i lost my watering can!

[oliveoil]

what can i do? i've scoured all chests and its been multiple *game* days

Well... baring a bad interaction with a mod ...

If your watering can is destroyed, a new one (a basic one from what I understand) will be mailed to you the following day.

There are apparently Lost-&-Found boxes in the Mayor's house and in the Adventurer's Guild now, so check both those spots.

If all of those fail, then it's in a chest SOMEwhere.

Ive noticed you can sometimes accidentally put things in the barn or coop where u get the eggs or milk from, didnt put it in there by chance have you? If you died or passed out especially during a dungeon crawl, maybe someone stole it and the adventure guild has a option of recovering it?

i've checked those too, and i think i've checked the adventurers guild but i'll check again

i'm starting to worry about a mod :( but its so random. i have a mod that connects all my chests etc so i can go through them all easily. i'll check the adventurers guild again i guess

Probably not relevant if you are worried about using mods, but you know you could just spawn a new working watering can with the item spawner mod?

You wouldn't even need to get the original and upgrade it - you could go straight to iridium.
once installed/working on your save file. When you are in game doesn't matter where in game for example you could be in your farmhouse after waking up - press "i" to bring up the spawner menu click in the search bar near top right and type in what you want to spawn, then click on that item/tools icon, hey presto new watering can - just make sure you have room in your bag/inventory first - you may have to manually place it there.

It works on both SDV 1.5+ and SVE latest update and is compatible with most other mods.

if you are still struggling, have you checked the trouble shooting/mod compatibility guides on the community wiki? They are really useful for issues like this.

Also, check smapi and nexus sites for updates, patches & general mod fixes.

If they don't work, i'd suggest delete your game save, and start again from scratch, clear your mods and re-download/extract them to your mods folder before starting a new save - a pain but worth it if it's been corrupted beyond repair.

thanks for the advice! i'm getting to the point of having a friend join for a second so i can take her tools and downloading the item spawner

Ok, cool, glad to be of help.

Just make sure when downloading Item spawner / other useful mod/s (I suggest using nexus - there are links on the community site) you check for any other "required mods" to ensure the one you want to use actually works. I had trouble when I first started using mods because i skipped a "Core mod".

You cannot really go wrong if you have the following:
Smapi
Content Patcher
Content Patcher Animations
Mod Updater
JsonAssets
Space Core
PyTK
TMX Loader
Image Ed
and any relevant framework mods downloaded and extracted to your mods folder as a foundation for any other mods you may want.
