Does Stardew Valley have poweruser keyboard support?
I am not an experienced PC gamer but I am a software developer who tries to leave the keyboard as little as possible during the day. I've had a lot of trouble with this in Stardew Valley.
- The biggest pain point is rifling through the back half of my backpack.
- Some questions you can answer with "y"es/"n"o, others require clicking.
- Like watching TV.
- The "X" action is really ambiguous if I'm both holding an object and sometimes rather unsuccessfully trying to pick up an object. Or gift an object, or eat an object, etc.
Are there better keyboard solutions for these problems?
FWIW I'm running a Mac + Wineskin solution.
Alas, it doesn't seem possible to eschew the mouse completely, but here's a handy trick for reorganizing your inventory:
- Find a chest.
- Click all the things you want in the top row of your inventory in your chest (for instance, four types of eggs).
- Click the same number of slots in your top row to clear those spots.
- Now click repeatedly in the upper-left box of the chest until everything is back in your inventory.
This saves you the hassle of dragging and dropping over and over again, and when you're done with the eggs, you can just do an inventory sort to get things back where they were.
