Stardew Valley broken? Try removing your pets’ hats

“PSA: in case you are experiencing efficiency points in Stardew Valley 1.6, take away all hats from pets,” Barone wrote on X. “We’ll tackle the issue as quickly as doable.”

Stardew Valley’s 1.6 replace — initially launched for Home windows PC in March, then for consoles and cellular on Monday — provides the power for gamers to place hats on their in-game pets. (You’ve doubtless already had that potential in real-life.) It’s considered one of many issues added to the sport with the bigger-than-expected 1.6 replace, and very cute. It’s a bummer that it’s doubtlessly inflicting points for console and cellular gamers, however Barone has a foolish lore clarification that simply is smart: “There’s rumors of a wierd rash affecting pets’ ears in Zuzu Metropolis and we simply need to make sure that these ears can breath for a couple of days,” Barone mentioned in a response to an X person asking for a lore explainer.

See? It simply is smart. So, people, take hats off yours pets and let these ears breathe. Barone hasn’t posted a timeline for the repair, however he’s been addressing bugs constantly since yesterday; there’s already a 1.6.10 bug repair patch that adjusted a couple of issues. One different challenge Barone and the Stardew Valley crew are engaged on is with opening barn doorways on a rooster coop on the primary day it’s positioned; doing that makes the chickens disappear. There’s a lore clarification for that, too: “There’s a wild coyote on the farm,” Barone wrote. Conserving the door closed on the primary day will save the chickens.
