All Quality Of Life Changes Added To Stardew Valley 1.6!

hello everyone welcome back to another video today I’m going to be talking about the quality of life changes that got added to the 1.6 update for stardew Valley now these are normally one of my favorite things that come to the updates is little quality of life changes it’s the little things in life and these can really enhance your gameplay and make things much more enjoyable and less frustrating so today we are going to go through every single quality of life change from the first initial 1.6 release to all of the patches and min updates along the way so without further Ado let’s get straight into the first one and this is a big one NPCs now shove chests out of their way instead of destroying them this is perfect if you are like me and you like to place chests outside of the farm before it was quite a dangerous game because if an NPC crashed the way through it the chest would destroy with all of the items in them but now they just kind of pushed them out of the way like I said it’s the little things if Pam doesn’t turn up to the bus for any reason she will now leave a little sign informing you that you can drive yourself to the desert this is huge so basically you can always go to the desert using the bus now even if Pam’s not there we may be a child in the game but we know how to drive a bus there’s been multiple audio changes with this 1.6 update 2 and they’ve made more sounds positional with players tools and machines so positional sounds now Fade with distance went off the screen instead of cutting off abruptly this is the same with the brand new waterfalls as you get closer to the waterfall the noise is louder and as you walk away it will fade until no longer hearing it they’ve also softened the bomb fuse sound these were so loud and annoying in the minds if you used a lot of bombs especially in the school cabern was so loud but now this has been reduced it’s a little bit softer and nicer to listen to and also the music now Ducks out and then resumes when certain sounds are played instead of just stopping like it used to I’m a big fan and such a nerd when it comes to audio and sound effects in games okay another one here you can now strafe while charging a watering can or a hoe allowing you to reposition your tool without changing the direction this is awesome once you fully charge your watering can you was locked into that position you had to just waste the energy waste the water but now it gives you a chance to kind of move and readjust so you don’t waste the energy or the water simple thing again but very very handy you can now refill slingshot ammo by right clicking it with the same ammo previously it would have just swapped the item stack planting Cactus seeds on the farm now fails with a message instead of the seeds dying overnight holding a tea sapling or any seed over a garden pot now shows the green/ red placement tile you can no longer pick up rugs if there’s something on it now this is super handy I pumped into this problem a lot especially when decorating The Farmhouse and I was trying to click on let’s say a chair or a table it would always get the rug so this is awesome if a rug’s down and there’s something on it you will never be able to pick up the rug unless there’s nothing on it simple I love it checking a pet balll will now show a text bubble with the pet’s name I’ve noticed this one is so adorable the fact that we can have multiple pets as well it kind of identifies whose Bowl it is and it shows you their little name so cute they’ve now added a new post fishing sparkling text to indicate when you’ve caught something for the first time you’d get like a little sound a little achievement it’s really nice knowing that oh I’ve just caught a fish for the first time a new one it gave me a little sense of Pride I love it torches can now be placed on sprinklers this is super handy for designing a layout with sprinklers but also lighting it up at night time because before you kind of just have to put them around on the edge or maybe on fence posts it lights up the area at night time it looks awesome and it kind of it’s really handy with space as well I love a little touchier but so nice we can now use the chairs during festivals you can sit down relax and take a seat during festivals you can now move the field chest by hitting them twice with a heavy tool before you could only do this with your hands and then the chest will shift one space at a time again very handy for moving chests that are filled with loads of items much more simpler and faster you can now Place flooring underneath most buildings this is amazing before let’s say you had a path like four tiles wide if you place let’s say a coupon there it would destroy some of those tiles but now it will sit perfectly on top of the floor so it Blends in it kind of looks nice it doesn’t look odd I love this perfect for decorating the farm it makes it look so much more aesthetically pleasing crystarium now have to be removed and replaced before putting a different gem inside this will obviously help avoid wasting gems accidentally before you could just put a Jade and it will replace that diamond even though it was producing the diamond already this will kind of stop the production of what current gem is in there so you can start fresh with a new one daily billboard quests will now have more informative tracker notifications when you make progress on them I notice this this was quite a nice touch it kind of stops you from forgetting about them as well and it lets you know when you’ve completed them and we got another one here very similar they’ve added a small check mark icon on the special orders which you’ve completed before so it will have a little green tick if you’ve done it before which is very handy because there’s times where I was doing the special orders and I was like have I done this one before I don’t remember you can now skip the pet adoption scene in the very beginning of the game when you get your first pet and when you skip this this will cause you to adopt the pet instantly if you do not want to pet don’t skip the little cut scene because you will get given the pet as default but this is kind of good for people who have played the game a lot and will always have the pet just skip it and you get it instantly and speaking of pets they have reduced the amount of time that you need to push against them before they start shaking and then they’ll let you pass through them it used to be 1.5 seconds they’ve halfed it to 75 so kind of like if a dog is in your way or a cat you’ll be able to get through them very fast and they’re not blocking you and slowing you down they’ve also reduced the time for the mini the Obelisk warp totem they’ve made it 750 milliseconds faster there’s a little bit of a delay it took a while to get to where it needed so now it’s going to be kind of instant probably similar to the return scepter male farmers are no longer forced into wedding cloes on their wedding day so you can now choose