Hi there folks, we've pushed Project Regolith's first bug-fix patch, aiming at addressing some of the known issues we've spotted since launch a couple of days ago.
3rd of November, 2023 - Patch 1.01: - Fixed the final puzzle's music cues overlapping the closing music in the game's end sequence. - Fixed the controls responsible for scuttling the station not correctly triggering a music cue. - Moved Crew Log #11 (AKA Nerd Rage) out of it's confinement near the Terraforming Labs. - Fixed broken material on the Terraforming Test Tube's refined quantum energy seen during the Terraforming Lab puzzle. - Removed an oversized trigger in Terraforming that was causing LightBot to teleport somewhere he shouldn't, softlocking the game. - Implemented a fix for rare cases of the Station Control Arming Keys not spawning correctly during the Admin puzzle. - (Hopefully) Fixed an issue with loading the game from some checkpoints immediately crashing the host out of the scene. If you have any issues loading from checkpoints, please submit a bug report either in-game or via our Discord! - Attempting a fix for some players having their FPS locked to 20 - Not 100% certain that this will work, so if you're feeling like your framerate is locked in-game to a low value, please report it in our Discord or in the Steam Discussions!
Changed crowbar to an item that goes into inventory Changed the position of some bills Fixed a bug where the graphics of the dolls were on the tags Changed the process of entering the attic and entering the altar so that the event proceeds automatically. Removed unnecessary options. Changed the wording of some goals.
