Cozy Caravan News

Hey Cozy Caravaners!

While we continue buzzing about working on the next region, we've got some new cute goodies and and a few hotfixes for you today.

Do you love bees as much as we do? Appreciate everything Rigby does for you? How about making him feel at home out on the road with the new Bee Hive caravan decorations!





And if you really want to show your support, there's a new outfit pack available at the Guild Store with 6 new bee-themed outfits!



Plus, following the release of fishing, you'll also find a new ocean-themed outfit pack!

We've added a new option in the game menu to report a bug. It will automatically send some error information. Of course, we're still happy to receive reports over on our Discord channel if you find that more convenient!

• Fixed an issue with the Corn Chowder quest getting stuck on the last stage.
  
• Reset dialogue variables on Ellie's Stew quest
  
• Fix an issue where input would stop working when rapidly entering and exiting the caravan.
  
• Fix some NullRef errors.
  
• Fix Jill appearing at the campsite.

Hi all! A quick hotfix update to address some issues in the 0.3.2 Fishing update.

• Fixed an issue where players could end up in the upcoming 'Bayside' region (it's not ready yet! 😭).
  
• Fixed some environment collision issues.
  
• Fixed some dyes at Donatello's spawning in unreachable locations.
  

NOTE: If you have saved your game over in Bayside and are unable to return, please go into the 'Settings' menu and use the 'Help I'm Stuck' option to move your character and caravan back to Fellowood Acres.

Thanks for those who helped us track down these issues!

Hey Cozy Caravaners!

Grab your waders, it's time to go fishing! Today, we've got our initial release of the fishing activity! You'll see some mysterious fish swimming about, and once you've acquired your very own fishing rod, you can kick back and drop in a line.



To get started, Mirela in Clamberry will need a courier for a ✨special package✨ addressed to Arthur at the Guild Hall. Lend a hand, and you'll see a new toy available in the Guild Catalogue.

To start with, there are a few different fish to find, and we'll be adding more in upcoming updates. Whenever you catch a fish for the first time (or a new size record), you'll pose for a photo to log it in your journal.



The fishing activity is still in a relatively early state, and we'll be continuing to refine and improve it, so we'd love to hear everyone's thoughts and ideas!

In addition, there's a new fishing-themed caravan decoration to celebrate the occasion, along with some new colour schemes!

[h2]Fixes[/h2]

• Recipe/outfit mix-ups fixed for various outfits.
  
• Logic fixed for applying frog stickers on postcards (not all stickers were showing up).
  
• Photo Topiary quest now continues properly.
  
• Bubba Chats no longer repeat existing conversations.
  
• Added backup system for recipe letters.
  
• Nightshade Outfit Pack outfit is no longer a craftable recipe.
  
• Book return text fixed for Mirela, Angela, and Dottie.
  
• Fix objectives for Grandma Dolly's Stew quest remaining on postcards even after completion.
  
• Various environmental collision fixes.
  
• Fixed the wrong photos being shown in the photo album pages.
  
• Fixed collision with some caravan customisation adornments.
  
• Fixed the road from Croaker's Gully to Grandview Gardens not requiring the muddy wheels upgrade (SEE NOTE BELOW)
  

NOTE: If you used this road to go to Cottonbluff Cove before purchasing the muddy wheels upgrade, you will not be able to drive back to Harvestvale. But don't worry! You can use the "Help I'm Stuck" option in the settings menu to warp you and your caravan back to Fellowood Acres. Apologies!

[h2]Balance Adjustments[/h2]

• Station boosts decreased from 30% to 25%
  
• Big reduction in happiness required for guild tokens, level increment reduced from 20 to 10
  
• Increased guild token costs for most gameplay upgrades
  
• Recipe boost no longer stacks with ingredient boosts - Overall its a little quicker to get to the same level of upgrades, but the cosmetic upgrades are far less cost prohibitive.
  
• Activities now give one recipe per day, but it’s easier to get them, and all activities can now give recipes

Hey Cozy Caravaners!

We've had loads of requests for different types of animals to add to Cozy Caravan, but few have had as many requests as our IRL best buds, the dog! 🐾🐕



This update is actually doing double-duty, bringing both dogs and wolves! Today, we've got:

[h2]Dogs[/h2]

• Shiba Inu
  
• Border Collie
  
• Blue Heeler
  
• German Shepherd
  
• Corgi
  
• Samoyed
  

[h2]Wolves[/h2]

• Grey Wolf
  
• Timber Wolf
  
• White Wolf
  
• Black Wolf
  

[h2]More to Come![/h2]
We know all of you love dogs as much as we do, and as much as we'd love to include every single breed, we've got to start somewhere. So we hope one of these pups steals your heart, and if not, never fear, there are more to come! ✨

[h2]Fixes[/h2]

• Fixed an issue where Mirela wouldn't talk to you when needing to return a book (kinda rude tbh).
  
• Fixed various collision issues around Cottonbluff Cove.
  
• Fixed a bug preventing Raphael's quest from completing correctly.
  
• Fixed some recipes being unlocked under the wrong circumstances.
  

[h2]Known Issues[/h2]

• For some older saves, the Ellie's Stew quest might still show objectives on the postcards after the quest is complete. The quest has completed correctly, it's just continuing to show some objectives. We have a potential fix which will be in a new build soon.
  
• We know some people are having issues using an external controller on Steam Deck. While we have replicated the issue internally, we're still working on a solution.
