Thanks to your support and detailed reports, we've quickly identified and fixed more issues. We're incredibly grateful! 🙏🙂
If you encounter any more bugs, please don’t hesitate to let us know – together, we’ll make the game even better. Thank you for your patience and trust!
Fixed a bug where the Parcel Purchase Quest was not completed.
Added a fix to the loading mechanic to ensure that players stuck with the Parcel Purchase Quest will have the quest marked as completed and can continue the storyline.
Fixed saves with a broken Area A Renovation Quest on the Parcel. Players who completed the entire Area A renovation without having the appropriate quest will have the quest marked as completed after loading such a save.
Fixed broken saves with the Repair Failure Quest on Area A active despite the absence of an active failure. The quest will now be marked as completed after loading a save with this issue.
Fixed the Traffic option in the settings. Previously, the Traffic option could still enable street traffic in some locations, even when turned off.
Fixed a bug that made completing vehicle restoration on the Two-Column Lift impossible when two vehicles were overlapping.
Fixed broken game saves with two vehicles overlapping on the Two-Column Lift. Now, after loading such a broken save, the problematic vehicle will be removed, allowing players to continue the restoration.

The next major update will focus on significantly improving the game’s performance, especially in areas traversed by vehicles, to ensure that loading new content in these zones doesn’t cause substantial FPS drops. Additionally, improvements will be made to the junkyard parcel area.

Thank You very much for being with us and giving us so much valuable feedback!
The game is constantly under development and improvement. There's still a lot ahead of us - we want to give you a great game at full launch. This is our goal
We are still working on improving the gamepad mechanics. Thank you for your feedback. We still need more time for subsequent iterations, the game was not made with the controller in mind (our mistake), but we want to do everything to make it work with it as best as we can. Most of the mechanics are already working, there are still bugs that we are fixing and we ask for your understanding and ofc feedback. We will make every effort to make it better. ːsteamhappyː

Important information: The next update will be released at the beginning of December. It will focus on improving the reloading of different areas in the game. The FPS drop reported by you when loading new areas is now our top priority to fix so that moving around the map does not cause FPS drops. This involves many changes and tests before we publish the update. As always, we will do our best to release the update as soon as possible, but we are aware of the challenge ahead of us. Thank you for your support and patience – the game is continuously being developed.
