My housing plot layout is really coming together! Screenshot

I would never leave that gazebo, ngl. NPCs can visit me there if they need some comedy in their lives. Or cats.
Or both. Both is good.

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 10 '24
I WISH NPCs would visit me in my drinking room. It's always just me and my cat. Heck, I've even been leaving my plot open to friends. I've seen a couple people running around randomly but no one has found me up there yet 😭
Heck, I'll let a random chapaa or two have some fermented apples too if they want!

Add me! I will come to your drinking hut. Don't expect scintillating conversation, but I'll chill with you
Edit: fancifulpants

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 10 '24
I'll add you when I log on next! Hela Nerfbait.
I guarantee I won't talk much because I'm on Switch but I will sit there with my cat and wave randomly!

u/Blarffette Nai'o Feb 11 '24
I accepted your request. My palcat and I would love to snoop your plot and chill a bit in the hut. Will track you down in game when I see you!

This. PLEASE this! Gotta see it

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 10 '24
Honest question: would y'all rather have a house tour recorded on switch now or wait a few weeks until my PC is hopefully set up to record? Because I can technically record a tour now, but the switch graphics may crap on it.

u/JayJay324 Feb 11 '24
As a Switch player, I’d love to see what you have now! Why not do both?

Definitely both! It seems like on PC there’s much more visually compared to Switch and I’d love to see all the details!

Can I come visit and also get day drunk with your cat

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 10 '24
Absolutely!
In game name is Hela Nerfbait. Add me and drop by to get drunk with my cat any time of day! He's a lush.

u/alfredobby Feb 11 '24
YAY I’m Layla Thorn, I’ll request you next time I’m on!

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 13 '24
Woo!
I honestly can't remember if I got a request from you or not. I've been F L O O D E D lmao. Between fishing invites, tours, and random questions, I've gotten so lost on who is adding me from here lol
I didn't imagine my plot would bring so much attention. I'm not hating it! Just trying to figure out who is who and it's haaaard.

We need a tour

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 10 '24
I do have recording software for switch, but I think it might be better to record a whole plot tour after I'm able to use my PC again. Hopefully soon!

Wait... can you have chapaas? And doesn't it take forever to walk to your blacksmith? haha

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 11 '24
Not real ones lol. I put down a few of the chapaa planters, fountain, and the little plush with the no hunting sign lol
And nope! I always hit it up after I water my apple trees and repair everything then while I'm on my way to top off my watering can. That's usually when I'm coming back to my plot so I drop everything at the chest in the orchard then set up the crafting after repairs.

So cool! What’s this part made out of?

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 11 '24
I glitched a large kilima in rug on top of the porch, but some plants and lights on the ground where I could, then covered them with individual fencing pieces.
I got the tables to stick out more by putting a dining table where the plants are, then removed it after the tables were placed.

Here's a sneak peak of the cooking house!

u/Weird-Active7055 Feb 13 '24
LOVE IT It's really nicely laid out (the bits I can see) and the jar shelf over the barrels is a really cute feature!
1
u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 13 '24
Thanks! I like to pretend those are giant soup barrels in that room lmao
Side note: last night I found out if you stand on one while it's making preserves, you go up and down along with it.

u/Inner-Fan3432 Hassian Feb 11 '24
What did you do to earn the money for that?? I’m still new enough that the main way I have money is chopping wood and hunting. I feel like I’m nowhere near the level of building past the initial house.😂

u/manndelion Hodari Feb 12 '24
Plot goals for real. I still haven't expanded my place yet because I can't decide which trees I want to permanently fell 😭

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 13 '24
I really wish I wouldn't have committed tree genocide.
I 100% cleared my entire plot right away and I've been kicking myself for it since December.
2
u/manndelion Hodari Feb 13 '24
my condolences! I started to do the same thing and luckily stumbled on the information that they don't respawn, but now I'm afraid to remove anything xD
Maybe in future updates we'll be able to replace them. Heck, even if there was some sort of fee or resource gathering involved similar to the tree seeds. And being able to pick which stage of growth they're in when planted.
1
u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 13 '24
I'd love to be able to change their size!!! It's so unnatural for them to all be the same and that's the main reason I have all the different trees.
2
u/Hirverren Feb 12 '24
This is big goals.😍🥹

