Hotfix 9.7: Major Fixes for Pets, NPCs & Stability

I’ve been listening closely to your feedback on Discord and in the Steam Discussions bug reports, and have been working hard to clean up even more bugs. This hotfix brings major improvements to pets, NPC interactions, and overall game stability. Thank you for helping make Cornucopia better!

Pets & Animals

• Fixed old pets being unable to level up skills due to corrupted EXP data from a previous bug. Skill progression now uses a fair linear curve instead of an impossible exponential one.

• Fixed pet race speed persisting into training mode after completing a race.

• Fixed pets stopping EXP gain when the game window loses focus.

• Fixed an infinite training glitch that allowed unlimited pet training sessions per day.

• Fixed vase hazard bombs incorrectly awarding the player combat EXP.

Stability & Saves

• Fixed an item duplication glitch where overflow items sent to the storage shed would multiply by 1-3 extra.

• Fixed stacked items on furniture (e.g., toaster on phone) vanishing after save/reload. Now supports unlimited stacking depth.

• Fixed store merchandise rerolling every time you saved and reloaded. Shops now stay consistent throughout the day.

NPCs & Dialog

• Fixed blank dialog boxes appearing when talking to NPCs, especially when Stanley was the first NPC spoken to on a new game.

• Fixed NPCs sometimes repeating the previous NPC's dialog lines.

• Fixed cutscene lines from previous events bleeding into the next event during gemstone quests.

• Fixed NPC dialog being openable while the pet naming keyboard was active.

• Fixed Magnus's performance cutscene ending prematurely before the post-performance dialog could play.

Festivals

• Fixed 19 NPCs saying Fishing Festival and Fireworks lines during the Cherry Blossom Festival instead of cherry blossom dialog.

• Fixed Cherry Blossom Festival and Spring Planting Festival playing each other's cutscenes.

• Fixed Cow Festival cutscene playing the wrong dialog.

Crafting & Fixtures

• Fixed Furnace and Saw not showing how many items are queued in their tooltips.

UI & Gameplay

• Fixed upgraded tools (Iron, Orichalcum) sorting to the wrong end of inventory.

• Fixed resources from mining and chopping sometimes landing out of bounds near map edges.

• Fixed auction items that sell for nothing silently destroying the item with no notification. Items are now returned to the player.

Localization

• Fixed 776 Steam achievement entries across 8 languages displaying in the wrong language.

Lots of Love,

David ❤️

Important Note: I tried fixing these issues, but they were not comprehensively tested, so some may still persist. If you encounter any bugs, please report them so I can fix them ASAP.
