💡 Design Concept
I felt that the scarecrow should be placed on the sprinkler like a torch, so I made this mod to achieve this function!
⚠️ Compatibility Notes
This mod's functionality to show scarecrow protection ranges has compatibility issues with UI2's similar functionality. If this mod and UI2 are installed at the same time, it is recommended to turn off the range display function of UI2 and only enable the range display function of this mod.
🔄 Notes
- If the scarecrow is already placed on the sprinkler, the scarecrow on the sprinkler will disappear after turning off this mod
- But the scarecrow itself is still at the sprinkler and can be recovered with an ax or pickaxe
- Scarecrow will reappear after restarting the mod

Let the scarecrow protect your crops while beautifying your farm! 🌻
Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)
- Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
- Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
- 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.
