[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][h3]👷‍♀️ Hi Junkyard fans! 👷‍♂️[/h3][p]
We have a fresh update for you with lots of cool new features! 🚀 The junkyard is changing for the better, and recycling is reaching new heights. New possibilities, more space, and a few surprises await you in the game—take a look below and see for yourself! ♻️🔥

🎮 Gameplay:
🔹 Added new waste processing branches:

🔵Paper – paper baler producing paper bales
🟡Plastic – plastic baler producing plastic bales
🟠Wood – wood shredder producing sawdust bags

🔹 More space at the junkyard: moved the delivery truck outside the area and removed the market building.
🔹 Added a laptop that gives you access to the market and allows to purchase machines, tools, and other objects. After purchasing, a package appears next to the warehouse; it can be picked up, unpacked, and the machine can be placed anywhere.
🔹 Added the ability to move containers for paper, plastic, metal, and mixed waste.
🔹 Changed wholesale selling: from now on, selling requires driving into the zone in front of a container of a given type.
🔹 Added the option to stop trash deliveries after selecting the appropriate upgrade in the upgrades panel.


🛠 Bug Fixes & Improvements:
🔹 Fixed a bug causing machines to sink into the ground.
🔹 Fixed a bug causing machines to tip over.
🔹 Fixed a bug causing the crane magnet to malfunction.
🔹 Fixed a bug with objects falling under machines.
🔹 Fixed a bug preventing items from being placed into machines directly from the cart.
🔹 Fixed a bug allowing a bed frame to be placed in the cart.
🔹 Fixed a bug preventing a metal table from being placed into the metal crusher.
🔹 Fixed incorrectly displayed control hints.
🔹 Fixed a bug with cart driving sound remaining after exiting the cart.
🔹 Improved and updated translations.
🔹 Improved and changed fonts.
🔹Improved truck behavior on exit maps – the truck should no longer run over objects and get stuck.
🔹 Improved navigation in panels when using a gamepad.
🔹 Improved naming of furniture parts – corrected left/right labels.

[h3]Thanks for all your feedback after the Freedom Update!
This hotfix addresses several bugs and quality-of-life issues[/h3]

👷‍♂️ 1.4.1 - New Update is Live!

🛠 Bug Fixes & Improvements:

🔵Fixed missing button icons – all control icons should now display correctly. If you still see a triangle symbol, it means that the action doesn't have a key assigned. Just go to the keybinding menu and assign a key, or reset your controls to default.

🔵Fixed an issue where machines could disappear during placement.

🔵Adjusted the cash drop chance from trash bags – it should now feel more balanced.

🔵Fixed a bug where the upgrade panel would show up while placing machines.

🔵Fixed glyphs not displaying properly in the upgrade panel.

🔵Fixed an issue where the cart wouldn't auto-pick up items of the "other" type.

🔵Improved the keybinding panel – now with section headers for better clarity.

🔵Fixed a bug where objects could fall through the map.

🔵Fixed incorrect translation of Droffe bumpers – the front and rear bumpers are now labeled correctly.

🔵Fixed a bug where the crane could teleport when placed near the scrapyard border.

🔵Fixed a bug allowing players to enter the market while moving machines.
