V1.3.83.13 Bug Fixes!

Greetings inmates!

Thank you for your support and feedback for previous patch! For today's update, we've conducted a new round of fixes and optimizations to improve your gaming experience.

[h2]Bug Fixes and Optimizations[/h2]
  • Fixed an issue where entering the prisoner warehouse via a shortcut could prevent obtaining the mailroom permit.
  • Fixed the incomplete display issue of the administration building map.
  • Fixed the dim display issue of the clothes cart in the top right of the laundry room.
  • Fixed the issue where the water valve might change from fully open to half-open when returning to the sewers from the central garden.
  • Fixed the incorrect display of the remaining time for cold beer in the guard activity room fridge.
  • Fixed the issue where searching the guard activity room fridge did not consume energy and time.
  • Fixed the issue where after draining the sewer, if the cleaning room cabinet in the guard room blocked the drain, entering directly from the pipeline area might cause animation clipping: now it will jump to Guard Activity Room 2L.
  • Fixed the issue where the actual deducted time did not match the deducted computer usage time when playing games on the computer in the administration building with the Golden Watch effect.
  • Fixed the issue where the first trigger of the Sun Escape Route plot could be skipped.
  • Fixed the issue where you could still request Selina's help for escape after Iris's visit.
  • Fixed the issue where placing the wooden bridge in the sewer could still be executed with insufficient energy.
  • Fixed the issue where Lester and the boy would feel sleepy even without giving them sleeping pills.
  • Modified the trigger conditions for the "CD Operation" task: it cannot be triggered during non-working hours.
  • If you have learned about the skills of the Master Chef and Selina during the plot performance, this action record will be retained in subsequent playthroughs even if the plot is skipped.
