}}The '''Weather Contraption''' is the first project available on [[Aamy's Project Workbench]] and the first building the player constructs for their [[farm]]. The project becomes available on Day 3 when [[Aamy]] gives the player her [[quest]] ''[[The Weather Contraption]]''. Once completed, the Weather Contraption predicts the [[weather]] for the next day and can be upgraded to dispense [[Ball of Sun|Balls of Sun]] and [[Ether Crystal]]s.

==Obtaining==
The project is activated automatically after the player speaks with Aamy and costs 100{{coin}} and the following materials:<br />{{i|Wood|30}}{{i|Copper Bar|2}}{{i|Rope|5}}

After the player deposits the required materials to [[Aamy's Project Workbench]], Aamy will install the Weather Contraption overnight after the player falls asleep and will send the player the Weather Panel that can be placed on any back wall inside their [[house]] and will show the weather for the next day.

===Upgrades===
Once the Weather Contraption project is completed and paid in full, Aamy will add two upgrades for it to her workbench: the Solar Panel Wings that collect the energy of the sun and dispense a Ball of Sun every three sunny days and Ether Collector that condenses Ether from the air and dispense an Ether Crystal every seven days. Both items are not obtainable elsewhere and are used for [[crafting]] or [[building]] projects.

When both upgrades are completed, the player will get the project to upgrade their Weather Panel to significantly reduce the time it takes to produce Balls of Sun and Ether Crystals: to one sunny day and every three days respectively.

==Use==
[[File:Weather Panel.png|50px|left]]
The morning after the first Weather Contraption project is completed, Aamy will [[mail]] the player their Weather Panel that can be placed on any back wall inside their house. The panel will show the [[weather]] for the next day.

Once the player gets the Solar Panel Wings upgrade, the panel will dispense a [[Ball of Sun]] every three sunny days, and getting the Ether Collector will allow the panel to also dispense an [[Ether Crystal]] every seven days. When an item is ready, a red exclamation mark will appear, and the panel can be interacted with to pick the product up. The production speed of both Balls of Sun and Ether Crystals can be reduced by purchasing the Weather Panel Upgrade at Aamy's.

==Version history==
*{{v|2.1.00}}: Added the third upgrade to speed up the production of Balls of Sun and Ether Crystals.
