- Animated images of what was destroyed at each tile
- Arrows on the edge of the screen point to any damage that is off screen

FAQ:
Does this stop the damage?
- No.
Is this compatible with multiplayer?
- Yes it is based on my own testing. I have not tested it with split screen so you may run into issues in that case, though.
Is this compatible with other mods?
- Yes. I have tested it with modded machines, crops, paths, locations, and recolors and this mod works as expected. Please let me know if you have trouble with it.
The damage report went away too quickly for me to see it!
- If you want to see it again, you can restart the day. Alternatively you can type "wtswa report" (without the quotation marks) into the SMAPI console and hit enter and it will print today's report in the console as well as map coordinates for each location (the HUD message only displays at the start of a day).
How to report a problem or a bug:
Type "wtswa data" (without the quotation marks) into your SMAPI console and hit enter (do this for every player, if multiplayer). Upload your log to https://smapi.io/log/ using the instructions on that website and share the link that it provides along with any details that you think are relevant.

Thank you to the folks on the Stardew Valley Discord server whose input inspired some of the direction for this mod or otherwise helped me make progress on it: chue (particularly for the early ideas about the overlay), Button (particularly for the early ideas about adapting the Tracker profession's arrows), BarleyZP, 6480, atravita, and various others.
