A Stardew Valley player has pointed out that there's an easier way to fix fences than chopping down the rotting posts. It seems a lot of Stardew Valley fans didn't realize that this easy method existed, and it's gaining traction as a result.
Some Stardew Valley fans have spent hundreds or even thousands of hours playing the game, but that doesn't mean that they necessarily know everything. Stardew Valley is simple to start playing, but it has a lot of secrets, and doesn't necessarily spell out how to do every single little thing while holding the player's hand. In this case, a player has offered an easier way to resolve fence decay in Stardew Valley.
Stardew Valley Fan Makes Surprise Discovery at Comics Shop
One Stardew Valley player shares a surprising discovery they made at a comics shop, delighting fellow online community members.
It makes logical sense that if a fence post breaks and decays, it needs to be removed in order to put down a replacement. While some players have been doing it this way, that's not actually necessary in the game. Stardew Valley player Weak-Ad2917 pointed out on Reddit that they were embarrassed to realize that it was possible to replace decayed fence posts by simply adding a new one. Players don't actually have to remove the old post. Instead, all they need to do is highlight the replacement piece of fence in their inventory and then set it down where the rotten one is. The rotten one will disappear, and be entirely replaced by the new one, without players needing to break it down with an axe, making replacing fences in Stardew Valley easier.
Stardew Valley Fans Regularly Share Time-Saving Tips
A number of fans in the comments have admitted that they also didn't know about this despite spending hundreds or more hours in the game. However, it's far from the first time that a discovery like this has made waves in the community. For example, fans were previously gobsmacked when they learned that players can transfer the contents of a storage chest in Stardew Valley by just setting down a larger chest exactly where the smaller one resides. This method can save players a ton of time, as they don't have to make space in their inventory, retrieve every single item, and then move it to the new chest manually.
Some other examples of this include players discovering that there's a way of easily transferring items in one's inventory to an existing stack of the item in a storage chest, making it way faster to organize one's loot, or that it's possible to cast a fishing line diagonally in Stardew Valley, allowing players to target bubbling areas where fish are plentiful. While some players express frustration at not knowing that these features have existed for so long, thankfully, the community continues to provide helpful advice and discoveries that can make a big difference for those who are still actively enjoying Stardew Valley.
