Switch Various bugs 1.6.9 Switch

Been loving the new update but encountered a few bugs and glitches that I would love to see patched. All of these are on the latest update 1.6.9.36 on the Nintendo switch on local coop split screen.

1) using bombs crashes the game and takes you back to the switch start menu. Seems fine with 1 player but in coop it instant crashes.

2) the trader on ginger island no longer trades golden coconuts. This is something I saw another person mention on another thread. Both P1 and P2 have found new golden coconuts and had them opened but the trader still isn’t trading them. Before the update we had been trading them regularly.

3) the volcano mine is empty of enemies and rocks/ minerals/ anything if entered by P2. If P1 enters everything generates normally and then P2 can follow after and it’s fine but if P2 just goes in alone then all the levels are completely empty.

4) the normal mine has had moments where the enemies are completely frozen and the players can’t seem to interact with anything.

5) general crashes. The game crashes far more frequently compared to before the big update (not including the specific crashes for the bombs). For example the most recent one occurred when a player interacted with a Junimo chest. Game in general has been less stable with odd crashes happening every now and then.

Really enjoying the new content so hopefully these can be addressed!
 
Yes they will be addressed soon in upcoming patch. Bug fix priority currently is:
1. Performance issues and crashes.
2. Game breaking bugs that prevent normal progression.
3. Object spawn issues.
4. Aesthetic and dialogue issues.

Some will be done alongside top priority bugs soon, but others may need more time to fix as not all have been easily replicated to find the cause.

On my switch I am having issues using the workbench. I tried removing everything from the chests and replacing them. I even tried buying a new workbench from Robin. Regardless what I do the workbench will not pull from the surrounding (touching) chests.

I'm having a similar issue with chests and workbenches. My workbench does pull from the chest next to it, but the crafting menu shows 0 of every resource not held directly in my inventory. Recipes are still lit up if they can be made, but I don't know how many I can make. If they can't be made, I have no idea what is actually missing, since it says I have 0 of everything.

This remains the case after updating to 1.6.9.37 this morning.

I noticed a couple issues as well. The junimo chest texture when an egg was incubated, it turned normal after hatching and a new egg layed into it, maybe needed refresh since it was My first time coming back after a break playing last in 1.5. I am at winter right now and when I entered the town I heard tree breaking noises, and random tree resources at every npc house basicly.
I remember specifically Emily's house and maybe mayor's house that I saw resources at.
But the most annoying bug for Me was seeing all My warp obelisks/totem obelisks, had totally vanished. I had all except island one. But the normal tiny obelisk was still there that was a problem for some earlier patches.

Currently running 1.6.9.37 on switch, and have been unable to join a co-op split screen game as player 2. It gets to the character selection screen, lets you select the player 2 character, then screen goes black for a few seconds before crashing. Happens consistently. I'm in Fall of year 5, farm existed before the 1.6 update, if it makes a difference.

This is so helpful! Thank you for this post. We saw the latest update drop and are enjoying finally having bombs back, at least. The game seems to stutter far less in two player as well. I had no idea that the Volcano issue was related specifically to player 2, so that's super helpful as well. We're looking forward to that getting fixed in a future update as we often divvy up tasks and going to get cinder shards is usually my responsibility (forever player 2 :P)

Thanks once again to CA for the care and attention with this game. I just finished watching Nintendolife's interview with him at PAX West. Please include Felix's beach theme in a future update! :)

Just wanted to add something here too (I commented on another thread where my spouse is currently stuck in a fence)

I’ve been playing SD for a while on my switch and love it. I’ve had zero issue with it freezing/glitching/crashing on 1.5. It ran extremely smoothly for me. And I run on a switch lite. Nothing fancy. However since installing the update, it’s been so glitchy, that every like 5/10 minutes it just freezes for that half a second and interrupts my game play. Then last night I was in the middle of trying for the legend, and I had Caroline walk past me on the bridge, which then was stuck for moment. Normally not a big deal, all the villagers just go around. However for whatever reason, when she went to go around that was the exact moment I finally got a fish reeled in and BAM. It just was gone, made the sounds as if I had gotten it? But no fish, I was devastated….for like at least 30 very solemn seconds.

Now after the newest update this morning, my husband is stuck in a fence and I’m freezing every two seconds. It’s madness I tell you!

Anyways, the village days do go on. My NPC husband will survive. Thoughts and prayers guys.

We updated our game to 1.6.9.37 (the new update on switch) but keep having issues for example

In some cavern layers we're experiencing frozen floors, we can find stays / holes but doesn't give loot / bombs don't go off

Some times it just crashed ( we also had this in 1.5 update on switch,, it's just super annoying happening at 11pm or so)

I just wanted to chime in and say I’m also having this issue, and it’s happening in my fridges as well! It does not show me how much of something I can make. On top of that, I think it is only pulling from some (not all) of my fridges the way that it used to. I’ll have to move some food around to confirm it, but I have SO many recipe items in my fridges and am usually able to make countless items. Now only a few show as available to cook (and they all still say I have zero of the items to make it).

Stardew Valley on Switch
v1.6.9 build 37


Kicking Krobus out of my house always crashes the game overnight. I have tested this by making it my only activity and going to bed but it always crashes. I'm sure it'll be patched eventually but I have not seen others bring up this issue yet with 1.6 on the Switch.

Playing on Switch Lite game version 1.6.9.37

I am unable to remove hay from hopper inside a standard Coop. I have a silo on farm and it is full, but interacting with A or Y buttons on either hopper or the feeding tray does nothing to retrieve hay.

Do you have any updates on when this fix is coming, if it hasn't come already? The Switch version of the game is nearly unplayable, having to restart the game every time a new oddity appears or run the risk of having to start a completely new save due to bugs causing all kinds of weirdness.

Hello! Playing on Switch ver. 1.6.9.37 and my iridium pan no longer seems to work! Won’t work on any panning spots, even very close by. Tested this on multiple spots on my farm as well as the desert.

It's been 4 months, what is the time line looking like? This game is how me and my wife pass time together, and now it's been pretty much unplayable for 4 months with no fixes. Even if the time line is vague it would be appreciated
