Harvest Moon GB Info

In late 2017, G_Heinz & I were able to get the Credits / Ranch Master in both the GB & GBC version of this games.

It is done by getting the Farm Expansion, and all thee of the Special Tools. The Fishing Rod, Pickax, and Umbrella.

The reason runs took so long to be done was because we didn't have the requirements for each of the tools, but we found those recently, so we won't be guessing in our runs.

Requirements:
Farm Expansion
-1,500 Total Shipped Items*

Fishing Rod
-1,500 Total Shipped Items*
-2 Cows
-2 Chickens
-800 Squares Tilled
-3 Power Berries**

Pickax
-5,000 Total Shipped Items*
-4 Cows
-4 Chickens
-1,600 Tilled Squares
-5 Power Berries**

Umbrella
-5,000 Total Shipped Items
-4 Cows
-4 Chickens
-1,600 Tilled Squares
-Ultra Deluxe Wood House (Final Upgrade)
-6 Power Berries**

Ranch Master / Credits
-5,000 Total Shipped Items
-4 Cows
-4 Chickens
-1,600 Tilled Squares
-250 Happiness***
-Ultra Deluxe Wood House
-65,536 G
-6 Power Berries**

*The original GB version keeps track of both Yearly, and Total shipment count in the memory, but only displays the amount you've shipped that year at each Evaluation.
The GBC version keeps track of both Yearly, and Total shipments, but displays the Total Amount Shipped at each Evaluation.
All the tools' requirements in both of the versions are from the Total Amount Shipped.

**I tested all these Reqs. on files that had Power Berries, but there are 7 Berries on the Farm, all in the same spot each file. I'll get around to testing the Reqs. without berries, but tilling 1,600 squares takes too long. And with having to till 1,600 spots anyway, getting those 6 Berries would save time in the end whether you need them or not, because that will give you more stamina to till with.

***Happiness is a tricky thing. There's a handful of ways to get it; Buying a cow gives you +20, seeing a bird outside your house gives you +1, having an animal run by the screen while you're idle is +1, getting a Good Fortune at the Church is +10 (But you could get -10, it's RNG as of now). And the various events that occur on your farm give you different amounts. In the end, you'll be roughly 60 happiness short of 250. But recently, we found a way to guarantee a bird outside your house, so that won't be a problem.
By holding your dog, leaving the house, buffering A, B, Start & Select while the screen fades out, then a bird will always appear when you reload the file & leave the house. You have to set the Dog's last known position to somewhere not out of bounds, or he'll be stuck, and you have to rely on Church RNG.

Seed Glitch:
If you soft reset (A, B, Start & Select) while using your last bag of seeds, then it will underflow and give you 255 of the bag you used. It doesn't have to be the last of all types of seeds, just the type you're doing the glitch on.
