Better Special Orders

✨ **Version: 1.2.0**

This mod adds re-refresh functionality and a variety of customization options to the Special Order Board, giving you greater control over the in-game mission system!

🎮 How to use

After installing the mod for the first time, the configuration file will be automatically generated. By default, the mod will not change any game mechanics. If you don't configure anything, the game experience will be exactly the same as the original version.

⚙️ Configuration options

General settings

  • **Use True Random**: Use a completely random refresh mechanism when enabled, and use the random seed of the current game when disabled.
  • **Reset shortcut key**: Set a shortcut key to allow the host to reset the refresh times of all order boards on the day
  • **Forced unique tasks**: When enabled, your unfinished tasks will be displayed first when refreshing

Order Board Specific Settings

Each order board has independent configuration options:

  • **Allow Refresh**: Enable the refresh function of this order board
  • **Unlimited Refresh**: Enable unlimited refresh times
  • **Maximum number of refreshes**: Set the maximum number of refreshes available to the entire team
  • **Auto Refresh Schedule**: Automatically refresh the order board at the beginning of the specified date

Native supported order board

The module natively supports the following order board refresh functions:

  • Stardew Valley Bulletin Board
  • Mr. Qi’s order board
  • Desert Festival Notice Board
  • SVE Module Bulletin Board
  • Ridge Village Bulletin Board

Other bulletin boards not listed will use CUSTOM settings. If you find any bulletin boards that are not supported, please submit a report!

❓ FAQ

Why can’t I see the refresh button?

Please check the configuration to make sure the "Allow refresh" option is enabled for the order board you have open.

In multiplayer, farm workers can see the button but can't refresh?

Please ask the homeowner to check that their configuration settings are correct.

No response when clicking the refresh button?

It may be that the number of refreshes has been exhausted. Ask the homeowner to edit and close the GMCM menu and try again.

🎯 **Tip**: It is recommended to familiarize yourself with the original special order system first, and then adjust the module settings according to personal preferences to get the best gaming experience!

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.
