Stardew Valley Update 1.6 Improves Combat and Farming, Adds Faster-Growing Saplings
- Stardew Valley creator is fixing a longstanding combat issue where swinging a sword downward put players at a disadvantage
- The downward swing originally had a small area of effect to match the visuals, but the creator decided game feel is more important
- Players have complained about the downward swing radius for years and made mods to fix it
- Update 1.6 will also address the inefficient left-to-right harvesting pattern
- Saplings that grow faster will be awarded when chopping down trees in the 1.6 update, based on the fruit quality
