Looks like he's talking about the Switch 2 version (v1.7), I'm still running v1.6.15.11 and from what I can tell most people having this issue are still running the Switch 1 version that I am.

I wonder if he'll create a patch for v1.6, or if I should update to v1.7.

I'm also running v1.6.15.11 and this was about that update it was about the switch 2 conversion and he plans on patching it. 1.7 isn't out yet

I am playing on switch2 on the latest switch2 update. I am Experiencing a weird mystic syrup bug. Or maybe it’s a workbench bug.
  • I’ve Never had mystic tree
  • I’ve Never made any mystic syrup (didn’t even know it existed until this bug)
  • When I go to my workbench to craft 1 treasure totem at a time and shows that I have over 200 mystic syrup.
  • When I craft using this syrup, the number of mystic syrup doesn’t decrease.
  • I don’t have any mystic syrup, in any of chests. In fact the number of mystic syrup is increasing as I keep crafting treasure totems
  • It will let me craft a ton of treasure totems using this mystic syrup, but only one will appear in my backpack at a time despite how many times I craft it
I’m not sure how to reproduce this, but my game file feels like it’s starting to get buggy. Items I’ve purchased with Qi gem have been disappearing from my backpack. (Like galaxy souls which really sucks for me) I’m in year 5.

Thanks! Love the game!
I've also lost my galaxy Souls to the bug! Don't craft anything out of the norm with anything valuable in your inventory til it's fixed. It has also happened with my warp totems and horse flute. Be careful :')

Right, didn't even realize that v1.7 wasn't out yet. Thought I had seen something about it but I was mistaken.

🤞Hopefully CA is able to get a patch out sooner than later, I wanna play so bad and just realized that all of my catalogues have also disappeared.. so no home customizations for me.

I hope CA realizes the glitch includes things much more rare and valuable than moss.
I know 😖 I'm hoping so as well. I haven't seen any other updates from him or his team regarding this yet, unfortunately it appears to limited to only the console version and not PC, which I know is a much lower priority for them as the mass majority play on PC.

Honestly at this point if there was a way for me to port my current game (~226+ hours) over to the PC version, I would. Seems like alot less bugs and mods galore 😍

After the 1.6 update came to console a minor update caused the Artifact Troves when opened by Clint crashed the game. This was resolved in days. I think the delay for a patch is due to holidays and severity of the glitch.

My understanding is he reads the forums to identify the problems.
That's what I've heard, but I'm honestly surprised he hasn't come out and given a statement outlining the issues and reassuring everyone that he's working on it. He's typically super responsive on stuff like this.

Maybe instead he's just rounding off the finishing touches on v1.7 instead and he's gonna roll that out for us all asap... one can wish hah 😅

we can hope but history has shone that major updates like that come to console last. So I'm sure he'll patch the bugs before releasing 1.7. I don't think that one will be ready until mid to late next year at the earliest. That's a long time to leave this bug in the game.

My Horse Flute vanished after making Treasure Totems too! It's a bummer I only realized it was gone the next day, so I guess it's gone for good :(

After updating to 1.6.15.11 on Nintendo Switch, I noticed a glitch where if you have two of any Warp Totem and at least 28 Omni Geodes, you can craft a Deluxe Worm Bin.

Version # 1.6.15.11 (v1.6.15 build 11)
I don't get an error message, but I don't have any of the traditional items needed for the Deluxe Worm Bin.

Before posting this, I wasn't sure of how to upload a save file from the Switch, and the instructions include modification instructions, which I'm reluctant to do given how Nintendo treats modders. I'm trying my best to give the most information I can about the glitch so it might be replicated: it's happening on a save I started the week before the update.

Nintendo Switch, System version 21.1.0
In game language: English
Single player game
I'm playing with the device (not on the TV)

Extra info that might help;
As I was testing this glitch, I was making more totems, and I think the glitch might have something to do with items that result in the final item? (No idea if that makes sense, but the Treasure Totem showed that it was able to be crafted, and the only mystic tree item I had in my inventory was the tree seed.)
Just noticed this too - my bf and I have a co-op save on switch and it him create deluxe worm bins without regular worm bins. It used his farm warp totems and then cave jellies to create them. Had to restart the day because we needed the cave jellies + totems, and we weren't expecting them to get used when creating the deluxe worm bin. Not sure if it would have the same issue if we had the proper items for the deluxe worm bin in inventory

So I was fishing in stardew valley version 1.6.15 build 11 on my switch 2. I noticed I could craft deluxe bate even though I had no moss in my inventory. I decided to craft it to see what would happen and it took an artifact I had and a geode. I started looking to see what over item also work in this way and so fare I’ve found that all artifacts work (at least all the ones I’ve tested) all 4 geode type and green algae. Idk if anything else does this but I definitely know these items do. This doesnt effect the geodes being opened at Clint’s or donating artifacts but idk what is happening. I did take a video of the bug but I can’t attach it here.

So much inventory and time lost. Key to city, horse flute 3x, blue grass making supplies, galaxy souls, prismatic shards, catalogs.

Will there be any way to get any of this back without having manually re-acquire?

I’ve seen a few other people are having crafting glitches, but this particular one caught me off guard.

I was looking through the advanced crafting menu whilst I had a bunch of random stuff in my inventory, and noticed that deluxe bait was lit up even though I had no moss on me. I selected it to see what would happen and it used my crab pots, of all things, as moss 😅

I’m pretty far into my save and have plenty of accumulated money and resources, so it wasn’t a huge deal to me. But I could definitely see it being annoying early game when every resource is precious - just something to watch out for

Yes I have seen the same issue on my switch as well. Using Same build.

What was alarming to me is it used my horse flute - Once when crafting a Treasure Totem it used my horse flute, and once when crafting Magic Bait it used my horse flute. The only common factor I was able to determine is the bug seems to be related to crafting something that requires Moss.

I've had to repurchase my horse flute 3 times now - since this is a hard item to obtain it's a little frustrating, and horse flutes are not used in any crafting recipes. If I didn't have a large stockpile of qi gems this would be quite upsetting.
