Beta Update!

Hello everyone!With this smaller Beta update, we mainly focused on addressing reported bugs and making further fixes and adjustments based on players reports and feedback.Alongside these fixes and improvements, we have also added the new V2 versions of several existing maps. You can read more about them further down in this post.A number of adjustments have been made to vehicles and how they behave, but these changes are not their final state. We will continue tweaking and improving vehicles with future updates as we gather more feedback and continue development.At the same time, the team continues working on several other areas of the game, with more taking shape that we look forward to showing and talking about in upcoming Development News.As always, thank you to everyone taking part in the Beta and sending in bug reports, feedback, and suggestions!Remember that this is an optional Beta update and is still being tested and polished with the help of those who choose to take part in Beta testing and reporting. We also recommend to always do a backup before switching between game versions!When sending in bug reports, it is a huge help if you can describe the issue in as much detail as possible.Useful information includes:Your game version, which can be found on the main menu (for example, V0.35.5511)What happenedWhat appears to cause the issueSteps we can follow to reproduce itIf the issue involves a vehicle, which vehicle(s) are affectedIf the game crashes, please include the crash reportYour Discord/Steam name or email address so we can reach out if additional information is needed You can find the bug report link in the game menu or use the Bug Report Link.How to join the Beta branchRight-click Out of Ore in your Steam Library and select Properties.In the Properties menu, select Betas from the left sidebar.Select "beta - Latest beta for players" from the dropdown list.The Beta should begin downloading automatically.How to find savegames and crash reportsSavegames:%localappdata%\\OutOfOre\\Saved\\SaveGamesCrash reports:%localappdata%\\OutOfOre\\Saved\\CrashesNote:Copy the path above and paste it directly into the File Explorer address bar or the Windows search box.If you're unsure about %localappdata%, you can also find these files by navigating to:C:\\Users\\YourUsername\\AppData\\Local\\OutOfOre\\Saved\\New V2 MapsWe are introducing updated V2 versions of several existing maps to the Beta.The new V2 maps are: Iron Mountain PitMine TownCoal PlantQuarryForest QuarryCoal Country (DLC map)These versions bring some of the newer systems and improvements introduced with Moivaara to existing maps. This includes the new foliage, Land Purchase system, and prebuilt store locations around the maps.The new physical stores allow you to purchase vehicles, equipment, tools, ore, and other items at lower prices than purchasing remotely through the in-game store menu, rewarding players who choose to visit the store locations directly.The V2 versions now replace the previous versions in the Create New Game menu only. This means the change only applies when you create a new game.If you already have a savegame on an older version of one of these maps, you can continue loading and playing it as normal. Existing savegames are not converted or changed by the new V2 versions.This allows us to bring newer features to existing maps without affecting or changing the worlds players have already built.Currently Addressed Issues, Fixes & Improvements Added new V2 map versions: Iron Mountain Pit, Mine Town, Coal Plant, Quarry, Forest Quarry, and Coal Country (DLC map)Updated V2 map preview imagesAdded new controls for manual reverse gears (R2, R3)Fixed an issue where trucks could struggle to select the proper gear when reversingAdjusted Pickup steering angle speed for better turning in sharp cornersTweaked Baggers weight and tractionFixed an issue where the Bagger fill meter could remain overloadedFixed various visual issues with Baggers where the tracks could clip through their bodiesAdjusted Loader bucket precision when cutting into material and adjusted the cutting angleAdjusted Biggest Loaders speed when pushing materialTweaked Excavators interaction with dirtTweaked Excavators traction and weight Reduced the amount of material Loaders push upwards along mountainsides and wallsAdjusted Dozer blade precision when interacting with the groundFixed the Paver not placing asphalt properly on player-created roads and adjusted smoothnessFixed an issue where Rollers would compact the asphalt too much after pavingFixed the Tunneler front blade offset and collision being visibleFixed an issue where trucks could lose material while dumping depending on the dumping angleUpdated Moivaara foliage spawning when placing grass from the player inventoryFixed an issue where too many power cables could cause FPS dropsFixed Tailings not being purchasable in the storeFixed Wind Turbine blade directionsFixed the Watchtower roof offset and collisionUpdated the cinematic drone HUD, control hints, and control savingThat wraps up the changes for this Beta update! Let us know in the comments: What has been your favorite map so far and why?Jump in, check out the fixes and improvements, and give the new V2 maps a try. We hope you enjoy the update, and we will see you in the next one!Best Regards,Christian & The Team
