About this mod Machine translation

Optimize and adjust the way players move to improve the gaming experience of keyboard, mouse and controller.

Better Movement

🎮 **A mod that optimizes the mobile experience of Stardew Valley**

✨ Controller optimization

When using a controller, the D-pad now only changes the player's orientation, not their position.

🖱️ New keyboard and mouse mode

Added a new movement mode that is enabled by default:

  • **W key**: Move in the direction of the mouse cursor
  • **A, S, D keys**: No function in this mode
  • **Spacebar**: Switch movement mode (customizable keys)

🌟 **Using experience**: This mode makes map movement smoother and more natural, and the operation method is similar to a 3D game - press W to move forward and use the mouse to control the direction. However, I still recommend using the default movement method when doing tasks that require precise maneuvers, such as watering, planting, harvesting, or plowing.

⚙️ Configuration options

-Default switch key: space bar

  • It is recommended to use the Generic Mod Config Menu module for convenient settings
  • You can also manually edit the `config.json` file

📥 Installation Guide

  • Install the latest version of SMAPI
  • *(Optional)* Install the Generic Mod Config Menu to easily change keybindings
  • Unzip the module folder to the `Stardew Valley/Mods` directory
  • Run the game using SMAPI

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)

  1. Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
  2. Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
  3. Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
  4. Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.

Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
