The Farmer Was ReplacedArchipelago randomizer mod

Compatibility notes

• The evaluated pair is prerelease v0.0.9-beta: the APWorld and native plugin both declare 0.0.9. Use both files from that exact release. The APWorld declares Archipelago 0.6.7 as its minimum; the setup guide uses BepInEx 5.x Win x64, including under Proton. Locate the game through Steam’s Browse Local Files rather than the guide’s Windows path example. Game compatibility has not been independently tested.
• Default data contains 110 checks but create_items builds a pool of 114 regular rewards without reducing it. This static mismatch needs resolution before relying on the default configuration. Grass Sanity adds 1024 farm-square checks; its presence changes capacity but is not a verified repair for the release.
• Crop costs are randomized in World logic even when their option is disabled, while the mod keeps vanilla costs in that case. Custom harvest thresholds change the mod’s milestones without adapting the World’s logic. Keep original thresholds for a simpler reviewable configuration; the underlying cost discrepancy remains.
• Goals are Gold Farmer or Size Matters, with harvest milestones, achievements and optional grass checks. Technology rewards unlock farming capabilities. Free Hay adds 20% of current hay, rounded down; the release note says 25%. The World and mod disagree on the Rick Roll trap name, so its advertised effect is not consistently wired. Trap percentage can be set to zero.
• Back up each game save together with its tfwrap.json sidecar and keep it with its original room and slot. The receipt counter advances before reward application succeeds; save writes, milestone reset across saves and replay of unique offline checks lack complete safeguards. Victory is not retained for later transmission after a failed send.
• Connection settings persist the room password in ordinary configuration. Keep those files private and use an explicit wss:// address for secure remote transport: a bare hostname can fall back to an unencrypted connection.
• The downloaded ZIP includes game-managed Core.dll and Utils.dll alongside mod dependencies. Source MIT licences exist, but package notices and a redistribution basis for those game assemblies were not established in the reviewed materials. This identifies missing evidence, not a finding of unlawful intent. No downloaded archive is hosted by Panludia.
