValue) gives us: "A 32-bit signed integer greater than or equal to minValue and less than maxValue; that is, the range of return values includes minValue but not maxValue." So it's exclusive and generates one of two integers: either 1 or 2. Meaning the random number would be 0.5 or 1, with a 50% chance of either one happening. Could someone double check me? This is the first time I'm reading C# and I also don't understand why "Game1.random.Next(1, 3) * (nearbyTrees.Count / 2)" would always be an integer.

I think I calculated the expected number of mushrooms spawned per number of trees in the 7x7 square. random.Next maxvalue is exclusive, so random nr is either 1 or 2. n_trees/2 is rounded towards 0 (integer division). So n_trees/2 is [0,0,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5] for 0 throuh 10 n_trees. With random.Next(1,3) equal to 1 and 2 respectively, we have [1,1,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5] and [1,1,2,2,4,4,5,5,5,5,5] mushrooms produced. Hence the expected value of the number of mushrooms for 0 to 10 trees is [1,1,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5] + [1,1,2,2,4,4,5,5,5,5,5] / 2 = [1,1,1.5,1.5,3,3,4,4,4.5,4.5,5]. So interestingly, due to the rounding down towards 0 in the integer division, 3, 5, 7, and 9 trees do not add any benefit to the number of mushrooms when compared to 2, 4, 6, and 8 trees in the 7x7 square.
