G'day Scrappers!
v0.38 brought a lot of major improvements — but also some uninvited guests in the form of stubborn bugs. This second hotfix aims to squash the last of them and smooth things out once and for all.
You may also notice gone are the extension Versions (ie v0.38'.2') to aid in European and other Regions utilizing Commas (v0,38,2 rather than v0.38.2) being able to play the game without Saving/Loading Issues due to the Version Checker System not being able to Convert Comma Value to Decimal Value.
Here’s what’s been fixed in v0.38 v2:
- 🐛 Fixed Dummy Items being treated like real E-Waste during loading, causing all kinds of issues with disassembly, interactions, and the trolley in some cases.
- 🔁 Scrapper Joe Tasks will now re-roll correctly should a task load in with an 'Amount' requested being Zero.
- 🛠️ Fixed Dummy Items not being accepted at Scrapper Joe’s drop-off.
- ✨ Redesigned the Street E-Waste Indicator — gone are the blue particle streams; now you’ll see a subtle green glow instead (Similar to how Child Errors show in Disassembly). Being easier on the eyes and more immersive.
- ⚖️ Dummy Items now inherit proper weight values (instead of just dollar value), meaning weight-based systems will behave more accurately.
- 🧠 Fixed RAM components in PCs, Laptops, and Servers not loading properly on second save/load cycles.
- 💾 Fixed a bug where some purchased items weren’t being recognized as “Owned” in the [F1] Command Prompt.
- 🖥️ First Tutorial Panel (Controls Intro) now displayed correctly across all aspect ratios — no more skewed controls on ultrawide or 4:3 setups.
Thanks again for your patience, your bug reports, and your ongoing support.
This patch should stabilize the big changes brought in with v0.38 — and I feel now we’re finally back on solid ground. 💚
