The Wandering Village News

Patchnotes v1.0.4

Bugfixes
  • Fixed exception when Scavenging Trading Display was closed with right-click and then opened again
  • Fixed scavenging buildings dumping their rewards in the middle of the village instead of storing them

Patchnotes v1.0.3

Improvements
  • Forcibly show a quest’s side panel when a new transmission is incoming, even if that quest is unpinned
  • Proper world-map visuals for some story-related locations
  • Korean localization improvements
  • Fixed unlocalized side-objective in a certain main story quest
  • Don’t show survey prompt when closing the game
Bugfixes
  • Fixed a rare case where the “Someone wants to talk to you” prompt for side quests would not properly work, and stick around forever after showing the initial dialogue
  • Fixed Onbu not stopping in final story location if a "Lie Down" command was issued just before issuing the "Go Home" command
  • Fixed an issue where a scavenging decision would not trigger when being clicked, if the same scavenging team previously visited a sidequest location and the “Someone wants to talk to you” prompt was not yet accepted
  • Fixed last active tutorial not getting cleared upon completion. Most often, this affected the “Internal Parasites” tutorial
Balancing
  • increase carry capacity of Onbu Doctor for Onbu Notes from 5 -> 20. This means the Enlightenment mission can be prepared much quicker, making it more useful and easy to time

1 Week since Launch - Thank You & Development Update

Dear Onbu Rider

It feels like we have only blinked once since The Wandering Village launched into 1.0, but it’s already been a week!

Thank you all very much for helping to make the launch a success 🎆
We are trying hard to read through all of your feedback and have started working on several quality of life improvements for the 1.1 update, such as:

Worker Management Overlay which allows you to quickly move workers and enable/disable buildings.



Hauling Post which allows you to employ workers as Haulers and Sweepers with extra movement speed and carrying capacity.



Research Search Bar



And much more 😀
