Patch Notes

Additions and Changes

• Added purchasable metal bars to the Expedited Delivery Services list, streamlining the forging process.
  
• (After considering user feedback, I recognized the importance of maintaining the simplicity of the old crafting system. Metal bars are now purchasable for those who prefer to skip the lengthy smelting process, while still retaining the traditional method for players who enjoy the detailed crafting experience. This aims to provide a balance that mirrors the old system without overhauling it completely. I’ll continue to monitor feedback to ensure this meets player expectations.)
  
• Added an FPS counter to the settings menu.
  
• Added a frame rate cap option in the settings menu. (Designed to help protect your GPU from unnecessary strain.)