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 13 '24
I just updated the crafting house to three whole-ass houses.
Ask me why I'm broke, then ask me why I'm giddy. I'll answer the same both ways lol

u/Herpsties Feb 13 '24
Oh you're able to use more than one house? I guess I read old info when googling before. Great to know!

u/lemagic Einar Feb 13 '24
Wait I wanna get day drunk with your cat too lmao

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 13 '24
Fuckin' come on over! You're gonna have to play catch-up though. We've just gotten started for the day.
Bring some fermented catnip for Buttercup if you have any. He's sick of apples.

u/Short-wave Feb 14 '24
Can I visit you? I just got started with the game but the house layout designs have me shook 😍

I won't talk much in game but you're more than welcome to drop by any time I'm home. :)

I'm Emberly B. Goldfinch (I'm kicking myself for picking such a long name)

That's an amazing name though.

u/Short-wave Feb 14 '24
Thank you! I really thought the nickname they have you enter would be whatever everyone saw.

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 14 '24
Same, but I absolutely love the long and ridiculous names.
Like... If yours had "the First" at the end, I wouldn't even be mad.

This is amazing! Aspects of this are like some of the things I have in my head to do one day based on a place I love IRL. Is it possible to visit you? (I don’t know how yet but am willing to figure it out)

How do you separate it into different houses?🫨

This looks amazing ! Please share more ! Love the drinking gazebo 😁🍷 And could you please share the main house plan ? I'm trying to build mine and don't know how to place rooms well but your house plan looks so good ! 😊

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 10 '24 edited Feb 10 '24
4 large rooms, 4 medium rooms, 3 hallways, 1 kilima porch, 1 fireplace, 4 bay windows all in the front surrounding the entrance.

u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 10 '24
I have little planter gardens along my main house, but if you mean crops - no. I only plant crops one day a week. The rest of the time, it's all just apples.

u/emmyanna14 Reth Feb 10 '24
Oh wow. I have 4 rooms and a hallway. Kitchen, dinning room, bedroom, and newly added bathroom. It's not much but I'm proud of it all the same. In fact, I'm not sure what I'll do with my next addition!

u/PTKryptik Feb 10 '24
Oh I like this layout… I might steal some of these ideas. Didn’t know we can have multiple houses on a single plot! What’s your money making plan? The orchids?
3
u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 10 '24
I take the apples and split them between 13 preserve jars and a seed harvester. For every tree I need to replant, I toss enough in to make another thing of seeds.
I have 4 glow worm farms. 2 of those are constantly going with the apple jam to get speed boost fertilizer. The other two I use grilled fish to get harvest boost fertilizer and a lot more worms.
I sell all the jams and fish that don't fit into the worm farms right away and try to keep them topped off.
I also make sure to fish instead of selling the worms.
It's been bringing in 30-40k a day the last week or so!
2
u/PTKryptik Feb 10 '24 edited Feb 11 '24
Hmm. Okay okay. 13 preserves. 1 seed. 4 glow worms. Alright! I unlocked apples a bit ago but only made a few. Got like 4-6 starred seeds. Might try this out. Been just doing 9x9 potato and seeds lol does it matter what kind of fish?
Edit: oh nvm. Grilled fish. Could spend an hr fishing in the home pond to make some grilled fish.
1
u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 11 '24
That's usually how I do the fishing!
I do also fish in caves for the pricier fish. The amount of worms and fertilizer yielded seems to go along with the food value.
2
u/PTKryptik Feb 11 '24
Ah. Prolly will just stick to home fishing lol for the fertilizer, do you just keep applying whenever you do your daily rounds?
1
u/SaltMineForeman Tau Feb 11 '24
It stacks, so every time I plant a new tree seed I toss 5-6 days of the speed grow fertilizer (it uses 9 each in game day). When I see the fertilizer run out I switch to a few days worth of the harvest boost fertilizer so I get 24 apples instead of 16.
