Update 0.1.3 — Inventory, refinery & hotbar

Afterdepth — Update 0.1.3

Thanks for playing. This update adds more ways to grow your loadout, tightens the refinery and breathing gear, and fixes a few annoying inventory bugs. Steam post image

What’s new

• Bigger quick-use bar — Your hotbar can grow from 4 slots up to 8. Craft carry bags at the crafting table, then use each bag in order to unlock the next slot. Your progress is saved.

• Refinery upgrades — The refinery can be upgraded for more processing power. There’s a fuel system, a clearer layout that changes with your upgrade level, and small visual touches (fire and light while it’s running).

• Better oxygen tanks — New tank tiers with longer use time, available through crafting. Descriptions are clearer about how long each tank lasts.

• Easier item moves — Move items one at a time or everything at once between your bar, storage, and refinery where the game allows it.

• Drop items on the ground — Hold the use item control to throw away the whole stack from the slot you have selected. Picked-up drops keep the right amount; dropped items disappear after a while, with a short warning blink at the end.

• Clearer hotbar — The bar looks sharper, slots read better side by side, and the selected slot shows the item name so you’re never guessing.

• More to find in the world — Extra scrap spots to support new recipes and crafting.

• Languages — New and changed text is updated across the supported locales.

• World pickups — You can now collect the lantern placed in the environment; grab it in the world and use it as a wall-mounted light source.

Fixes & stability

• Using a consumable from one hotbar slot no longer eats from a different stack of the same item on another slot.

• Small UI and flow fixes around oxygen, prompts, and dialogue where things could feel inconsistent.

If you spot a bug or have an idea, we’re listening. See you underground.
