Hello everyone,

This is my first mod that I had created in order to get familiar with creating SMAPI mods for Stardew and eventually create more complex mods. 

Credits come from this thread http://community.playstarbound.com/threads/calling-horse-with-key-press.111550/ where I drew initial inspiration. The behavior of the mod is similar to the one found in the link however that mod does not have official support anymore and is not open source so I created one completely separate from the original mod. I have also made the improvement of a whistle audio cue being added to the action without the need for overwriting the games built in audio files.

You can remap the whistle key from the default 'V' to whichever key you desire in the config JSON file. I had created this mod for someone I know that plays Stardew Valley so there is also another feature I added that maps to the 'G' key allowing the toggle of a visible grid overlays. It is a separate implementation of the one found in the game's debug mode meaning debug mode does not need to be enabled to use this feature.

I am open to any suggestions for improvement of this mod. I am also open to any requests for new mod concepts/ideas if there is a want for a new mod.

Tested with Windows version of the game and works using the latest version of the game and SMAPI. I will test with Linux and Mac at a later time and compatibility is not guaranteed.
