Creator Eric Barone shared a wee little insight into the update on Twitter today, and it&apos;s got players awfully excited about their fruit trees.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Started working on the patch notes for 1.6, thought I would share one random line about changes to fruit trees,&#8221; Barone <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ConcernedApe\/status\/1767242935018684805\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tweeted<\/a>. That change is as follows:<\/p>\n<p><em>Cutting down a fruit tree now yields the appropriate fruit sapling. If the tree is mature (ie the fruit quality is > basic), it will yield a sapling with the same quality as its fruit. The higher the quality, the faster the sapling will mature when replanted.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It seems like a fairly granular change to me, but the response to the tweet suggests otherwise. There&apos;s a lot of excitement, and more than a few questions, which Barone gamely addressed in replies.<\/p>\n<p>For one thing, the change isn&apos;t meant to provide any boost over and above what players have now\u2014it&apos;s really about preservation. &#8220;It&apos;s only intended to help people move their trees, not provide any economic benefit,&#8221; Barone said in <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ConcernedApe\/status\/1767271912189862073\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">response to one inquiry<\/a>. &#8220;The best money maker would be to plant your tree and never touch it again. This just makes it less of a tragedy if there comes a time that you have to move a tree.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The &apos;maturity&apos; thing is there so that it&apos;s less distressing to move an old, established tree, because it will grow back faster,&#8221; he said in another <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ConcernedApe\/status\/1767244613990105218\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reply<\/a>. New trees that have to be moved will also drop saplings, but without the benefit of the &#8220;maturity&#8221; bonus.<\/p>\n<p>He also noted that the bonus will not impact the quality of the fruit these trees produce: A sapling from a mature tree will <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ConcernedApe\/status\/1767243493775454493\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">grow faster<\/a> but still has to go through the same stages in order to start producing the same quality of fruit as its progenitor.<\/p>\n<p>Even with that clarity, the change strikes me as relatively minor, but people who actually play Stardew Valley seem to feel very differently.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ghoulishrimp\/status\/1767272542522224842\"
