Stardew Valley
AStardew Valleyplayer had days of difficult work ruin after random fortune destroyed their long - term crop order . Beginning in the twilight ofYear 2,Stardew Valleyplayersunlock the Special Orders instrument panel , which is effectively the next evolution of the Bulletin Board . Where the Bulletin Board offers simple , one - off quests ( e.g. , release in one detail within three days ) , Special Orders are extended and concentrated , taking anywhere from a calendar week to a month to fill out , and often require role player to embark up to 100 of a finical crop .
But in this particular case , the player imbed on the button enoughArtichoketo meet the needs of a Special Order - 100 plants on the dot . But shortly before the deadline , a crowing swooped in and ate a exclusive artichoke works , taking them down to 99 . With just four days leave to complete the Special Order , it was too recent to find ( Artichokes take eight to grow , five with all growth speed bonuses applied ) , they unavoidably run out the order .

“I’ve Been Burned Too Many Times”
Unfortunately , have crow steal your crops and deflower your Special Orders is all too common aStardew Valleyexperience . One participant , Edrill , excuse that something alike has pass off to them before , and suggests on a regular basis planting 10 % more crop than the Special Order ask to compensate for any endangerment of departure . And there are many ways that loss can happen : besides crows , crops could be destroyed by isolated bolts of lightning or , more seldom , meteors , or their growth slowed by insufficient watering .
Others , likefoxy436 , had more creative estimate . It ’s long been known that players can useChickensto cheat in the PC version ofStardew Valley . Naming a poulet with the in - biz item ID of a exceptional item can cause the biz to handle it as though it were that point - for deterrent example , naming an animal [ 74 ] , the ID for aPrismatic Shard , is a common effort used tofarm the rarefied mineral . Unfortunately , though , creative solutions like this one would n’t even work , asthe quest specifically require the player to harvest all 100 Artichokes they ship .
So , besides better scarecrow placement or planting on Ginger Island ( which does n’t have crows),there ’s really no mode to avoid this sort of tough luck . All you’re able to really do is gear up for the eventuality , cross your fingerbreadth , and desire it does n’t happen .
Our Take: That’s Just The Way It Crows
Stardew Valley Mishaps Are Inevitable
I ’ve said it before , and I ’ll say it again : Stardew Valleymay have inspired the current cozy gaming drift , but it ’s not a cozy secret plan . Sure , you’re able to keep your farm work modest and simple , but you ’ll finally have to rage it up to keep pace with Special Orders . you’re able to walk around townspeople and make booster , but their storylines will finally delve into darker topics like imprint , divorcement , and addiction . And you may adjudicate your surd to avert catastrophe , but forged luck will eventually amount along to smash your day .
Stardew Valley fans attempt to explain their trend to take the foresighted way through township , and it seems that the key is all in the trash scattered about .
These experiences are n’t meant to damp you down , though : they’re meant to teach you about the secret plan . Stardewdoesn’t have many tutorial , so players have to larn by doing - which often mean failure . Surely the original poster acknowledge better now , and will always overplant , or assure their scarecrows are more tactfully arranged to keep crows off their farm . These failures are n’t pleasant , but they ’re a major part of whatStardew Valleyis about : ascertain to pick yourself up and try again .
