This is a continuation of the Farm Expansion mod.  The mod has been changed from a single Farm location to a framework that allows multiple
new lands be added via Content Packs.  To try and be as compatible as possible the entrance to the farm expansions has been moved from the
Farm to the Backwoods.  The mod currently supports up to 10 additional farm lands. (The power of you PC may reduce the playable number)  

Content Packs can specify conditions and a gold value that are required to purchase the land.  Once a piece of land has met its requirements, it
will be placed for sale.  Stardew Realty places a sign board in Pelican Town from which the Player can view and purchase any land currently for
sale.  The morning after the Player purchased a piece of land they will receive a mail confirming their purchase.

The For Sale sign is only visible when there is land for sale.

To help getting around the farm expansions a Farm Expansion Warp Network is provided ([CTRL][Z] to access)(Configurable).  Expansion maps that are configured for the Warp Network will have an entrance to the Warp Network to allow you to move from expansion to expansion and home quickly.


Custom Buildings
To support such large farms I have also added 3 custom buildings, a Greenhouse, a Fromagerie and a Winery.

Fromagerie
The cheese factory building comes with 3 large vats that accept 50 milk products at a time for large scale cheese making.

Winery
The winery can be used for kegs or casks.  Works very well with PFM - Expanded Casks if you want to have a high volume winery.

Greenhouse\Large Greenhouse
A custom Greenhouse available in 2 sizes.  They perform the same way as the Greenhouse on the base Farm.


Game Mechanic Enhancements
To help with farming such large plots of land, I have added enhancements to the Junimos and crop growing season.

Junimos
To fill the gap of none of the popular Junimo mods working on farm expansions I added some basic enhancements to the expansion Junimos:

• Working in the Rain - Junimos will harvest crops in the rain (for a fee)(Configurable in GMCM menu)
• Re-Seed - Junimos will replace what they harvest with the same seed (Seeds are sold by the Junimos at a 25% discount)
• Winter Work - Junimos will harvest crops in the winter (for a fee)(Configurable in GMCM menu)
• Night Work - I think Junimos deserve time off, so night work is not an option
• Working Radius - the distance Junimos will search for crops is configurable
• Maximum # of Junimos - the maximum number of Junimos per hut is configurable

Crop Season
To provide extra time for harvesting a grace period can be specified, by season, to allow you time to get the end of season crops in

• Configurable in GMCM menu

Auto Grabbers
I added some basic deluxe auto grabbing capabilities in the farm expansions:

• Grab Flowers - auto grabbers will harvest flowers
• Grab Fruits - auto grabber will harvest fruits
• Global Grabber - grabs all foragable items worldwide, including farm expansions
• Radius - configurable operating radius

General Compatibility

Building and Animal Mods
The Carpenter and Animal Purchase menus for expansions has now been moved to their own menus in the Warp Room.  Mods that change the Builder or Animal purchase menus will work and their assets will be available for use in the base Farm. 

Multiplayer
The mod is not currently multiplayer compatible.  I have tried to make multiplayer work, but at this time it is not possible.


Specific Mod Compatibility

• BFAV - works correctly and you can spawn BFAV animals on any Farm Expansion,
however, items spawned that appear outside of the animal's home may appear on the standard Farm (Rex Eggs or Truffles).
• Shop Tile Framework - no issues
• Farm Tractor Mod - no issues
• Automate - no issues
• Pond Paint - no issues
• Stardew Valley Expanded - no issues
• Modest Farm Map - no issues
• Double Standard Farm - no issues
• Better Junimos - is not compatible
• East Scarp - no issues
• Ridgeside Village - no issues

Current Expansions

• Classic Farm Expansion - the original expansion farm from the old mod FarmExpansion
• Ali's Mountain Farm
• Ali's Foraging Farm
• Mega Farm - an insanely large open plot of land
• Mega Farm II - my own expansion, crazy large, for the serious farmer
• Hedge Maze I - the entire expansion is a giant hedge maze.  There is no farming land, just a fun maze.

Languages
I have implemented SMAPIs multilingual support. Currently I only have the text for English, any translations are gladly welcome.


Known Issues
There are still a couple of issues with the mod, but they are not game changers..

•  NPC Map Locations overwrites the world map causing Farm Expansion to not show on the Map.
• BFAV Animal Rex Gold spawns golden eggs in the base Farm, not it home expansion

F.A.Q.s

1. Why is there no For Sale sign in the Town?
   1. There is no land currently for sale.  The sign is only visible when expansions are available.
   2. You have not installed any expansion content packs.  There are no expansions included with this download.  You need to download at least 1 of the expansion packs in order for the For Sale sign to be shown.
   3. To see what the packs you have installed, in the SMAPI console window enter 'fe_packs'[enter].  This will list all of the installed expansion content packs and what their current status are.
   4. You can also enter the command 'fe_forsale'[enter].  This will list the lands currently for sale.
2. My game seems 'choppy' as I've expanded.
   1. The choppiness will most likely occur when the game does it's 10 game minute update.  During this time the game cycles through every object on every map.  The more expansions, the more objects, the longer it takes to process the 10 minute update.
   2. If you have 'Real Time Fees' enabled for Junimos this may also cause choppiness.  Turning off this option may gain you some performance.

Farm Expansion Customization
Using my other mod Stardew Web you can customize various parameters about the farm expansion:

• Foraging - what type of items can be found foraging
• Artifacts - what items can be found as artifacts
• Fish - you can stock your expansion ponds with whatever type of fish you want
• Season - an expansion can be locked to one season.  Add 4 expansions and you
can have 4 seasons all year round.  The seasonal override does not change the weather in an expansion, so lookout for snow in the summer. (The snow does not impact your crops, it just looks strange)

For Modders
What is required to make a content pack?

• a TMX file of your farm expansion map (the map needs to have an exit from all 4 sides)
• a couple of png snapshots of you map (for thumbnails)
• an expansion.json file with the details of your map

For more specifics on creating an expansion, see my Wiki


Future for this Mod:
In order to create this mod a lot of patching to the game was required, making it very tricky to try and maintain any type of compatibility.  There is a new version of Stardew in the works, version 1.6.  This is a release to make things more mod-able, thank you Stardew Devs!!!!.  I have been participating in the Alpha releases and they are making this mod MORE compatible.  With each alpha release I am able to remove a patch here and a patch there.  The custom buildings are currently hammered into the game with magic patches and gum.  In the new version custom buildings are supported.  I have already ported the custom buildings to the new format and was able to remove the patches and gum currently required.  If things keep going the way they are with the alpha, this mod should be able to remove most all of its patching and just be the framework required to map in the expansion grid, making comparability a breeze.
