🛠️ Fixes:

• 🐾 General performance is smoother and snappier!
  
• 🧠 Uses less RAM – now with extra efficiency magic!
  
• ✨ Supporter pack statue particles are shinier and nicer.
  
• 📜 Recipe tooltip is back to behaving properly.
  
• 🐛 Critters now block customers and staff way less.
  
• 🔍 Search tab bug – squashed!
  
• 🏖️ Cats no longer get stuck at sandcastles.
  
• 🪑 Cats shouldn't sit on the headrests of benches anymore.
  
• 🗿 Fixed statues not highlighting the affected tables.

• 🚪 Customers shouldn't get stuck when leaving anymore.

🔄 Changes:

• 🔸 Switching between very different resolutions still doesn't work for some people.

In the previous update I had re-added auto-switching for controller inputs allowing players to control TBAS Study Pro "out of the box" (without needing to fiddle with the rebinding menu), allowing Unity to automatically switch "active" input to be whatever controller was sending signals to the computer. However, I was contacted about an issue from multiple users where certain controllers would provide a continuous input to Unity (e.g. stick drift) regardless of user intent, thereby interfering with alternative/intentional user input. This frustrated users, and I don't want users to have to play the "deduction-game" on what controller is interfering with their intended input the first time they boot up the program. Because of this, I have removed input auto-switching again, but this time the UI in the Aircraft Tracking test has been rearranged to more specifically guide users to explicitly assign controllers to tests/rebind inputs if they haven't yet done so. It's not a perfect solution, but it's the best I can come up with given the contraints that the Unity game engine provides.

- Music does not loop anymore for those long cleans.
- Music can be turned down to 0 without stopping the song.
- Small wall fix in warehouse.

Greetings, children of the night,

Another patch, another wave of bugs crushed beneath my heel. Only a few stubborn ones remain, but they are battle-hardened pests. I shall summon reinforcements to finish them off. Do not worry—it shall be done.

We've also improved some instructions and quality-of-life features for our beloved customers. After all, a well-run Blood Bar is in everyone's best interest—mostly mine, but still.

Now, listen well: unless something urgent breaks, my mortal developers will rest until March 24th. After that, they return to work, and we shall plan a major update. Among the changes? A new level, requested by none other than Andrea Reyes—a most generous patron who spends without counting. His investments are, of course, great for my business.

Since we are preparing a big update, I welcome your suggestions. The best way to share them? Our Discord forum. There, you can whisper your ideas directly to the minions who build the game.

Now, here is what this patch brings:

Fixed:

• Deleting a table with empty drinks no longer confuses the Minions.
  
• Destroying doors now properly removes the outline when pressing Escape.
  
• The victory panel now scales correctly with your screen resolution.
  
• Furniture shop buttons and the scrollbar now scale properly.
  
• Modified inputs should load right away, not just when opening the options menu.
  
• Better performance in construction mode—your Blood Bar should run smoother.
  
• Awareness display animations now play even when the game is paused.
  
• Quests requiring a percentage of Awareness now actually use a percentage (instead of random numbers).
  
• Modifying your bar layout no longer randomly removes walls or furniture.
  
• Fixed some dialogues where the wrong character spoke—how dare they?
  
• Morgue bodies will no longer spawn inside walls when emptied.
  
• Humans in cells now sober up when taken out—though their problems are far from over.
  
• Fixed some quests where furniture already placed wasn’t counted.
  
• Changing the bar layout now correctly updates table slots.
  
• Loading from a save now displays the correct values in the Furniture Manager.
  
• The finance panel now works properly on ultrawide screens.
  
• Biker and Disco themes now correctly show their colors in the style percentage panel.
  
• The industrial hand dryer no longer floats mysteriously.
  
• The pirate bar’s end piece no longer blocks workers.

Changed:

• The Prestige UI now says "MAX" when you reach the highest level.
  
• Alert icons are now easier to see.
  
• Some main quests have been rebalanced. Be grateful.
  
• New construction help menu to guide you.
  
• Low stock alerts now show a percentage of your total stock.
  
• Some NavMesh colliders have been adjusted—movement should feel better.

Added:

• Input helper when placing furniture—so you don’t mess up.
  
• Placement outlines now change color based on whether placement is valid or not.
  
• Human type information has been added. Their flavor remains unchanged.

If you have suggestions, send them my way. If you appreciate our hard work, reward us as you should—leave a good review! It helps more than you think.

Have a fangtastic night,

The Mighty Vladimir de la Ligne
(Clever Trickster Team)

⁠
⁠In Season 18, drift into the all-new Futura Garden Arena and experience the next generation of competition. But even at the dawn of a new age, style is everything — and few things say timeless like a mean lean muscle machine. That’s why the Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack Car Body is automatically unlocked upon purchasing Season 18’s Rocket Pass Premium!
⁠
⁠As you climb the Pass’ Premium Tiers, you’ll also unlock the modern Azura Car Body and high-tech accessories like the Space Tower Antenna, Spaceship Topper, and Waypoint Trail. And just for logging into Rocket League during Season 18, you’ll unlock the Future Fashion Banner. The free “Breathe” Player Anthem by Bad Computer — this Season’s theme song — will also be in the Shop from March 14 at 12 PM PT ‘til March 20 at 11:59 AM PT!

