*** NOTE: YOU MUST START A NEW SAVE FILE IF YOU UPDATE ***
Hello everyone. I just released version 0.3.0 which includes some big improvements to the Foraging skill. Here's a summary of the main changes.
- Added the Bird Bath craftable item learned from Foraging level 2. It can be placed on the farm to attract different birds which can drop valuable feathers when you scare them off. The bird bath must be filled with water to attract birds. Every day there is a chance to attract 1 bird per bird bath. Water will last a few days in spring and fall but only a day or two during the hot summer. Does not function during winter. When there is a bird at the bird bath it will cause water to splash which can water nearby crops. You can refill the bird bath water with your watering can or it will fill during a rain.
- Added Foraging skill buffs. Every Foraging level will grant a new Foraging ability buff. For example when foraging you can get a speed buff that stacks so if you forage a few items in a row without losing the buff, you can get moving pretty quick. Another buff that is available will grant energy every so often that also stacks and lasts a longer period of time.
- Added some mushrooms to forage. Morel mushrooms will be abundant after a rainy day.
- Concrete Mixers can now be placed on the farm. The recipe is learned on Mining level 2.
- Adjusted some recipe numbers and item values.
- Added squirrels which can drop various nuts when scared away - can also grant Foraging skill up
- Added seagulls that can also be scared away causing some random items to drop
- Lots of other bug fixes
Thank you for playing!
