Hi again everyone! I’ve been focusing on polishing the 2.0 experience as much as possible before the next big update. Today’s patch addresses some critical issues and brings a bit more overall refinement to the game.

Here’s what’s included in today’s patch:

QoL Improvements

• The torch can now be selected from the weapon wheel (for gamepad users).

• Skill books now say ‘Use’ instead of ‘Take’ for clarity.

• Renamed ‘BypassTool’ and ‘Hacktool’ in the crafting screen to BTool and HTool.

• Updated descriptions for BTool and HTool in the crafting screen to match.

• Changed sound effect when interacting with Armour Coating Stations.

• Changed notification text when picking up parts (no longer says ‘scraps’).

UI Fixes

• Fixed issue where the missions, map, and character screens did not pause the game in certain situations.

• Fixed bug where switching from missions to crafting caused the cursor to disappear.

• Switching from missions back to inventory or character screens no longer unpauses the game.

• Fixed software upgrades sometimes showing a blank white box instead of software icons after they've been unlocked.

Gameplay Fixes

• Red barrels near the storage facility now explode when shot.

• Resolved an issue preventing melee bandits from dealing damage properly.

• Armour colour changes now update correctly on the inventory screen.

Level & World Fixes

• Fixed floating tree and exposed rock model near UESA's bunker in Berith II.

• Rocks near the watchtower/comms centre no longer trap the player and now have proper footstep sounds.

• Made loot changes to some chests in Berith II.

• Adjusted inventory character position in the 'Bandit Cells' level (was appearing too high).

Other Fixes

• Fixed an issue where accepting a new mission didn’t remove the previous waypoint from the minimap.

• Bandits no longer incorrectly scan as androids.

• Fixed issue where mines and grenades couldn’t be used again after one use.

• Fixed Leila Khan’s (the bookseller in Chronos) mouth continuing to move after exiting the vendor screen.

• Fixed flickering issue of the Assault Rifle’s safety switch while sprinting.

I really appreciate all the kind words you've given me; they genuinely help me stay motivated. Thank you for your patience and support. I can’t wait to show you what’s coming in the next big update! Until then, I’ll keep pushing out small patches like this. I hope this helps improve your experience.❤️
