Patch Notes - Build 9.1.224300

Gameplay Updates

• Added a new state "Exhausted" to the Performance Staff after they've completed a Performance.

  • Previously there was just a cooldown on the stage which resolved staff moving around the museum but also trying to be on the stage, and it was unclear as to why some staff could not be reassigned. Instead we've made it visible with a status effect.

• Rebalanced Hogsport to use Rough Seas event and swapped out injury counter so that it's not a First Aid Kit

• Rebalanced Reflective Artist so it can be countered with Happy Thoughts instead.

• Made Mixed Emotion correctly give Confused emotion in Studio Room setup

• Balance pass on POI objectives

  • We've removed "Buy X" subgoals

• Balance pass on Toll Bridge drop table chances

• Balance pass on the starting qualifications

• Rebalanced Original Art Buzz Bonuses so that they're simpler to achieve

• Rebalanced the XP gained from Performing studio room projects (Increased!)

• Entertainer Trait has been added to Art staff

• Changed the Pre-requisites for the following POIs:

  • Sweaty Palms - it requires to have 3D art unlocked

  • Hogsport - now requires to have a performance stage Workshop Project

Fixes:

• Fixed Robo staff not installing mods (We hope!)

• Fixed an issue where Pebberley Ruins "Camping Spot" was starting active and then getting countered

• Fixed an issue for the Partition Door not being purchasable with Kudosh in Career Mode

• Fixed Spectrum of Light and Dark on incorrect staff and POIs

• Fixed Art POIs to display more varied Art specific Dilemmas

• Fixed Foundation filtering so there is now themes available

• Fixed an issue with Underlook Hotel so it explains better why the POI could not be unlocked

• Fixed icons for dynamic art in multiple locations

• Fixed some placeholder icons

• Localisation and text fixes

• Optimisation pass

Thanks again to everyone who's reported issues to us, and we sincerely appreciate your patience while we continue to improve the game.

Happy curating!