your own outfit if you want to wear a wacky outfit you can wear that the day before the wedding and that’s what you’ll be wearing on the day emptying a fish pond with fish that are still in it will cause the fish to flop out of the pond poor little of issue ises now there’s been a few changes to the Slime Hutch you can now change the flooring which is very awesome you can also remove the starter incubator in the Slime watch and slime balls no longer appear on crafted flooring so if you do want to farm the slimes and get their slime balls do not use crafted flooring now there’s been a ton of improvements to the UI we have got a hell of a lot so let’s get straight into all of this they’ve now added an hourglass cursor which shows when you are waiting for something to load on the screen notification messages in the bottom left corner will now last 50% longer before they disappear the sound in the night events such as the owl now show an icon on the screen to indicate that a sound is playing dialogue question selectors no longer remain selected when you hover away from them to reduce accidental selections Robin’s building menu will now show how many days a building will take M’s animal shop now centers the camera on an appropriate building when purchasing an animal this one is huge also Mar’s animal shop now shows prices in the tool tip in case the tool tip covers the price display the achievement menu will Now list all potential achievements the hidden achievements you haven’t unlocked yet are shown as question marks the museum reward menu now prevents picking up a reward that won’t fit in your inventory also the museum reward menu will now let you exit while holding a reward it will be added back to your inventure if possible otherwise it will be dropped at your feet the save creation Farm selector now has two columns instead of one and no longer overlaps to the back button on small screens the shipping menu category Pages no longer take up the whole screen as long as the screen is beyond a minimum size inventory tool tips for food that will give you a buff will now show the buff duration in the tool tip the map now closes when you press the map button again this was always quite frustrating but I’m glad it’s changed the Small Things the Small Things shops will now truncate item names which would overflow the menu with and shops now have a slight delay before you can buy or sell items to help avoid double clicks doing accidentally and lastly deleting the save on the PC is now much faster now this was a huge problem I have a lot of farms a lot of saes for different videos and different series and when I’m deleting a farm it kind of would freeze for a couple of seconds maybe sometimes in 5 or 10 seconds and now this is much faster I’ve already noticed this it’s kind of instant which is awesome if a default Farm building like the greenhous is somehow removed it will now be rebuilt the next time you load the save the menu background is now a dropdown option which includes standard graphical or none attempting to put something in a machine but failing will no longer cause you to try and consume or activate the object you’re holding oh my goodness this is just the best this is probably one of my favorites I’d sometimes get random dialogues like oh should I eat this like no I don’t want to eat it I just want to insert into the keg this seems to stop that now this is so handy I love it the Kent intro event and Robin’s flute block event are now skippable okay so now we’re going to go through some quality life changes that came to the 1.6.4 patch so even after the release of the 1.6 update we still got some quality life changes and we still getting them to this day so the first one here there’s been a 1.2 second delay added after dropping an item before it’s picked back up by the same player now this is great on multiplayer if you dropped an item because she was trying to give it to one of your friends but the amount of times it would just go straight back into your character you’ll be doing this for a couple of seconds trying to give this item to your friend but now the same player won’t be able to get that item first it’s going to go to the other person as priority because there’s been a 1 Point 2 second delay which is plenty of time Napal rings are now non-destructive on the farm and inside the Slime Hutch for example the explosion it will only damage the monsters it won’t destroy any of your flooring or your furniture or anything like that your farm will be protected receiving a special notification for example like your first ever geode this will no longer cancel out your player action such as eating or warping flopping fish will no longer fall back into the water or fish ponds and crab pots now have a short time period after harvesting from them during which they can’t be removed this is super handy as well when refilling the crab pots with bait there’ll be quite a lot of times where I’d accidentally picking those crab pots back up into my inventory rather than placing the bait in them and lastly the junimo bundle menu will now only highlight items that can actually be placed in the selected bundle I noticed this on my 1.6 playthrough it’s so much easier and simple because you instantly look straight to the highlighted items you’re like right yeah this is what I need it’s so much more efficient now the last three the final three are PC only if you play on PC you can now shift plus right click an item on the toolbar to throw it out of your inventory if possible now this is super handy because before you could only like drag another PC one here you can now press the y or n key to confirm or cancel the leave Festival confirmation Buton box now this is the same as like when you go to sleep at night you go to bed rather than clicking yes you can just press the Y button it’s kind of like yes or no and it looks like you can do this now to the festivals the last quality of life change for PC again if you hold left shift and left control plus one when you buy from a shop this will now attempt to buy a stack of $ 999 again super handy for me I’m an endgame farmer I do buy a lot of my resources now like wood and Stone in and before you’d have to you know just get a stack of five at a time but now being able to buy a full stack of $999 in one click is super handy but again that is for PC only so that is all of the quality of life changes that really just help enhance your experience in stardy Valley and some of those little frustrating annoying things that have happened in the past it weren’t really gamebreaking but now it’s just it’s just better and sometimes these little things really do help and they go a long way and I appreciate concern for doing these quality Life Changes because they are the things I personally look forward to the most that can really just change so much to the game now if you want to see another video going through some hidden changes that you may have not even noticed but are actually very handy and beneficial hit that like button and
