Easier Cave Puzzle

Makes that cave puzzle easier.

This mod makes that one cave puzzle easier.

By default, it simply requires the player interact with the statue again before the next round plays; this allows you to take a breather between rounds. But optionally, you can slow down the patterns (by increasing the SpeedModifier) or make the flashes last longer (by increasing FlashScale). You can also cap the maximum number of notes in eacn round with MaxNotes.

Install

  • Install the latest version of SMAPI.
  • Download and install AtraCore.
  • Download this mod and unzip it into Stardew Valley/Mods.
  • Run the game using SMAPI.


Configuration

  • SpeedModifer: A multiplier that controls the gap between notes in the puzzle. Set higher to increase the gap between notes. This can be set locally (1 = same as vanilla.)
  • FlashScale: A multiplier that controls how long the flashes of light last. Set higher for them to last longer. This can be set locally (1 = same as vanilla.)
  • MaxNotes: Caps the maximum number of notes per round. (Default to 7, same as vanilla). Host must set this - it is ignored for farmhands.
  • PauseBetweenRounds: If set true, the puzzle will pause between rounds - you must talk to the statue again to continue. Host must set this - it is ignored for farmhands. (Much thanks to unlitday for writing the dialogue for me!)
  • AllowReAsks: Whether or not the statue will repeat the pattern if asked to.


Compatibility

  • Works with Stardew Valley 1.5.6 on Linux/macOS/Windows.
  • Works in single player, multiplayer, and split-screen mode. Probably best if everyone installs this mod in multipalyer.
  • Should be compatible with most other mods.


Technical note: this mod heavily relies on transpilers and may not be compatible with any other mod that edits the cave puzzle.
