I've been working on a project called the Extended Stardew Predictor. Basically, I'm a big fan of MouseyPounds' Stardew Predictor, but there were some features I wanted to add for my own purposes. Over time, I kept adding more and more to it, and it's reached the point where I think other people might find it useful.
You can find the project here: https://github.com/davidmhammond/stardew-predictor-ext
The biggest addition by far is the Maps tab. This started out as a way to preview your farm, but it grew to let you explore the entire world basically as it appears in the game (with information and predictions sprinkled around), plus fully-featured planner capabilities similar to the Stardew Planner.
Unfortunately, there are some caveats with this project. The app needs access to the complete unpacked game asset files from Stardew Valley, unlike the original Stardew Predictor which gets by on just a small subset of it. I don't want any issues with copyright, so I'm not going to distribute the game asset files. This means I'm not going to host the app myself; users will need to host the app on their own private webserver and extract the game assets themselves. I've included instructions in README.md for how to do this.
Since this is the first release, I expect a lot of bugs. There's a lot of code that has seen very little testing. For the last few weeks, I've been so focused on getting the features fleshed out and ready for release, that I haven't had much time to actually play the game and use this tool in practice yet. I'm looking forward to doing so with my next Stardew Valley playthrough.
I don't know how much I'll be able to work on this project in the future. I have health problems which keep me mostly on my back, and I can only work at a computer in short bursts. This project is open source, and anyone is free to fork it and do whatever they want with it.
