My trinket is attacking something in my farm?
Hello guys!

I have recently come back to the game to finish stuff from 1.6 onwards. One of the new things for me was the trinkets, which I really enjoy. My fave from the ones I've got so far is the Ice Rod (that shoots ice orbs to enemies and stuns them) and have it equipped at almost all times.

Now to the title of the post: I was running towards the top left corner of my farm (right next to where Grandpa's shrine is), where I have a few lightning rods, to collect battery packs, when my ice rod activated for some reason and started shooting towards a tree outside of my farm...? I don't really know why. I've filmed a little clip with the new Steam Recording feature, but I don't know how to share it here.

It is a mistery to me what it could be attacking, as it is outside my screen...
Has anyone noticed this?

For context, I'm on winter Year 12 and my farm is the standard one and I have not enabled monsters on my farm in any capacity and I do not use any mods, it is a vanilla file.

Editing to add the screenshots (thanks to NBOX21 for the information)

Here you can see the snake like creature in the far top left corner of the farm before being impacted by the ice orb:

And here you can see it being impacted, with the ice shards animation:

I found out I can embed Youtube videos here, so I uploaded the clip:

As you have ruled out the obvious, monsters on farm, it sounds like a glitch, any mods? day time/night time? I use the ice rod too, never happened to me and I have all the big mods like SDVE ridgeside village east scarp etc so no idea,
Very unlikely or you wouldve said, did u use a slime incubator on your farm? Could be targeting (but unlikely) things like rabbits crows owls etc, strange capsule may have spawned and may be attracting it?
Very strange,i would say all my suggestions shouldn't cause that but the only even possible causes i could think of.

I don't use mods at all. This happened at 1:20 pm but I've been testing and it happens during the night too. I do have a slime incubator, but it is really far from the top left corner and inside the slime hutch, and it's not shooting in that direction at all, so it can't be that. The only other thing that the ice rod has targeted on my farm are the ocasional truffle crabs, but those are not possible as it is Winter and pigs don't come out, and it's on the opposite direction and really far too. And in my experience, the ice rod has never targeted other critters like rabbits, birds or anything like that.
I've also tested the magic quiver, as it shoots far and does damage, but nothing happens with that trinket equipped. Frog does not react to it either; just the ice rod.
I've tried to watch more closely, and I can see the ice rod is hitting something on the tree (as it freezes and you can see the ice shards animation appearing and disappearing). I may be reaching, but it kind of looks like a snake? I'm still figuring out how to attach pictures in here; maybe I'll just upload them to my profile for reference.

Do you have Pigs? Cause there is a thing called "Truffle Crab" which will behave like a Rock Crab except it will have a Truffle instead, it's a rare spawn and can sometimes glitch into buildings but if you don't have anything that can spawn monsters on your farm that probably is the case.
when was the Farm started? 12 years sound like it was from a much older gamebuild. saves shoud be compatible but some mechanics dont take transition into newer gamebuilds well.

I have addressed truffle crabs in other comment - I do have pigs and ocasionally I do get truffle crabs (which the trinket reacts to), but it is currently Winter and pigs are not out. I have also gathered all truffles left behind, and the barns are located on the opposite side of the farm where the situation I am talking about is happening. So it can't be that.

The farm was started on year 2016 I think, it is my first save ever. I don't think it is a file issue though, as everything runs as intended, even all the 1.6 content so far. And upon inspection, after taking a screenshot of the farm, I can somewhat see there is a clear target on the tree: it's shaped like of a snake? The ice orb impacts it, and it is clear when it freezes. I have uploaded the screenshots on my profile, as it seens it is not possible to do it here.

If you want to share your screenshots in a forum discussion, simply go to your uploaded screenshot, copy the entire URL and paste it into your post. The URL should be replaced with the actual screenshot you linked once you hit post. :espresso:
2016 is old enove to encounter problems with the master scarecrow for example when you lost a collector one needed for it getable as museum rewad. that was one matter where i needed to start a new farm. older saves dont contained the info if you got the collector scarecrows and te game coud only look if you actual owned all. so when you lost one before that you never get the recipe for the master one.
and there are a few such things in the timline of the patches when it came to saves started before that patches. not glaring gamebreakers, but mechanic hindrances.

The game has undergone many big changes since 2016, so chances are it might indeed have to do with the age of the file. I took a look at your picture;

Not sure what I am looking at there but it does indeed look a bit snake-like, or maybe a very broken bat... Which farm map are you using on this save file?

Edit: After further inspection I am assuming standard. Thought it might have been something to do with the wilderness farm map but it doesn't quite match that layout.

It is a standard farm, yes. I would love for others with this layout to maybe test for themselves and see if they experience the same? And it is true you can see the creature on top of the tree. The ice rod is identifying it as an enemy, but it is unlike any enemy I've encountered on the game so far... It's a little mystery I'm trying to solve.

I wouldn't know about this, as I've completed the museum a long time before 1.6 update went live and got all my scarecrows. But if it was a bug, or an error due to the file being old, how would you explain the snake like creature...? I've now added the screenshots to the original post, someone kindly taught me how to. There is something clearly on top of the tree being targeted. It does not seem to be a normal critter like a bunny, squirrel, bird. And I haven't had the ice rod act up like this with something it should not react to, it's always worked as intended.

I cropped and zoomed in on whatever this is, it does not resemble anything I am aware of in the game at all, maybe get a no clip or out of bounds mod and go up and see for yourself,.

We should maybe think this through carefully before approaching the unknown entity. It might not be interested in company >.> But if you do plan to go ahead with this approach, bring your sword! In case it transforms into something horrible :brownchicken:

It is kinda creepy, isn't it? I had not considered the possibility of using mods to get up there for myself, I didn't know people could do that. My mod knowledge is really limited.
But the thing is: this creature can be stunned, but not damaged, as the Ice Rod works but the Magic Quiver does not react to it... I could maybe try to use the slingshot? But I want to find out what it is before trying to harm it.
