InDev access to the furniture update is now available. Furniture will be released into the InDev through batches. This means that THE FURNITURE UPDATE IS NOT CONTENT COMPLETE AT THIS TIME. This is to ensure we test as much as possible. During these batches we will also be looking to add in new tenants, though some of these may need to be held back until the Free Build update has commenced, as the property may not contain enough space to host the furniture requirements for them.
As always, thanks for your patience with this. It’s been a content heavy update - which I think is reflected in the game files now being a chonky 1gb (up from 300mb previously). Remember, this is by no means the finished product, this is just early access to the update which continues to be worked upon.
How do I get involved?
Glad to have you involved. Follow these steps to access the In-Dev Beta Branch:
- Right Click on your Landlord's Super install in Steam and select "properties"
- Click the Betas tab and then select InDev Indevelopment access
- The InDev build should start to download on steam!
Please do keep in mind that the In-Dev branch is going to be very unstable and buggy. But also remember to report these issue to me over on the steam forums.
While every effort has been made to test old save data, the update is significant and It is therefore advisable to create a backup of your save data before trying the new build.
Thanks,
Greg
April Dev Log
The Job Centre is being given a face lift, and filled with some new jobs!
( Giz’a job Maggie )
April
Month 11 of Landlord’s Super Early Access.
The Furniture Update is beginning to look like one of the biggest and most important updates we’ve done for the game so far. So much so that with all the additional content, calling it “The Furniture Update” might not make much sense upon release. Let’s take a look at all this additional content to understand why.
FURNITURE
All original furniture has now been replaced with their new models and colour variants. Creating new furniture is the most time consuming aspect of working on this update. With this consideration in mind, we’re likely to release into InDev with what we have now, and add more furniture with smaller updates as time goes on. Still, no date for InDev release yet.
JOB CENTRE FACELIFT
As we’re adding new jobs to The Furniture Update (explained in the Tamsin’s Wall segment of this post), we thought it a good time to polish up the environmental art of the Job Centre. It now looks a lot prettier, and more period appropriate It also now contains a public toilet for players to pass time in town.
You can see the new Job Centre in action here.
Tamsin Wall can now be fixed with a rewards for doing so. (Watch here.)
TAMSIN’S WALL
With The Furniture Update we’re beginning to address the lack of stuff to do whilst renting the property. Part of this is introducing new jobs for the player to complete.
The first Job we’ve implemented for players to complete is the repairing of Tamsin’s wall. Doing so the first time will reward the player with a unique item with repeated completions of the job resulting in a flat fee. You can see what this unique reward is here. The job is unlocked when the player has purchased a Hammer & a Cement Mixer.
MUSIC
The Cassette Player and Tapes are now implemented and functional. The Cassette Player allows players to listen to music through the use of Tapes. There are 4 Tapes. Each Tape is unlocked by completing a unique job or task within the world.
One of the Tapes is blank, allowing you to add your own music through a folder in the game files.
One of the tapes you unlock will be blank, but don’t worry, you can add your own music to it through a folder in the game files.
(See it in action here.)
COMMUNITY HIGHLIGHT
Some Jalopy content from Die Ente des Ostens, and Cameron! has really brought Mar’s H. Abiff character concept to life.
