Monster Care Simulator Playtest - Banana Tiger Studio
Changelog
Gameplay
Pause Menu: When opening the pause menu, the game now fully pauses—the game and time of day no longer progresses.
Fixed an issue causing monsters to spawn with ice or nails in the wrong positions; this should also resolve problems with older saves—please let us know if you run into any issues.
Disabled collisions between customers that were causing them to get stuck in front of the store.
Added extra security checks on physics objects to reduce the chance of them getting stuck in walls or flying high in the air.

Separated volume controls into two independent sliders—one for music and one for sound effects.
Adjusted the “Press Enter to finish the day” text to avoid overlapping HUD elements.
Resolved various visual issues with LOD objects.

Other
Added 100 new random pet-themed names.
Fixed an issue where the aerosol noise from a healing spray continued until the can was dropped or trashed.

Bugfixes: - Fixed a bug that was causing Electroball towers to stop attacking when not in the screen. - Fixed a bug with the Light Cruicible production VFX. - Fixed a missbehaviour with some tower priority configurations.
For some users, the created cursors had the wrong Hotspot. Sorry to those who have it, for the most part I have reloaded cursors with this bug myself, but if you still have it and I haven't fixed it, please go into modifier mode (click on your set on the main page and the wrench and hammer icon will appear at the bottom) and upload your set again (it will be perceived as a modification). Once uploaded, just restart the app and the problem should go away. If you didn't create this set, just click optimize. Special thanks to J and マリス＜クイーン＞ .For your feedback on this bug =)

Speedrun Challenge Reminder

Hello friends! Due to the fact that many people had to stay at home in isolation due to COVID-19, we decided to add another Let's Play Together competition in the middle of the week, just for fun-with different crazy levels and (alas!) no prizes. We think it is clear by now this extra LPT is a permanent addition too :)
The rules are the same: log in to our Discord server, keep it running, play a competitive level, complete it with 5 stars and have fun! Visit our Discord server (#lets-play-together channel) to learn more.
