DataLayers

README.md

Data Layers is a Stardew Valley mod that overlays the world with visual data like accessibility, bee/Junimo/scarecrow/sprinkler coverage, etc. It automatically includes data from other mods if applicable.

Contents

Install

  1. Install the latest version of SMAPI.
  2. Install this mod from Nexus mods.
  3. Run the game using SMAPI.

Use

Press F2 to show the overlay, and then left CTRL and right CTRL to cycle between layers (buttons configurable).

For coverage layers (e.g. scarecrows or sprinklers), point at one with the cursor to see a blue border around that one's range and a green border around the coverage without it.

Below are the current data layers.

Accessibility

Shows where you can walk and highlights warp tiles; useful for finding hidden paths and nooks.

Coverage: bee houses

Shows bee houses' flower search range. (The weird shape isn't a bug, that's the game's actual range.)

Coverage: Junimo huts

Shows Junimo hut coverage, and highlights crops they won't reach. Also works when placing a Junimo hut from the Wizard's build menu.

Coverage: scarecrows

Shows scarecrow coverage, and highlights unprotected crops. Also works on scarecrows being placed.

Coverage: sprinklers

Shows sprinkler coverage, and highlights unsprinkled crops. Also works on sprinklers being placed.

Crops: ready for harvest

Shows which crops are ready to harvest, or which won't be ready before they die due to a season change.

Crops: fertilised

Shows which crops have fertiliser applied.

Crops: watered

Shows which crops have been watered today.

Configure

The mod will work fine out of the box, but you can tweak its settings by editing the config.json file if you want. These are the available settings:

setting what it affects
Controls The configured controller, keyboard, and mouse buttons (see key bindings). You can separate multiple buttons with commas. The default values are F2 to toggle the overlay, left CTRL or left controller shoulder for the previous layer, and right CTRL or right controller shoulder for the next one.
Layers For each data layer, configure...
  • Enabled: whether it should be available in-game.
  • UpdatesPerSecond: how often the layer should update. The maximum is 60 per seconds, but can be less than 1 to update less than once per second (or zero to disable the data layer entirely).
  • UpdateWhenViewChange: Whether to update when your viewpoint in the game changes, regardless of the UpdatesPerSecond value.
CombineOverlappingBorders Default true. When two groups of the same color overlap, draw one border around their edges instead of their individual borders.

Compatibility

Data Layers is compatible with Stardew Valley 1.3+ on Linux/Mac/Windows, both single-player and multiplayer. There are no known issues in multiplayer (even if other players don't have it installed).

Data Layers will automatically integrate with these mods if you they're installed:

mod installed effects
Better Junimos Shows custom Junimo hut range.
Better Sprinklers Shows custom sprinkler range.
Cobalt Shows cobalt sprinkler range.
Pelican Fiber Shows coverage when building a Junimo hut or sprinkler through Pelican Fiber's menu.
