Stardew Valley Multiplayer Beta: Known Issues & Fixes 2

Prismatic Shard and Diamond drop rates don't increase once reaching the bottom of the mines.
The drop rate increase is determined by the `timesReachedMineBottom` counter in `parseMonsterInfo`:

Code:

    if (Game1.MasterPlayer.timesReachedMineBottom >= 1 && (bool)mineMonster)
    {
        /* Irrelevant code snipped */
        if (Game1.random.NextDouble() < 0.008)
        {
            // 0.8% chance to add Diamond or Prismatic Shard to this monster's loot
            objectsToDrop.Add((Game1.random.NextDouble() < 0.5) ? 72 : 74);
        }
    }

However... the `timesReachedMineBottom` counter doesn't appear to be updated anywhere.
The variable corresponding to `deepestMineLevel` updates correctly though.

Here's showing I've reached level 120:


Here's showing that I've somehow never reached the mine bottom:



I was going crazy trying to farm a Prismatic Shard. This explains my terrible luck.

 

"join steam game" has been available and working for quite a while. For whatever reason, the "join" menu from the game doesn't show random friends who are on and hosting. This has no actual bearing on whether you can join them or not. You just need either a join code from the host or to be their friend on steam.

 

In the beginning levels of the mine, when cave flies spawn the buzzing noise will still be made even after all bugs have been defeated. It only disappears when you leave that level of the mines.

 

In Spa:
For host player, spa stopped regenerating energy when menu is opened.
For client player, spa does not regenerate energy.

Farming skill:
It's not clear what's intended here, but the choices for both players was the 10% bonus to plants, and the results were:
- when only one player had the specialization, both players got the 10% bonus.
- when both players had the specialization, no additional bonus occurred.

 

Around Fall Day 5/6, Marnie sends a mail asking for a cave root. When either the host or joined player try to turn in the cave root to her, the game crashes during the cut scene.

 

While playing multiplayer, my spouse got pregnant shortly after giving birth to the first child, and now we have 2 kids in 1 crib. (My spouse is another player not an NPC)

 

-Casino issue in MP: My farmhand is able to play all the games and collect Qi coins, but is unable to interact with the person at the window selling items. I (the host) can open the menu as normal.
-The issue I reported with outdoor sounds cutting out in MP and then occurring all at once is still happening, though it seems less frequent? These sounds include rocks breaking, trees falling, grass being cut, gates opening, and crops being harvested, if that information is helpful.

 

Bug 1. I turned a recycler into a chest. There was a chest and recycler right next to each other, horizontally. I was standing on the tile just north of the recycler but clicked on the chest tile with axe in hand. The recycler got chopped, and it turned into a chest. The chest that was originally there stayed in place.

Bug 2. I used axe to chop a chest with some items in it. Chest popped out, but items got forever lost.

Bug 3. Multiple crashes in the fair. Can't figure out what triggers it, but eventually we had to let the host play through that event alone.

Bug 4. Due to a crash in fair, I lost my upgraded axe forever. I was in the sling minigame when things crashed. Next time I joined the game, I had 999 slingshots and a sling in my first hotbar slot. That's where my axe was. The game eventually gifted me a new axe but I had to upgrade it again.

Bug 5. I'd repaired the wood bridge on the beach, but it got broken again for the duration of the night market event.

All on 1.3.18 on Linux.

 

I'm playing a two-person farm with my friend. We're in Year One, Fall 13 or 14. We just got the quest from Marnie to bring her a cave carrot for her goats. When I went to give Marnie the cave carrot, the game crashed during the little cutscene in her house, right after my character turns to look to the right. This happened the exact same way two times. I'm attaching my save file and my crash log as one zip folder. Thanks!

 

Fix here.

 

Came here mostly to report the season-transition issue, but I just saw the reason and solution for that, so that's reassuring =D

I do have an issue to report regarding Marinies Amaranth Quest, though.
Multiplayer; 1.3.21
My friend is the host.
On the day where we got said quest in the mail, we ran into a crash (reason being I had forgotten to remove one multiplayer-incompatible mod before playing, so nothing that needs to be reported here) but after we restarted only my friend got said quest in the mail. We both had letters, with that one we shared, but after the crash I got every piece of mail except for that one. It has not triggered again and I have not gained acess to the quest.

