Mod Configuration

Flower Dance Fix has several configuration settings. These can be changed by altering the data in the Config.json file in the mod folder, or in game if Generic Mod Config Menu is installed.

NPCs Have Random Partners

• If false (default): NPCs pairs are generated using a "Love Interest" pairing. NPCs will be paired up using the "Love Interest" value in their NPC disposition. NPCs will only be paired up using this method if they are mutual love interests (ie. both NPCs have each-other as a love interest value). Any NPCs without a valid, mutual love interest will be paired with the opposite sex at random.
• If true: NPCs are paired with the opposite sex at random.

Allow Tourist Dancers

• If false (default): NPCs that do not live in the valley will be excluded from the dancer pools. This is calculated using the NPC's "homeRegion" value.
• If true: Valid NPCs living anywhere are eligible to participate in the dance.

Use Custom FDF Sprites (WIP)

• If false (default): NPCs will use their standard flower dance sprites found on their character sprite sheet- female dancers will use frames 40-47, and male dancers will use frames 44-47.
• If true: NPCs will use custom flower dance sprite provided by FDF- dancers in the female line will use frames 0-7, and dancers in the male line will use frames 8-11.

For more information, see Custom FDF Sprites.

Allow Mixed-Gendered Dance Lines (WIP)

• If false (default): NPCs will dance in the line corresponding to their gender- female dancers will dance in the top line, and male dancers will dance in the bottom line. If non-binary dancers are valid (such that Allow Non-Binary Dancers = true, and FDF sprites exist for them), they will be assigned a dancer line at random.
• If true:

For more information, see Custom FDF Sprites.

Allow Non-Binary Dancers (WIP)

• If false (default): Non-binary NPCs will not be eligible for selection for a dancer line.
• If true:

For more information, see Custom FDF Sprites.

Maximum Dance Pairs (WIP)

The maximum number of dancer that can be seen dancing.

NPC Blacklist

A list of NPCs to be excluded from selection for a dancer line. To configure the blacklist, add the desired NPCs to the string, separated by a single forward slash "/", like so: "Maru/Shane/Emily"

Use Custom FDF Crowd Animations (WIP)

• If false (default): "Spectator" NPCs will stand still and watch the flower dance in the coordinates specified by the map data.
• If true: "Spectator" NPCs with custom FDF sprites (frames 12+) and event data describing their animations will perform animations while they watch the dance. This may shuffle NPCs around the event.

For more information, see Custom Crowd Animations.

Suggest Configurations for Certain Mods

Some mods have NPCs that may be datable, but should not be present in at the flower dance until a specific time during their plot. It is highly suggested that you add the following NPCs to your FDF NPC Blacklist until the point at which it would make sense for them to dance:

• Abandoned Bride [Nexus] by SYS - Add "Aurelia" to the NPC Blacklist until she is properly introduced
• Lunna- Astray in Stardew Valley [Nexus] by Rafseazz - Add "Raphael" and "Bianka" to the NPC Blacklist until they are properly introduced

In an upcoming version of FDF, it will become possible for NPCs to be pre-configured to be excluded from selection until certain conditions are met.
