Today’s update brings a few new items, as well as a bunch of bugfixes and improvements.

New Content

• Added Apothecary furniture

Improvements

• Added an information panel telling a Cloud Conflict will remain unsolved until something is downloaded or uploaded.
• Increased emissive power of light sources. Actual lighting range remains the same. We’ve just made the source (lamp, crystals, etc) to be brighter on screen.
• Improved splitscreen performance on Switch Quality+ setting.
• Lights will now be lit a bit earlier in the season. By the end of the sunset it would start getting dark but lights would not be active yet.

Gameplay changes

• Favor balance changes:
  • Noticeably increased favor from the following actions:
    • Feeding animals (+50%)
    • Mining minerals and harvesting mushrooms (x2)
    • House jobs (x5)
  • Slightly increased favor from harvesting trees/flowers/animals (+20% base, +40% for quests)
  • Decreased favor from planting quest/sign crops (-50%, combined with other crop tasks it’s a 12.5% reduction)
• Increased farmhand work animation speed.

Bugfixes

• Fixed the game being unable to save when using the Favorite button too quickly when opening the shop.
• Fixed food not being properly distributed when splitting really big groups of animals.
• Fixed harvester tractor becoming invisible at mid range.
• Fixed fade in after loading not being properly handled in some systems.
• Fixed harvester tractor having idle and working sounds switched.
• Fixed plowed empty tiles being selected when double tapping a sprinkler.
• Fixed gamertags with special codes being parsed.
• Fixed cyber fence gates not splitting groups.
• Fixed moving stuff as a visitor not working properly. The fix will only work for connections with ping below ~400ms. Beyond that, some items will still be dequeued without any action.