Later on, in the same session, after I had switched to the Vanilla game we had a completely diffrent issue:
We both went to sleep one random night, but instead of displaying the Level Up Menu (my fishing level had increased that day) I got the notification that the connection had closed and was kicked out of the game. No crash and no crash log generated for either of us and my friend was unaffected. We were not able to reproduce that issue and neither of us has an idea what caused it if not that Level Up. Though other level ups before and after that went without issues.

 

Encountered something funky while playing on 1.3.21.

Sometimes I clip through the hardwood fences that are directly next to the corner, allowing me to go through the fence without the need for an opening or the gates I have already placed. Unsure if this matters or not but the clipping occurs when I am riding my horse. My game is 99% vanilla, the only things I had installed prior to trying the beta out are the Easy Fishing mod and portrait changes.

 

Just a minor pathing/terrain issue here, not sure if it's been reported.

During the Spirit's Eve event, inside the maze, there appears to be a misplaced block of impassable terrain. As you can see in the attached screenshot, I (the host) am in the center of the frame and had my farmhand stand behind me, peeking out from inside a bit of hedge which doesn't have its blocking. Directly in front of me the way I'm facing is an invisible block that I can't walk through, assumingly just misaligned from the hedge.

I guess there's two secret passages there for now.

EDIT: Or the screenshot could just not attach the first time, haha~

 

My game just crashen when the give a cave carrot to Marnie event happens (solo mode). When the cinematic starts the lower part of the screen is just black, it seems that the visuals are bugged and they have moved upside. After a few linness of dialog the game crashes and it closes. (I use the spanish language version)

I attach the file of the file report. I can't attach the save file because when I try the page says:

The following error occurred:
The uploaded file does not have an allowed extension.

If you want that info and know how to solve this problem i will post it. Also, if you need some spanish translation i can try to do it.

 

Fix here.

 

Erm- hello! I made an account in hopes for help with my problem! This save file is super important to me 'cause me and my boyfriend have worked together n' completed so much n' I want to continue playing with him etc. etc. etc.

A lot of the time I play alone in-game, mostly when my bf isn't available to play, and I get that Craving for some Stardew. This was one such occasion, and I was happily playing, going on in Spring of year 3, when on the 14th I found myself unable to progress to the next day. Twice I normally went about it, thinking the first time was a one time thing, but it wasn't. I went through the day normally twice, before trying to find solutions to problems like this in the past, but nothing helped! I began to try to open the game, and go straight to bed in hopes that it would save and progress to the next day, but it only has me go to sleep and then proceeds to crash.

I'm not sure exactly what's wrong with my game and/or save files, but attached I have the crash log! (I would attach the save file but it won't allow me to?)

Thank you in advance for helping- I'm desperate ^^;

 

I've been playing on a MP farm with a friend of mine, and this week, suddenly, every time ANYONE joins in the group, it crashes. When I joined, it crashed. When one of the other players joined, it crashed. It didn't do this last weekend, nor any other weekend we've played this farm

 

Found another bug in the beta, not sure if you know about it.

You can "unsell" from day to day from other shipping boxes.

As much detail as I can provide: I created two more of the shipping boxes from Robin on my farm. You know how after you sell something you can "unsell" it by clicking on the last thing sold? Well you can "unsell" the last thing sold from the PREVIOUS day, meaning every morning you can get up, unsell, then resell it, forever, getting a lot of money (depending on what it is)

 

1.3.21.98546

Also playing as a farmhand and seeing both of those behaviors. Slimes fights will break any stones near the slimes as you swing your sword.

This appears to be due to lag in knockback for farmhands. Playing as a group (all with the same equipment), you can see the farmer's swings are knocking creatures back, but there's a noticeable delay for farmhands, that seems to correspond to our likely ping times.

For most creatures, if you time it perfectly, it's possible to play, but serpents are so fast that it's nearly impossible to knock them back. If they do alter their speed in response to a hit, it's long enough after the swing that all it does is pause them on top of you to get another hit in. Yep, it's pretty frustrating.
