Better Friendship

Ditch the menus! See real-time gift suggestions based on the items in your inventory!

Are you tired of constantly having to dig through multiple wiki pages or mod menus every time you want to give a villager a gift? Wouldn't it be easier if there was just a visual indicator of who can receive a gift and who you can talk to? You deserve Better Friendship!

Update 1. 1. 3 (2024/11/12): This adds a compatability fix for SMAPI 4. 1. 0 that was created by MaximillianRW.

      If you like this mod, consider checking out my other mod, Better Ranching (>30k endorsements)! I took a similar approach to try to remove some of the pain points from the ranching experience while still sticking to the spirit of the game.
