Greetings Star Truckers!
The game has been updated to v1.0.41.0 bringing with it a range of bug fixes & balance tweaks. These should help provide a fairer and more consistent experience as you haul cargo across the stars.
Need to Know
Firstly we should mention that some of these fixes will only start to resolve themselves as you play. As existing jobs and cargo time out, newly generated jobs should behave as expected.
You will also notice that green and gold power cells that already exist in your cab will keep their existing charge despite an increase in capacity. However, any new power cells you find or buy will start at their new maximum capacity.
The last thing to note is that by fixing a bug in the reward calculations you will now receive higher cash payouts but less XP. We’ll keep an eye on how this plays out and if required work on a more nuanced economy and progression pass for a future update.
Balance
- Power Cells are now better value for money
- Reduced fines for abandoning most jobs to 50% of job value
- Kept fines for abandoning valuable jobs at 200% of job value
- Essential items, such as Power Cells and Air Filters, now spawn more often in regular shops
- Jobs now correctly calculate rewards which results in more pay but less xp
- Increased maximum charge for green and gold power cells
Side Job Fixes
- Fixed issue where “Junk in the Trunk” could get stuck
- Fixed issue with “Rendezvous” sometimes not starting correctly
- Fixed issue with “Perfect Timing” showing an incorrect destination
- Fixed issue with “Hit and Run” failing to redirect players back to Vexmont
- Fixed issue where some side jobs didn’t show "Wait for CB Call" prompt on the Convoy screen
