Thanks for doing your part at the Border Post! Back to work.

Greetings, Clerks! Another haul of bug fixes has arrived at the Border Post.

DISCLAIMER: There was a major issue with how the script for auto-saving was handled. It's now fixed, but if you've got soft-locked before this update — you might still be in that state. We're very sorry, but the only solution in that situation would be to start a New Game.

Good news are — this issue was fixed, which should greatly improve the experience and eliminate A LOT of soft-locks!

[h3]Patch Notes:[/h3]

• Fixed an issue where Player's mouth UI would show an incorrect amount of blood.
  
• Fixed an issue where finishing the Bridge but not pushing it would soft-lock the SaveGame.
  
• Fixed an issue where Air Cans would get stuck in the Air Can provider and eventually block the other Air Cans from spawning.
  
• Fixed an issue where Mo would get soft-locked if the Player were to get dizzy while he waited for an interaction with them.
  
• Fixed an issue where Mo would get soft-locked if the Player discovered the Duck just before witnessing what's in the train.
• Fixed an issue where the Recycler's damage state would get reset.
  
• Fixed an issue that made Mo spam you with an infinite loop of empty messages.
  
• Fixed an issue that sometimes prevented Mo from congratulating the player on completing a pile of wood.
  
• Fixed an issue which prevented the thought 'Question for the Capital' from triggering, locking away the ability to earn the corresponding Achievement.
  
• Fixed an issue that led the player to get buried under the mountain of bodies during the THRESHOLD Event.
• Fixed an issue that made the train slow down to a crawl after loading a save file.
  
• Fixed a Player thought not appearing at the right moment — confusing them into thinking that stopping the train should be enough to stop the THRESHOLD and get the "Broken Bond" ending.
  
• Added a tracking zoom, which follows the Horn after it crashes into the roof, as many people tend to not notice it landed there.
  
• Other very minor fixes.

Thanks for doing your part at the Border Post! Keep the train running.

- Preventing the removal of savegames in case of a death before the THRESHOLD.
- Fixed a collision issue.
- Fixed a visual issue in the Capital Chambers.
- Fixed a script issue with Mo.
