Hi! Chrome and Edge are refusing to let me download stating it has a virus. It doesn't give me the option to keep it like the other mods I've downloaded the last two days.
This is a common false positive in Windows Defender for Stardew Valley mods: https://stardewcommunitywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#SMAPI_files_disappear_or_antivirus_complains
I've scanned the files with MalwareBytes and VirusTotal and both report the files are clean.

Smapi informed me that this mod doesn't have an update key and might not notify if the mod can be updated, it also suggested reaching out to the mod author about it so I figured it was the right thing to do!
Same, I'm alerting all the mod authors whose mods are tagged with this warning...
[SMAPI] These mods have no update keys in their manifest. SMAPI may not notify you about updates for these [SMAPI] mods. Consider notifying the mod authors about this problem.
And does that mean this mod can break at any SMAPI update?
It means SMAPI wont be able to tell you when an update is available because it can't check. Whether or not it will break in the next update of SMAPI is a different story, and SMAPI has been putting that in the log too. Its in yellow on mine

I've confirmed that this mod still works with 1.6. If there are any compatibility issues, please let me know.
I've also finally added the update key for SMAPI.
Happy farming!
