In today's update we're adding new content and lots of quality of life improvements and bugfixes.
This update will also be the first one with cross-platform support, that will enable you to play with players on consoles. You can see more information about console release in our Reddit Post
New content:
- New trees: Avocado (3 variants), Blueberry, Redcurrant
- New house furniture: Modern furniture set.
Improvements:
- When the host loses connection to the regional server, a prompt is now shown asking if the player wants to keep playing. New players won't be able to join the game, but current players won't be kicked unless they also connection with the host.
- Increased timeout for regional server connection loss a bit.
- Added an icon over the Quest Bazaar telling that there's room for new quests.
- Purchased Quest Bazaar are now automatically pinned.
- Added a setting that allows you to open the shop while Automatic Tractor is active. Disabled by default.
- Added a prompt in chat reminding of the Text Chat key when someone joins your farm for the first time, or when you join another farm.
- Added Cross-Platform Multiplayer button. When enabled, you can join players in other platforms, or the other way around. Enabled by default.
- Added a Toggle Walk option in Settings->Controls->Accesibility. With this function enabled, you don't need to keep the walk direction pressed.
- Closing the window in planters, signs, etc. no longer clears the currently selected item: Only selecting the None icon (red cross) clears it.
Bugfixes:
- Fixed Shop icon being shown as a possible action on lots of places in town.
- Fixed handling of input keyboard dialog in Steam Deck, should fix the "unable to create cloud save account" issue.
- Fixed arrow signs icon not updating when the season changes.
- Fixed "Ignore event decorations" setting value not being applied properly on banners upon loading the town.
- Fixed loading the wrong farm when joining a game right before the owner switches to a different farmland.
- Fixed getting stuck with the fences in town in rare cases.
- Fixed "hide invite code" setting removing completely the Invite Code button from the pause menu, making it impossible to copy it to the clipboard.
