New Updates v0.4.27: Renting Vehicle Improvements, Livestock Visuals, and More

Hi everyone! 👋

We have just released a new update for Cropia! Your feedback over the past weeks has been incredibly helpful, and this version focuses on refining several systems based on what you shared. This update brings improvements to the Renting Vehicle system, enhanced livestock visuals, and a variety of quality of life changes to make your adventure in Cropia smoother and more enjoyable.

Here is what is new in this update:

1. Renting Vehicle Improvements

Several updates have been made to make vehicle renting more convenient and easier to manage.

🚜 Renting Vehicles will remain in their last position on the next day as long as they are not submerged. You still need to pay the daily rent, but this allows you to park the vehicle near your home and continue using it the following day without returning to the store.

🚜 A new Reset Vehicle request is now available by interacting with the table counter inside the Vehicle Store. This will return your rented vehicle to the front of the store for a small fee.

🚜 Your vehicle now appears on the map so you will not lose track of where you parked it.

🚜 A new Vehicle Steering option has been added. This setting allows you to choose whether or not to enable camera steering using the mouse. By default, this option is enabled, but you can easily adjust it in the settings menu to suit your preference.

2. Livestock Visual Updates

🐑 Sheep are now fluffier and more visually expressive, making it easier to see when they are ready for shearing.

🐄 Animals that produce harvestable products such as wool or milk will now display a product icon when they are ready to be collected.

Improvements

1. Improved Interaction Rules with Employees inside Animal Pens

   We have fixed an issue where the player could get stuck when performing tasks together with an employee. If an employee is working inside an animal pen, such as harvesting eggs, the player can only perform different tasks in the same pen, for example refilling the feeding station.

   

2. Storage Upgrade Information

   When interacting with a locked storage slot, the game now displays information about where storage upgrades can be purchased.

   

3. Updated Refrigerator Storage List

   The list of items that can be stored in the refrigerator has been updated to reflect the correct items.

4. Fixed Player Orientation in Buildings

   The player’s facing direction is now correct when entering buildings. The previous issue where the player faced away from the door has been resolved.

Thank you so much for being part of Cropia's journey. We truly appreciate every feedback, report, and suggestion from the community.
