Switch [BUG] Infinite Qi Gems from Walnut Room Vending Machine

[Tarcinil]

It is possible to sell infinite walnuts to the Walnut Room's over and over, while never having to leave the room. I have completed Qi's tasks while never not being able to perform this. I do not know if this works once you have gathered all of the Golden Walnuts as I can not test for that condition. I also have not tested this on other mediums as I am not that far in any other medium. I have only confirmed via the Switch.

Version Information
===
Switch OS Version: 12.1.0
Stardew Version: 1.5.4.2
Language: English
Mode: Single Player

Conditions
===
Golden Walnuts Found: 129/130
Total Complete: 45%

Steps to reproduce:
===
1. Head to Qi's Walnut Room
2. Go to Vending Machine; at the bottom, you should sell all your walnuts for Qi Gems (this is a prereq, you should not see the line item for Qi Gems anymore)
3. Exit the vending machine
4. Enter a chat session by pressing down on the right joycon
5. Press A to open up the keyboard
6. Enter the command on keyboard

/recountnuts

7.Press + on joycon or move to OK
8. You should hear a Golden Walnut sounds, and there should be more walnuts available (11 in my case). This can be verified by a counter in the upper left hand that you commonly see with walnuts, as well the character tab (located just above the wallet)
9. Go back in to the Vending Machine, sell your walnuts again
10. Repeat from step 3

Hmmm... I'll have to try to remember to test this when I get to Ginger Island on one of my newer saves, to see if it also affects PC. All the ones where I already got there, I've already collected all the walnuts and sold them long ago, so can't try.

I’ve never verified that condition. It might be worth trying to rule it out.

This works on all platforms. It's a side effect of /recountnuts.

The specifics are that the game checks how many nuts the parrot can give hints for. It then works out how many walnuts are required for all the unlocked parrots. It takes this number off of 130, and puts this into your inventory.

The game doesn't track how many qi gems have been purchased using nuts, so it keeps refilling your nut supply.

(I showed this on my stream when I was demonstrating how /recountnuts worked, but left it out of my post)
