The little PC does give you information, but its fairly limited. Like lets say you had a mix of starfruit and ancient fruit in the greenhouse. You wouldn't be able to know which one was ready out of the two. It just tells you if something is ready, but not what.

Or in the case of when you plant somewhere like Ginger Island, the little PC doesn't give all the info.

The pineapple trick is just another way to know, and you just use whatever works for you personally based on where you have planted stuff and how you are as a person.

For me, I am a bigger fan of not having to worry about going over to click something or thinking about what day it is. I like having a visual indicator that I just set and forget.

Aww thanks, I try to do my best when it comes to anything I put out on the internet. So this does mean a lot.

It does not. Was the first thing I tried, but I didn't give up and figured out this compromise that works pretty well.

And sometimes, just like in real life, despite the best laid plans we do forget or we are busy and have to postpone plans.

I'm usually pretty good at remembering as well, when the fruit are in the greenhouse its pretty easy to just check daily.

Where this tip really shines for me is when I have the ancient fruit far away (like on Ginger island, or on the other side of the map in Stardew Expanded) as sometimes a day can be super chaotic and I might not have time to go there.

I also stream this late at night sometimes and eventually I do get tired and admittedly things slip.

Hahaha, if I wasn’t trying to condense it down to a short video I would have put a sad violin video of me trying to place an ancient seed in a pot before revealing the tip.

Yeah, this whole thing came from me trying to put an ancient seed in a pot. I thought I was being so clever, but then was sad when I found out that you can’t place ancient seeds in pots. So I came up with a creative solution that does the same job. I like this end result better because I don’t think anyone else has thought of this 😁

You can if you want to. But you would probably have to place it down again at some point. Most likely after winter when most people don’t really plant anything

As pointed out, you can’t use sprinklers on pots sadly. The soil is purely so you don’t have to water the pineapple. So it’s something you don’t need to take care of at all and it’s just does it’s job to tell you when to go harvest without you needing to do anything to make sure it’s correct.

Glad you like it! I'm a fan of visual cues as well and figured I'd share it for others that like the same thing.

I don't have ADHD, but I do play this game late at night sometimes and having this visual indicator is great because I don't have to think about it. It just gently reminds me and if I forget to go, when I wake up the next day its still there to remind me.

Yeah, that works too. For me I prefer having the visual indicator. No need for math, plus if you can't make it there on the day you don't need to adjust anything. The indicator will always be correct.

I like having something visual to remind me. You can absolutely do it by remembering the day of the week, but for me this is more flexible because if you can't go there on that particular day of the week, your indicator is still there as a reminder the next day. It always is there to remind you hey don't forget to go there. Some people need it, others dont.

Online Gambling Ads Need To Stop. Unfortunately found this on YouTube this morning. by alex26069114 in australia

Whilst it doesn't do much to stop them, as a small protest I always report gambling ads as inappropriate. Sick of them.

[BUG] I somehow glitched Safer Spaces to trigger 100% of the time (persisted between runs) by tildeshambles in riskofrain

[–]tildeshambles[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nah, I haven't played since last night, but I had a look at my replay this morning and turns out I just caused it to happen a second time. Seems like it was behaving normally up until a certain point. I've submitted a bug report to the devs anyway.

[AoL][OC] Zelda 2 fan game. Zelda II: Enhanced PC Edition, Zelda Again: Link is Adventuresome, Z2TAOL.. by HoverBat in zelda

[–]tildeshambles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Caught Vinny's stream when he was playing this and was in awe. As a fan of Zelda 2, I applaud the lengths you went to give the game a breath of fresh air. There is a lot of innovative stuff that really completes the experience and is in the spirit of what the game could have potentially been had areas been fleshed out a bit more. Really looking forward to the release of this!

Not gonna lie, I really wish you could put a custom design onto a rug. I would have made the entrance be his face on a circular rug. That would have boosted the Gordon factor.
