Hello Stardew Valley Players!
This post is here for the sole purpose of you sharing whatever you want for 1.7 update. (If ConcernedApe ever does release a 1.7 update of course)
I have taken the time to research a lot of things that people want, with a few things that I threw in.
If you want your idea to be added to the list just post it in the comments down below, I will try to add it to the list as fast as I can!
This post is going to be pretty long so be prepared!
About the dehydrator: its current availability is pretty embarrassing. It neither saves the quality level of fruits and mushrooms, nor does it allow the insertion of five different quality levels of items (fruit or mushrooms). We sincerely hope that the quality level of the input items will be preserved when processing fruits and mushrooms in the new version.
Regarding the automatic Petter: it is very valuable and practical, but it was difficult to obtain in previous versions. Additionally, the difficulty of obtaining this item is significantly different between the two progression paths, Community Center and Joja. We all hope to add more automatic Petter acquisition channels in the new version.
Regarding special tasks: Why can't we add a "refresh task" option? This option allows players to refresh a week's worth of special missions by using some Gold Gems or Qi Gems. In previous versions, it was common to get repeated missions multiple times in a row, thus preventing important missions from being obtained in time (e.g. "Island Ingredients", "Danger in the Abyss", "Skull Cave Invasion"). We believe this adjustment will greatly improve the playability of the mission system.
Regarding "Radioactive Ore": This mineral is extremely valuable. It is very useful, but it is extremely difficult to obtain and has extremely high requirements. We recommend increasing its purchase quantity in regular mines to better meet players' needs in the game. However, its actual performance is not satisfactory. Therefore, we can add one of two features to it: 1) automatically fetch processed items; 2) expand its scope from only feeding the immediately preceding processor to feeding the next ten adjacent processors.
