Features

Multiplayer mode is by and large identical to singleplayer mode, though certain features are specific to multiplayer just.

Four Corners subcontract map

The Iv Corners farm map was designed with multiplayer mode in mind. Each quadrant of the map features a small area for perks from some of the other farm maps to manifest, besides as a tiny swimming for players in quadrants besides the quadrant with the large pond to depict water from. Notwithstanding, the Four Corners Map is also bachelor for singleplayer.

Cabins

For motel placement, see Cabin Locations

The subcontract can comprise upwardly to 3 cabins (selectable during farm cosmos). For each cabin congenital, 1 histrion can join the farm. If the farm starts with fewer than 3 cabins (including if the subcontract was begun as a singleplayer relieve file), Robin can build upwards to 3 cabins total on the farm for 100g each. Cabin-edifice is instantaneous, so extra cabins can be built on the commencement mean solar day of the game.

The host player can also demolish a cabin at whatsoever fourth dimension. Demolishing a cabin removes its occupant from the game, and places their inventory in a chest located where the cabin was.

A cabin can be upgraded at the carpenter's store by the farmhand who occupies it, but non by the host or any other player. The interior layout of an upgraded cabin is identical to the interior of an upgraded farmhouse. Every bit with the farmhouse, the physical footprint of the cabin does not change when upgraded.

Profit margins

When creating a new multiplayer salvage, a profit margin of 25%, 50%, 75%, or default (100%) tin be chosen. Opting to lower the turn a profit margin helps rebalance the economy in multiplayer manner by reducing the gilded obtained when selling well-nigh items (including crops, forage, minerals, and cooked foods) to account for the increased productivity from the increased number of active players. For case, at 25% turn a profit margin, Wheat is sold for 6g instead of 25g.

Purchase prices for seeds at Pierre's General Store and purchase prices for Grass Starter, Sugar, Wheat Flour, and Rice at JojaMart are scaled with the profit margin prepare. Prices for other items (including Blacksmith and Fish Store shop items, buildings, and tool upgrades) and quest gilded rewards are not afflicted.

Lowering the profit margin makes gold much harder to come up by in the early game. Progressing in all skills evenly, crafting items, and completing Help Wanted quests become far more of import. For example, Willy nonetheless sells Crab Pots for 1,500g despite the reduced income, then mining iron and crafting Crab Pots may be more than economical.

Notation that there'due south no turn a profit margin option when creating a singleplayer save. However, information technology is possible to have a singleplayer save with a called profit margin by creating a multiplayer save and playing solo. Cull "Co-op" at the main card instead of "New", then "Load" it in singleplayer after the relieve file is created.

Players can marry another histrion by giving them a wedding ring. Married players get a Stardrop in a imperial giftbox next to their home beds after the wedding (equivalent to the Stardrop received from an NPC spouse). A dwelling house is eligible for children if it's owned past one of the married players, has the kids' room upgrade, doesn't already have two children, and both players are sleeping in its bed; the game will randomly let one player propose having children to the other, and if accepted, the child will be added to the home that both players are sleeping in (if eligible), else the other player'southward home (if eligible), else the current home.
