Multiplayer Mod Checker

🎮 **Multiplayer Game Module Coordination Assistant**

This module is specially designed for the multiplayer game of "Stardew Valley" to help players ensure that the module configurations of all participants are consistent and avoid game problems caused by module mismatch.

✨ Core Functions

  • **Automatic Mod Comparison**: When the farm worker joins the game, automatically compare the modules installed by the host and the farm worker.
  • **Difference Report**: Generates a detailed summary of differences showing which mods don't match
  • **File Output**: Generates detailed reports in text files and JSON format for console players
  • **Flexible configuration**: You can customize to ignore certain modules that do not need to be checked

🚀 How to use

  • **Only host needs to install**: Only host players need to install this module (farm workers can also install it to view reports)
  • **View report**:
  • When farm workers are added, check the SMAPI console to see a summary of differences
  • Console players will receive two detailed report files:
  • 📄 Text file (.txt) - contains instructions and information
  • 🔧 JSON files (.json) - easier to read for large reports
  • **Custom settings**:
  • Adjust mod behavior by editing the `config.json` file
  • Can set hidden report level
  • A list of module IDs that can be ignored for checking can be added

⚙️ Configuration options

  • **HideReportInTrace**: Whether the console summary is written at TRACE level
  • **IgnoredMods**: List of module IDs to ignore checking (for modules that only need to be installed on one side)

💡 **Usage Suggestions**: Before starting a multiplayer game, it is recommended that all players use this module to check the module consistency to ensure a smooth and unobstructed 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.
