The increased size cap effectively eliminates restrictions within build areas, the only way to hit the cap is to extend far outside the build area. It makes it easier to stretch a quick runway or make really big parts for large ships. Some parts that start small may hit the cap sooner.

Things like steering wheels and fuel tanks can no longer be used as the root for structures. The reason for this is that it defies some of the schema for how vessels are expected to be constructed which can cause structures to take lots of damage when impacted. Valid roots are now things like cubes or other simple shapes (and hulls). An easy root to have is a cube that you mark with a specific color to note it as the root and hide it away somewhere so you can move it later if needed.

If you have structures with roots that are no longer allowed, they will still work but likely suffer from extreme damage when impacted.

Catching fish with a Nautikin is client side, because fish are not synchronized in multiplayer due to the extreme amount of fish (saves a lot of time/network messages). Though this will likely not be noticeable unless 2 players are fishing in the same location and discuss the fish they are fishing. In any case, when you catch a fish you receive a fish regardless of if other players are catching the "same" fish in a similar location.

Fish will react to a member of their group being taken and become harder to catch. They will calm down if you return later.

Eating fish meat will restore a small amount of health but cannot be used to revive Nautikins.

All caught fish result in the same type of fish meat but result in different amounts.

Fish meat spawned from killing fish with harpoons will not be saved and despawn after a while if not picked up.

Fish containers can hold any type of fish like meat (Fish, Shark, Turtle, Whale, etc.), but will not allow any other item type.

You can sell the fish container inventory when nearby buy shacks.

Catching fish with nets only requires the boat be moving and nearby fish. The fish do not have to go into the net physically. The orientation of the net relative to the fish does matter.

Fishing nets do not have collisions for performance reasons / limitations of the physics engine.

Each fish container can hold 1200 kg of fish.

You can put fishing parts on structures, but they will not do anything (except for passive fish storage).

The fish container can be used without the fishing net, but the fishing net will not do anything without a fish container.

When you drop items underwater, they tend to simply stay in the water where you dropped them. However there are/were some unintended side effects with this behavior such as dropping an item underwater above a submarine will make it attach to the submarine but still float above it, so instead now it will snap when underwater and dropped above a vessel. Additionally since this dropping behavior is not a saved action, if you park a submarine under previously dropped items they may decide to snap to the submarine on load rather than continue floating. The intent with this behavior is that if at any point you drop an item above a vessel you want it to stay with the vessel and if you do not you don't want it to sink into the ocean.

There are now 200 parts in the game.

Guides will be updated / added for fishing soon.

• Added one missing support dialogue in the youkyuu: Nightmare in Noyama. If you were trying to talk to Toushirou in Town 4 and it wasn't working, the TO DO (instructions) in the menu actually indicated the need to talk to 野口 (のぐち). Now if you talk to Toushirou after hunting the enemies, a support dialogue will properly play. Sorry for the inconvenience!

We are aware that the game is not perfect, and we have received many requests for various quality-of-life fixes and more. Rice Games has dedicated tremendous time and effort over the last six years to turn Shujinkou from a concept to a video game that has launched globally on multiple platforms, and will continue to remain dedicated and steadfast in providing the best customer support, QOL-implementations, and quick responses to queries from gamers who have purchased Shujinkou or have played through the Shujinkou Demo.

We are aware of the following issues and are looking into solutions:

• Lighting issues (areas are too bright) for a small subset of computers, specifically in labyrinths during Dusk and Night (sometimes Dawn), but also sometimes on the Nation Map.
  
• D-pad lag in various environments when keyboard and controller are both connected.
  
• Small maru (like in ぴ) may not appear on all instances seen in dialogue
  
• Under certain circumstances, the Curse ailment does not always trigger in battle.
  
• If you have fewer than 15 MB of free space left on your computer and you have Data Analytics enabled, a harmless pink crash may occur during battle once in a while. The solution to this is to free up some space on your computer, or disable Data Analytics via the Party Menu.
  
• The game does not display properly on some ultrawide monitors
  
• There may be a resolution issue when loading the game on Mac versions (unconfirmed).

• New option to select glyph set if on Steam Deck. Currently, it always defaults to the Microsoft / Xbox glyph set.
  
• New option to default to Keyboard glyph set even if a controller or joystick is connected, specific to PC users.
  
• Find ways to make Town Navigation a bit smoother.
  
• Allow 4-way font-display cycling of text for various UI, similar to how the implementation is done for the Item Compendium menu.

As stated in the rules of the official Shujinkou Discord Server, fellow gamers should not be sending private messages to members of the team, including the director. Contact regarding key requests, streaming opportunities, business discussion, and more should be sent to contact@ricegames.net. This has been a server rule for over 4 years now, yet some people on the team are receiving a lot of private message requests. Please keep this in mind if you are curious as to why your messages are not receiving responses—also, please note that this is an extremely busy period and that bug reports and polish will continue to take precedent over the next few weeks.

Thank you for playing Shujinkou. The team and I are excited to see more and more players progress through the game. Already, over a thousand gamers around the world are crawling through Shujinkou's dungeons, playing through the Genya Arc on PS5, PS4, PC, and Mac, with some of the most dedicated players already spending over 100 hours fighting the Akuma, learning language, and enjoying bonding events with the Fuu Lobby partners while still working their way towards clearing the first story arc. The team and I are truly honored.

Warm regards, and happy dungeon-crawling!
Julian Rice

Hello flatmates,

A few weeks ago, I took part in an episode of Human Can Opener, the go-to podcast for Disco Elysium and "disco-likes", hosted by the YouTuber The 41st Precinct. It was an extremely stimulating conversation -- around three and a half hours of art, inspirations, politics, and game design.

If you're interested in a more private and relaxed look at the conception of Glasshouse, you can check out episode 2x05 below.
