This hotfix to the Workshop Beta addresses the following issues...
New Features & Fixes
- The Update menu for updating Workshop items no longer defaults to "Public" visibility. It now defaults to the current visibility of the pack being updated.
- It is no longer necessary to choose an image when updating a Workshop item, instead you can keep your existing image!
- Fixed a bug where the Workshop question-picking algorithm for selecting never-before-seen questions was not taking into account the questions that clients had seen, and would instead base its decision-making on the host's question history only.
- Fixed a bug where, when uploading or updating a Workshop item, file paths containing letters with accents or non-English alphabet characters would cause a "Folder could not be found" error.
- Fixed a bug where, when uploading or updating a Workshop item, letters with accents or non-English alphabet characters in the "Title", "Description" and “Update Notes” boxes would become question marks when uploaded.
- Fixed a bug where, if a Workshop pack title contained letters with accents or non-English alphabet characters, those letters would be shown as question marks in the Categories menu.
- Fixed a bug where, in the Categories menu when using gamepad, pressing left/right at the start/end of the first row of Workshop categories would focus an unexpected item.
- Fixed a bug where long Workshop names would be pushed out of UI elements like the Question/Answer UI, TV Screen, Category Screen and Update menus. The text will now resize properly.
- In addition, there is now character truncation above 30 characters on the display text for Workshop names in space-restricted areas such as the Categories menu. During gameplay the full name will still be shown!
- Fixed a bug where pressing the A button on a gamepad would make a sound when downloading Workshop items in the lobby, despite it not doing anything.
- We've noticed that sometimes people forget to remove the "3-Tricks" credit from the Example Workshop Pack when creating their own packs, so a credit of "3-Tricks" will no longer display in-game. We don't want to take credit for something we didn't make!!

The following “known issues” have been logged and we are actively looking at resolutions before the beta is over. Thanks to all players who took the time to report bugs and help grow this list!
Known Issues
- We are aware of issues where the Workshop Create/Update will sometimes fail and needs to be retried. We're looking at methods to increase the reliability of these actions.
- We are aware of an issue where client and host category menu 'allowed' numbers become desynced if the host is subscribed to Workshop packs clients cannot see.
- We are investigating if it will be possible to give more useful feedback if the host tries to play with a Workshop Pack that not all clients can see.
Thanks again for following Trivia Tricks!
