📋 About This Mod
Object Progress Bars
Shows progress bars on refining or artisan goods machines. Use keyboard key 'P' to toggle progress bars (configurable).
REQUIREMENTS:
• Stardew Valley 1. 3. 3 or later
• SMAPI 2. 10 or later
INSTALLATION:
• Unzip the mod folder into Stardew Valley/Mods
FEATURES:
• Shows accurate progress bars that can be toggled on/off with a shortcut key.
• Calculates progress based on the time left until processing will be complete and total time a machine takes for completion, according to the wiki.
• Guesses progress for the few machines (Worm Bin, Oil Maker, Cask(?)) that don't have a determinable total time.
• Progress bars resemble original game UI.
CAVEATS:
• Worm Bin and Oil Maker progress might look inconsistent every time game is loaded since the total time is being guessed. However they do sort of provide a correct estimation of time left on processing.
• Cask wasn't tested since I don't have a cellar. It's behavior might be weird.
• Mod was only tested on Linux.
CREDITS:
♦ spacechase0's Object Time Left 1. 0. 1 was used as a starting point.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust with 2,225 endorsements and 76k downloads.
- Solves the 'when is it done?' problem for kegs and furnaces.
- Lightweight UI mod that doesn't touch gameplay balance.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021 — might break with Stardew Valley 1.6.
- Only covers machines, not crops or other timed events.
For Stardew Valley farmers who hate guessing when their kegs or furnaces are done. Perfect for min-maxers and casual players who want a cleaner UI. Skip if you play vanilla without mods or prefer a more immersive HUD.
💡 Beginner Tips
