Giant Stump on older save?
Hello everyone,

I've resumed an older save recently to check out the new content as I don't have the time to start a new farm. I've been able to do most things but the event that turns the tree into a giant stump and starts the associated quest just won't trigger. I've played for one and a half seasons now on the old save and no luck. I've had other (supposedly rarer) night events trigger a couple times and other new content (like the mystery boxes), etc.

Can anyone confirm that they've been able to start this questline on a save that was already older than year 2 in game and had the green house finished before resuming in 1.6?

Thanks.

I got the new questline on a save that I haven't been playing for 3 years.

It did take something like 1½ - 2 weeks for it to fire though.

When I started playing again, I was on year 5. Not sure how early the quest can fire.

Btw: the achievement will fire after the racoons have the 7th kit but they keep asking for more stuff after that. I think the maximum number of kits they can have is 9 or 10.

Thank you. Then I'll just have to be patient. It's been 6 weeks for me already. Just wanted to know if I just had to be more patient or should give up.

I'm not convinced the Greenhouse is the only spawn condition on this one. I think there's something else we haven't figured out yet.

Apparently asking about it helped, it finally spawned on the next night.
So I can also confirm that it will trigger on older saves.

If it helps anyone in figuring things out, I'm in fall of year 3, the save was originally on the last day of spring year 3. Previously to 1.6 releasing I had achieved "Perfection" but haven't gotten back to 100% yet.
