PolyCarts
🚂 **A complete minecart system overhaul module**
✨ Core Functions
- **Exploration and Discovery**: Each minecart destination is initially unknown and you need to find and interact with it yourself to unlock and use it.
- **Magic Minecart Realm**: The mysterious Expa Realm will open for you when you have at least one supported custom location mod or arrive at Ginger Island
- **Personalized Naming**: All minecarts can be renamed, making it easier for you to distinguish different minecarts
🗺️ System optimization
*Removed bus stop minecart* as the new minecart system makes it redundant and clogs the destination menu
- **Town Minecart**: Renamed to match the new format and the map has been significantly changed
- **Quarry Minecart**: renamed, map slightly adjusted to match mod aesthetics
- **Mine Cart**: Leave it as is, as it is already perfect

💡 **Usage Recommendations**: It is recommended to install this mod before starting a new save for the best experience!
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.
