Tons of new items and QOL updates!

This update is a pretty exciting one as we've included quite a few epic features. Our favourite being the Auto Deposit feature which will allow you to deposit items into a chest without opening it. Another huge QOL update are the improvements to the crafting system. Now you can click an item and craft it's prerequisites without switch tabs.



We apologize if we missed listing any new items or bug fixes. Other news, the Switch version is currently being worked on and we appreciate your patience as we get it to the best state we can. The Steam Workshop update is coming along way faster than we initially projected, we will have more news on that soon. If you would like to join the beta workshop we have more news on that in our discord.

There were also many many tweaks made to improve performance in this update, our initial feedback has shown huge leaps in performance. If you are experiencing problems though we have found reinstalling the game through steam and verifying game files fixes many. If you come across any bugs please let us know through steam discussions, or discord. Thank you!
