Gameplay Customizations

  • Stock indicators β€” Shows little circles next to the recipes or products for Gear, Kitchen etc. so you can easily see if you have it in stock in the Barn or not. They are useful to quickly view and manage your stock (inventory) when playing for Orders. Info: red circle – No stock, yellow circle – Stock is under 5 items.
  • Starred Shrubs placement guide β€” This option shows a guide half a “plot” wide around any shrub bed, so it’s easier for you to place them at the correct distance to get Silver and Gold starred fruits. The guide is somewhat smart, so when you move an empty Shrub Bed it shows a guide all around, and when you have something planted on it, it shows the appropriate spacing for that particular plant. The spacing area changes color: green means it’s OK, yellow means you can plant, but you won’t get Silver and Gold starred fruits.
  • Show last planted Tree sign β€” After you clear a Tree after the last harvest, this setting shows a wooden sign with the last planted Tree. Unchecking this setting will delete them from game’s memory. When in Tree planting mode, everything else is transparent, so you can see the Tree holes.
  • Show last planted Shrub sign β€” After you clear a Shrub after the last harvest, this setting shows a wooden sign with the last planted Shrub. Unchecking this setting will delete them from game’s memory.
  • Let Neighbors cut Grass & Bushes β€” Allows Neighbors to help you cut “Orchard” Grass and Wild Bushes growing in Bellflower Meadow. You get 80% of the loot, they get 20%. You will find the grass and bush wood as loot, lying around waiting to be collected. If your uncollected loot reaches 50, your Neighbors can’t help you, so make sure you collect all loot! Changes appear at refresh, they are not live.
  • Giant info popup for Wood Trees β€” Hides the big popup for the wood trees (Maple, Oak, Beech, Elm). After you learn the loot for all stages, from seed to towering tree, it’s best to get it out of the way.

Eggs Priority

The Eggs Management “Minigame” allows you to save specific Egg types that are used in recipes, like the Easter Egger Eggs. More info HERE.

  • Earn Grains for FSP β€” Shows notifications when you earn Skill Grains for Farmer Skill Points, so you can add them to the Grain Gauge in time.

Accessibility

  • Click Locking β€” Click and hold while planting or harvesting until the progress bar fully loads. Once loaded, release the click button, and you can simply move the mouse to plant or harvest effortlessly. This option ‘locks’ the click, allowing actions to continue as if the button remains pressed.
  • Reduced motion β€” Reduces motion of interface elements such as popups and HUD transitions, where possible, for a more static visual experience.
  • Bigger fonts β€” Increases the font size for certain interface elements, such as tooltips, where possible.
  • High contrast elements β€” Makes the Shop cards text label darker, so it’s easier to see, and also makes other text elements darker or with a higher contrast compared to the background, where available.
