Stardew Valley Multiplayer Beta: Known Issues & Fixes

Whenever a Farmhand rearranges Items in the Museum, they disappear after leaving the Museum. They then have to be donated again.

 

Found a funny little bug while rearranging the Lightning Rods on my farm.

Stand south of a lightning rod sitting beside a chest. (It was to the left of it in my instance.) Face the lightning rod, but aim for the chest with your cursor. Hit the chest with your pickaxe. The chest will not budge, but the lightning rod in front of you will be hit instead—and drop as a chest instead of a lightning rod.

 

I'm hosting a game, friend went into the mines and I noticed while wondering around the farm that every time he swung his sword killing monsters in the mine, grass on the farm would vanish as if it was being hit with an invisible sword.

 

the place which have torch FPS droped badly，especially at night

 

1.

2. Gave my axe over to Clint to upgrade it to iron. 2 days later the man pretends he's never seen my axe in his life. Give me my axe back, Clint. (Had to steal someone else's axe. They got a new one from the mayor, I did not)

3. soft lock when threw fishing rod not far enough to hit water:

 

1. Chests in the mine that are supposed to appear every 10 levels have not been appearing at all.
2. Player spawned in, took a fishing rod from a chest, went to go get his own from the cutscene at the beach and didn't receive it even though the cutscene played.

 

while playing we noticed that too many animated objects may be causing lag in the farm. one of my farmhands dropped 5 torches and it instantly caused severe lag. once removed frames returned to normal. also noted that 6 active furnaces are also causing lag. we even removed all items but there was slight lag after and only restarting server restored it. if someone falls asleep while in the lagged farm outside the game will not save and gets stuck on a black screen. if a farm hand sleeps outside the farm, the game can save. it may be due to the fact they are lagging still and cant hit continue. This was done with 3 people (two times with the 3rd player as a different person.)

While testing with two people only the issue never occured. had over 10 torches, 6 furnaces, and 4 recyclers running at once no problems.

Lastly, farm hands cannot seem to do the quest to get into the adventures guild, it wont count the killed slimes as killed and increase their number.

 

When I play journey of the prairie king until I pass out. When I wake up the song continues to play until the game is restarted.

 

The sound effects for Stardew Valley's distance are off. I will be on my farm and my friend will be mining and I will hear some hitting and the music occasionally.

 

I am not sure exactly what the glitch is but it's either:
When offering an item you can stay in that position forever while time still passes beyond 2 AM
or
If you are offering an item to a player and someone is offering you an item, and the original person who was receiving a gift doesn't do anything then you'll be stuck beyond 2 AM.
Unfortunately I don't have a picture but I think you should test this.
The offer option requires a cancel button aswell.

 

I build junimo hut in my game. After that, my friends can't join to my game. They say "have stop working."

 

I’ve got a few different bugs I’ve been noticing over the last few days. For background I’m playing as a farmhand on my fiancé’s farm and it’s just the two of us.

1. When I go into the mines and swing my sword, occasionally I hit invisible grass, and I also get the drops from it.

2. The horse doesn’t like to let me get off him. On my fiancé’s screen it shows me still riding the horse, while on my screen I’m off it, but he’s sliding around and chasing me. It makes it hard to talk to or interact with objects. This doesn’t seem to happen on the farm, but it happens pretty much anywhere else. Also when exiting a building, I warp onto the horse.

3. The horse seems to have animation problems. He slides around on the ground and won’t properly animate. Standing still for a second has him play a facing forward animation for a few frames. Then he moves just fine until he freezes up again.

4. I’m not sure if this one in intended or not, but I can’t seem to buy blue chickens? I tried for 2 in game days with no luck. I’ve seen Shane’s 8 heart but my fiancé hasn’t. I’m wondering if this is causing problems. Or maybe I just have bad luck.

5. Occasionally when interacting with the furnace I’m able to click on it twice when collecting items. This basically gives me two items for one. It’s only happened a couple times though I’m not sure how to activate it on purpose.