Why wait for a perfect utopia when you can create one NOW? (Or, you know… when patch v2.49 goes out.) On March 14 Pacific Time slightly before the Season begins, we’re introducing a range of new mutators that’ll allow you to make your own weird and wonderful experiences in Exhibition Mode and Private Matches.
⁠
⁠Want the madness of multiple soccar balls? Go for it. Fancy dialing down the ball gravity? Sure thing. Score points for each demolition? Let the explosions begin. Here’s the full list of all the new mutators!

• Jumps: Take to the skies by increasing the number of jumps you can do at once! Do a double-jump, triple-jump, octuple-jump… Or, turn jumps off entirely and keep the competition ground level.
  
• Number of Balls: Why have just one soccar ball when you could have six? Choose between having one, two, four, or six balls in play.
  
• Ball Gravity: Alter the ball's gravitational pull and let the mayhem ensue. Options include low, high, super, and good ol’ fashioned default.
  
• Dodge Timer: Change the time allowed between dodges. Dial things up to unlimited and avoid ANY obstacle!
  
• Possession Score: Shake up the game by allowing players to score points just for staying in control of the ball.
  
• Demolish Score: Bring on the destruction! Allow players to score up to three points for each demolition.
  
• Normal Goal Score: Go for the goal like never before. Increase the points earned for each successful shot in the back of the net!
  
• Aerial Goal Score: Look out below! Increase how much you can score for each successful airborne shot.
  
• Assist Score: Teamwork is the key to victory. Allow players to earn up to three points for each assist.
  
• Enforce Territories: Get back on your side! This mutator enables the Split Shot wall, dividing teams across each half of the field. Players will be demolished if they touch the ground on the opponents' side.

⁠Additionally, we’re adding new options for existing mutators! Here’s a look:
Added options for Ball Type

• Player Seeking
  
• Dropshot
  
• Score Absorb

Added options for Max Score

• 10
  
• 20
  
• 30
  
• 40
  
• 50
  
• 60
  
• 70
  
• 80
  
• 90
  
• 100

Added options for Demolish

• On Ball Contact
  
• On Ball Contact (FF)

Added options for Rumble

• Grappling Hooks Only
  
• Haymakers Only

You were that close! Whenever the ball hits the crossbar or goal posts, a ping will echo throughout the arena, making sure your teammates don’t celebrate victory prematurely. Better luck next time…


⁠⁠This change will go live March 14 Pacific Time with v2.49. Speaking of crossbar, Season 18 is celebrating the “Crossbar Queen” Athena with the free CROSSBAR QUEEN Player Title! Find this Title in the Shop’s Community tab from March 14 at 9 AM PT to March 21 at 8:59 AM PT. Her returning “Moment (Worlds Version)” and “Eternal” Player Anthems will be purchasable in the tab from March 14 at 12 PM PT to March 18 at 11:59 AM PT.
Being a good sport never goes out of fashion. We’re expanding player reporting in Rocket League to include voice reporting in v2.49. If you play Fortnite, you may be familiar with this feature.
⁠
⁠Voice reporting means in addition to being able to block, mute, and report other players, you will be able to submit audio evidence when reporting suspected violations of our Community Rules. This will help us take action against players using voice chat to bully, harass, discriminate, or engage in other inappropriate behavior. Learn more about voice reporting in our FAQ.


Your vehicle customization options are about to take a quantum leap! Advance through Season 18’s Rocket Pass Premium Tiers to unlock cutting-edge items and experience the next generation of automotive aesthetics.


Even if this Season were traveling to the past, Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack would still fit in with its clean look. Alternatively, with the more involved appearance of Azura, you can face the future boldly. (Not that you’d need to, because the future looks bright in Futura Garden!)
⁠
⁠Let’s continue with something that couldn’t be more futuristic: neon lasers! With the animated Cosmological Decal, your car will look like a non-stop rave. If that doesn’t make you feel like the star of the show, shine like the soccar champion you are with the StarStud Boost.
⁠
⁠The fourth state of matter may be too hard to understand in the present, but you can make it common knowledge in the future with the Plasma Ball Goal Explosion. If the geography of the cosmos is more your area of expertise, the Star Chart Goal Explosion might be more your thing!
⁠
⁠Who says you can’t take an old friend with you to the future? (Or at least a new version of an old one.) The Pigeon 3000 Topper is here to make sure the pecking order stays the same against artificial forms of life like the Rocket Drone Antenna.⁠
⁠
⁠Like how Season 18 is a peek of a perfect future, the rewards mentioned above are just a peek of what the Rocket Pass holds. This Season’s Rocket Pass is piled high with rewards, with 70+ Tiers across free and Premium. Don’t forget to live in the moment with what you unlock!

Hint: disco makes a comeback in the future! Get your groove on with some of the funkiest Tournament Rewards ever to mark a Rocket League Season: the Disco Ball Boost, Disco Floor Trail, and Disco Party Goal Explosion. Use this Goal Explosion to turn the whole arena into a disco party! But how about we take a step back in time? Step into the dark ages (meaning, before disco graced this world) with the Knighted Topper.
⁠
⁠⁠There are plenty more Tournament Rewards, so compete like your future depends on it!



⁠⁠Pack your trunk for utopia — Season 18 runs from March 14 ‘til June 18, 2025!
