Improvements to the way fishponds operate, including higher quality fish and improved yields.

Better Fish Ponds

💧 **Make the fish pond experience in Stardew Valley even more complete! **

I've always liked fishpond systems, but always felt like something could be done better. The original fish pond quickly became boring, and while many previous mods tried to improve it, none were comprehensive enough. This is my personal optimized version of the fish pond system!

✨ Main features

🌟 **Keep the original flavor** - On the basis of retaining the core gameplay of the original fish pond, some features have been added to improve the fish pond over time.

🎯 **Core Improvements**:

• 🐟 **Keep fish quality** - Fish placed in the fish pond will maintain their original quality level
• 📈 **Quality Improvement** - Breeding fish and produced items have a chance to improve quality
• 🔄 **Smart Conversion** - When the fish pond reaches maximum capacity and there is no existing output, excess fish are automatically converted into products (requires at least 2 fish)
• 🗑️ **Keep output** - If there are no new products on a certain day, existing output will not be removed

📊 Quality improvement mechanism

The probability of quality improvement is based on the following factors:

• **Average quality of fish in fish ponds**
• **The number of seasons the fish pond has been continuously used** (not vacant)
• **Player’s fishing skill level**

Each factor calculates the probability of improvement independently, which means any item may receive multiple quality improvements!

⚙️ Custom settings

The module provides rich configuration options:

• 🔧 You can switch various functions of the module on and off
• 🎲Adjust the probability parameters of various quality improvements
• 📋 Choose which items/categories can enjoy quality improvements

🔗 Compatibility Notes

🔗 **Good Compatibility** - This module is mainly implemented by fine-tuning the original game logic and has high compatibility with other modules.

✅ **VERIFIED COMPATIBLE**:

• Walk Of Life - Profession Overhaul (Basically tested and patched)

⚠️ **NOTE**: Any mods that implement similar functionality may cause conflicts
