[h2]🛠 Patch Notes:[/h2]

• Fixed a bug that caused employees not to appear at their workstations during working hours.
  
• Fixed a bug that caused vehicles to become non-interactive after an employee finished their work.
  
• Fixed a bug that allowed pushing a vehicle out of the zone during an employee’s work.
  
• Fixed an issue where the player could get stuck in the shed at the junkyard when trying to sell a vehicle.
  
• Improved the junkyard’s appearance from a distance - missing visual elements have been added.
  
• Fixed a bug that caused vehicles to levitate after loading the game. The fix may not apply retroactively, if a vehicle was levitating at the time of saving, it will continue to levitate until it is moved.
• Fixed a bug where items from the repair machine would disappear if the player had only one machine.
  
• Fixed a bug where the machine state duplicated, causing the player to lose items.

[h2]Hi Car Dealers![/h2]
[h3]The Junkyard Update has just rolled out on Steam! 🔧🏚️[/h3]

From now on, the junkyard is not just a place to buy used parts, but also... an opportunity to make a profit!

🟩 New junkyard features:

• Selling defective vehicles - if a car is missing important mechanical parts, you can sell it without losing reputation, though at a lower price.
  
• Buying heavily damaged cars - up to 3 per day, in terrible technical and visual condition. More work, but also bigger profit!
  

Dear Players,
When removing rust from wrecks, at the moment the task autofill appears, the remaining rust automatically turns into paint. This doesn’t affect the final repair outcome - the vehicle looks as if it was properly restored - but it might leave a slight feeling that the rust wasn’t completely cleaned off.

In this situation, you can continue with the next repair steps and complete the vehicle, or if you prefer, manually remove the replaced paint layer before applying the filler.

We didn’t want to delay the release, so the update is available now. Early next week, we’ll return to working on this issue and additionally prepare more surprises related to wrecks.

Thank you for your understanding and support!

Jump into the junkyard and take advantage of the new possibilities!

[h3]🔧 We’ve also fixed a few things:[/h3]

• Fixed an issue with the rust removal quest after unlocking the second level of the bodywork workshop.
  
• Improved the display of the player's bank account balance in the banking app.
  
• Unified the names of tools on the workbench with those used in tasks and the radial menu.
  
• Fixed a bug where the radial menu wouldn't open after loading the game in the car wash area.
  
• Fixed an issue where vehicles droped from towdolly into zone stood crooked or couldn't be driven.
  
• Adjusted the position of screws on the wheel in repair mode.
  
• Fixed a bug where switching tabs in the email app triggered multiple clicking sounds.
  
• Fixed an issue with the Phantom Thunder model where the front license plates couldn’t be interacted with.

Today we’re sharing a new fix and revealing more upcoming features for the Junkyard!

[h3]🛠️ Patch Notes (Hotfix #35):[/h3]

• We’ve rewritten how game saving works. The game should no longer freeze during autosaves! If you previously turned off autosave in the settings, feel free to turn it back on - the game should now run smoothly even when saving automatically.

[h3]📢 The major Junkyard Update is scheduled for tomorrow, so stay tuned![/h3]



In Tuesday’s devlog, we summarized the current features of the Junkyard and teased what you’ll soon be able to sell there. Today, we’re ready to reveal another upcoming feature:

🚗 New Feature: Buy Damaged Cars

The Junkyard owner will start offering broken and stripped vehicles for sale. New listings will appear daily, giving you fresh opportunities to find bargain deals. Buy, repair, and sell for profit!

🔍 Heads up! These cars might be in terrible condition. Use the scanner to understand exactly what you’re buying - and whether the price truly reflects the vehicle’s value. These are supposed to be good deals, after all!



🧰 Also as mentioned on Tuesday - you’ll now be able to sell stripped cars at the Junkyard without losing reputation. Just drive the car into the shed. The value will show on the display above the entrance - if the price is good, pull the lever outside and the car is sold!
