Update Notes

Thank you for playing holoVillage.

We've released the following update today.

Added a fine-adjustment mode for facility placement that locks the character's facing direction
- Activate by holding Shift (keyboard) or R2/RT (controller) while moving with a Construction Ticket equipped
- Also works when repositioning with the Hammer
Cooking now retains the previously selected quantity for easier consecutive crafting
Added Apple Juice, Pickles, and French Fries to the initially unlocked cooking recipes
- All initial farm crops, as well as apples gathered from the Grassland, can now be used in cooking
- These will also be unlocked for players already in-game if not yet unlocked
UI improvements to the material selection screen in Smithing Development
- Stats preview now shown on mouse hover when adding materials
- Fixed an issue where clicking outside item icons (but still within the background frame) would close the UI
- Other minor behavior adjustments
Villagers tending a shop can now be given "Pose" or "Come With Me" commands
Sped up the initial loading of Kumarin Store screens and outfit-related screens

Fixed an issue where equipment crafted at the Anvil and meals made at the Cooking Station would sell for less than the displayed price when sold to NPCs other than Smiths and Cooks
Fixed an issue where clicking directly on the dish icon would not register when cooking is complete
Minor adjustments to visitor and villager behavior

Bug fixes will continue to be released on an ongoing basis regardless of the above.
