Tired of selling millions of blueberries every summer? Want to try out various crop mods but can't resist the urge to maximize profits? Ferngill Simple Economy introduces a stochastic economic system where crops follow basic supply and demand rules. Sell ​​too many items and their prices can plummet! But time the market correctly and you could make a killing.

Ferngill Simple and Economical

🌟Module introduction

Ferngill Simple Economy is an economy mod that makes Stardew Valley follow the rules of supply and demand! 🎯 By adding an additional economic challenge to the game, there is no longer an optimal crop to maximize profits, making every planting strategic.

💡 Core Features

✨ **Intelligent supply and demand system**:

  • Selling price decreases when item supply is high
  • When the supply of items is low, the selling price may be higher than the original price.
  • Encourage crop diversification

✨ **AUTO COMPATIBILITY**:

  • Automatically supports all mods that add crops/items
  • Works without additional configuration

📊 How it works

Supply

Supply will affect the selling price of items:

  • 🔻 High supply = low price
  • 🔺 Low supply = high price

Supply changes under the following circumstances:

  • Sell items in the store
  • Sell items via shipping boxes
  • Apply daily changes at the end of each day

Daily changes

The supply of each item changes automatically every day:

  • Can be a positive or negative number

-Reset once every season

  • Allows you to plan only a limited amount of time in advance

🎮 Price mechanism

💵 **Price Lock**: The price is fixed every day, even if you sell a large amount of items

📈 **Strategy Choice**: Stock up on crops to maximize profits, or sell early to ensure cash flow?

📊 **Menu Display**: Displays the selling price of normal quality items on the current date

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.