 

Something similar just happened to me in single-player at the same event. No crash, and the minigame timer was still counting down, but my character more or less froze; I couldn't move, but managed to whip out my rod once. After that my character stayed frozen in place with the fishing depth bar over her head. The timer reached zero and nothing happened, so I quit.


(Also just gonna throw in that I had a big issue last night with my farm completely lagging to the point of being unplayable, and just opting out of the beta, then back in and redownloading the update this morning totally fixed it. Wonderful job )

 

I hope i have not overread something but i have the problem that i can not move the buildings anymore in SINGLEPLAYER after i played with friends in MP.
We created a new Farm with the cabins already on it and like in the patch notes in MP is the Movebutton deactivated, so i closed the Setion and switched 2 SP to move the Cabins but as i was talking to Robin and she gave me the Map-Menu where i can hover over the Building 2 move, the cabins were Red. Is this intended or a Bug, because if I place the cabins manualy with the 100 Gold costs, I could move them on my Farm without a problem.

I m not interested in removing them and rebuild them because then my friends will loose all there progress.

 

I am playing single player mode in beta game. I am having character/mouse freezing if I am returning home after midnight. In the first season, spring, I experienced no difficulty. Now, I am in summer season and it has happened to me 3 times out of 5 days played, hence, my character went to sleep outside and got charged for it. Oh dear. Maybe, I should return home earlier. Please note the character glitched across the screen but my mouse icon didn't move or respond. Attaching a screenshot, not sure if it would help.

 

I play stardew valley with my friend and Our FPS Down sometime we sleep then Stardew valley has stopped working and we lost everything from that day Because it is'nt save

 

The Grub monsters in the upper levels of The Mine become invincible and untargetable when they start fleeing from me to turn into Cave Flies. They cannot be stopped from doing so.

 

I had an issue where a friend lent me their pickaxe so I could upgrade mine but still be able to mine. The next day my friend got a letter saying that their pickaxe had been found and was returned to them by their bed, even though it was still in my inventory. I gave my pickaxe to Clint to be upgraded into a copper pickaxe, paid for it and handed the materials over, with my friends original pickaxe still in my bag, but when i went back 2 days later he acted like I'd never given him anything. I tried again with my friends original pickaxe, checked in the next day, and once again he acted like I'd given him nothing. I got a letter the next day and my pickaxe was returned by my bed, but it's still a starting pickaxe, so my 4000 gp and 10 copper bars have just vanished, I guess. I haven't tried to upgrade it since as I haven't had the ore for it, so I'm unsure if it'd still happen.

Also, you can hear milking anywhere on the entire map, even if it's only happening on the farm, and sometimes people fishing will show up in another area of the one section of the map and their line will stretch across the screen to where they actually are.

EDIT: Forgot to add that the recipes on tv aren't always what they should be. I've gotten stir fry for both Sun & Wed shows several weeks in a row. Also when you level up a skill like farming or mining etc it can sometimes announce the level up several nights in a row.

 

Another issue we ran into in our game: I (main player) completed a quest and apparently triggered an achievement, which sent out a notification to all players. It said my farm had been awarded 15,000G, but the money never showed up.

 

bugs from today's gameplay:

items still disappears when you are not the host and you disconnect for some reason. (apparently occurs only for kitchen's inventory, and player's inventory. This "items" includes tools like axe, pickaxe...)

When you try to milk an cow or a goat, and they do not have milk, the message "does not have milk today" appears for all players.

Horses apparently don't like to gallop, they slides (just like in this vídeo that I found ).

Horses don't like to stay alone. If you mount a horse, go out your farm and dismount, he will slide and chase you too fast. This makes it hard to talk to NPCs or interact with objects

If you marriage with Elliott and you are not the host, sometimes he will go to the host's house and will stay on the balcony (Not tested for others husbands or wifes)

Events like when Pierre come to your farm and say that the year is ending and he will have new seeds next year, teleports all players to position of the player who activated the event. (it occured in events like when someone appears in your farm to say someting, first event in community center with Lewis. Heart events don't have this issue)

you can hear the sound of other players with scythe removing the grass anywhere on the entire map
