[p]Hi everybody! Oak here with a quick update![/p][p][/p][p]We're closing in on getting the last bigger sources of frustrations ironed out for you. This time our star coder Quiji reworked Maelrath's Heaven's Model quest to lose all the wiring hassle and focus on the actual planetary puzzle part. Hopefully you will enjoy the new logic for it more! ^_^[/p][p][/p][p]And of course, due to popular demand we also added respawning of scavengeable items! Every day, 1-2 items will spawn in all of the areas once they are unlocked so you can go in every day if you'd like or wait a couple days for them to stack up. We will monitor your feedback to see if we need to adjust the amount of stuff spawning, but for now it seems already a lot more rewarding to go scavenging to me[/p][p][/p][p]Here's the full (very short) changelog:[/p]

• [p] Items in scavenging areas now respawn a little bit every day
  [/p]
• [p] Maelrath's Heaven's Model quest is now totally reworked for better stability and less frustration
  [/p]

[p][/p][p]We still need to figure out how to make Umbracine's quest more "bulletproof", and once that's done we will start to prototype an endless mode for the game, which will most likely take quite a bit of time (wish us luck!)[/p][p][/p][p]Thank you for your support and your feedback! Let us know if there's anything else we should adjust![/p]

Hi everyone!

Some smol, yet significant fixes arriving for y'all today!

• Simplified Umbracine's pendant quest and made the wires easier to handle
  
• Added saving/loading for notes in Notepad
  
• Fixed a crash when starting a new game and loading a game while the new game is loading in
  

We are going to be improving and streamlining the blueprint experience even more in the coming days according to your feedback! We will try to make any interactions with the blueprints system as automatic as possible, since having the "checkmark" to confirm the blueprint is still causing widespread confusion. Hopefully will have an update about that soon for you, but meanwhile I hope this patch will make your crafting lives a bit easier!

Hi all! Hopefully now we have fixed the crashes that happen after character creation for real this time. Fingers crossed. If you still get this, please let me know here or on our Discord!

• Fixed crash at the end of Character Creation (hopefully this time for realsies)
  
• Fixed some savegames that had invalid item data in them causing crashes when loading
  

All the best,
-Oak @ Placeholder Gameworks

[p]Hi everyone!

We've been hard at work listening and reacting to your feedback, and we hope that this patch will alleviate most of the frustrations with the blueprint system and the savegame system.

Let us know what you think!

[/p]

• [p] Reworked Blueprint system - unified functionality under 1 button, progress bar shows you how much you still need to fill, click n' hold to confirm blueprint
  [/p]
• [p] Reworked Savegame system - savegames now save the state of the game at any time, except for starting and ending dialogue (incl. the part where you have to put the Moneybag into the Cash Register) where it reverts back to the state immediately before those dialogues
  [/p]
• [p] Reworked clicking on and dragging objects to be more snappy, responsive, and reliable - pulling Blueprints from the Almanac now should always work
  [/p]
• [p] Reworked Cash Register crank and the Bellows lever to be more responsive and snappy
  [/p]
• [p] Rotating an item will not trigger a glue check anymore
  [/p]
• [p] Fixed issues on resolutions below 1080p with fonts not displaying correctly
  [/p]
• [p] Meowl purring can now be toggled on and off by left-clicking on Meowl
  [/p]
• [p] Made wires easier to grab by making their collision area slightly larger
  [/p]

Known issues:

Blueprints, especially ones with wires, still have some problems with saving/loading which will be improved upon soon.[/p][p][/p][p]Thank you all for your love and support! [/p]
