Happy Today-Should-Have-Been-Release Day!
To celebrate, we’re pushing an update to the Steam Demo!There are a TON of fixes to this demo version, and you can check out the full change list here
[h2]Some Highlights:[/h2]
- You can no longer destroy the tea house, vehicle shed or bicycle stand.
- Fixed a problem with the messenger font on Simplified Chinese.
- You can now pick up smaller animals you own, such as chickens, ducks and rabbits.
- An update to wild animals, Raccoons now spawn properly and dig up your crops that are left in the open!
- Cooking XP is now given to the player properly after cooking food or discovering new recipes.
- All build items now have pre-rendered icons. This should massively improve the stability of both Philip's shop and player's buildmode.
- Complete rework of how inventory items are loaded into the memory. This should improve the stability of the game and prevent inventory item related crashes..
- All text messages now save properly overnight.
- Loading a save from the in-game phone now works correctly.
- Can no longer summon the bicycle outside of SunnySide.
- PoptoBismuth now cures nausea.
- Campgrounds have been polished and are ready for visitors
- Gabe's Ranch has been deforested and his animals now enjoy open pastures.
- Designated forest signs now spawn correctly. And are now visible on the map app and minimap.
- Save slot system is now implemented. This is the final release version of how we'll be handling saving in SunnySide. You now have 5 slots to create new games in, this allows us to enable steam cloud as well as keep parallel to console versions.
- As this is a whole new way of saving, please remove the SunnySide folder from your Documents>RainyGames directory.
- This new system will most likely bring with it new edge cases, please be patient while we QA these.
- Eye color now persists between saves and character creator and the game.
- Digging prompt now displays what size is being dug.
- You will now always wake up near where you slept last.
- Gamepad camera control is now twice as sensitive.
- Complete rework on vehicle inventories, they now save reliably.
- Building is now blocked if the player is colliding with the object and will produce the relevant error.
- Fixed a pretty big issue with the sky, where the sun angle based on season was not being refreshed at the start of a day. This system now works properly as it was intended. Summer days are now actually long while winter days are much shorter.
- Racoons no longer have access to the Mage Hand cantrip and can no longer steal trees.
- A massive amount of optimisation in Higashi.
- Large optimisation in Farmer's Market.
- Changes to flow of Intro Story and dialogue.
- First release implementation of "Return to Last Sleeping Spot". This will replace the dev Home button return system and is release ready.
- All hangouts now skip time by 2 hours at the end.
As this is a whole new way of saving, please remove the SunnySide folder from your Documents > RainyGames directory.
