My itch.io app says the version is up to date but when I open the game it's still on version 0.8.1
it opened to the 0.8.2 version once i think but it won't do it again.

Radial action menu doesn't work with the new workstation.
Kel jumpscares staring if you look up while crouching or when climbing a ladder.
Discbox swaps model to the old one when sending a drone.
Rain goes through the base roof (but doesn't go through the roof of the forest cabin, so its collision box can be copipasted to the base).
The kitchen knife can't lay still on the table, but it can on the floor.
Bug.
The visible playermodel is effectively a placeholder right now until we get proper animations and a fixed one.
The current drive box model is temporary until the next update gives it a real model, this is probably just a small oversight that doesn't really matter.
"Unfixable at this time".
Not sure what you mean by that.
We are loving this game! We just had our first bad sun event, and when we walked outside it forced us to look at it but nothing else would happen. We would have to look straight down or our camera would be dragged to stare at the sun. I'm not sure if that is a normal event or if damage was supposed to occur and didn't, I just wanted to let it be known! We are using the latest version that was uploaded 11 days ago
You need a screwdriver and a wrench, which you can find on the workbench in the garage.
I've bought Kerfur, only for it to dash somewhere never to be seen again. After remembering about him, I checked his camera - he was stuck somewhere underwater. I couldn't get him out using camera controls of the what I assumed to be river, as he couldn't climb up underwater ground. I tried searching for him, but never found him. I noticed on the radar that there was something in the river on the edge of the map, but still couldn't find him. After I returned, I noticed that the blimp on the radar is no longer there.
Brand new Kerfur proceeded to drown himself, with his body never found :(
This can happen due to an old bug when this exact slot can't decide whether it has a drive in it or not (you might have noticed how you can't save a signal on an inserted drive after processing). Also, drives with a copy of a signals have these yellow lights (you can make a copy by saving a signal on a computer). Not sure why this happens, but it's harmless
I seem to have a very strange bug or two. I think it happens when I unpack a new version of the game, #1, when I play a new update, I launch it from the folder I unpacked it from, play a few days in-game (for this one save, it's day 5) I then save, quit the game to go to bed or something, next day and onwards, it opens from the itch.io client, the save is gone and I start the new update from day 1 again, from there it does save properly, and currently it is day 15, it seems I have 2 versions of the same build, if one is launched from Itch.io, it seems to be the one where I have progressed the most (which has two 0.8.1 build saves in there too which don't seem to have a date for when it was created, saying 0001.01.01-00.00) , if I launch it via the folder it is in (For me, it is C:\Users\(MyUsername)\AppData\Roaming\itch\apps\votv\pa0082_0012\pa0082_0012\WindowsNoEditor that is where the .exe is for the game) it will have the previous save that I first created (and there seems to be a 0.8.1 build save in there as well as a 0.7.0 build too, both are also dated 0001.01.01-00.00), I figured this out today while trying to run the game as an admin, doing so opens the game without my most recent save (the Day 5 save), while opening it via itch.io (anytime after I reopen the game a 2nd time after a new update and then) will bring me to my most recent save and doesn't seem to have an option to run as admin, I figured this all out solely to try and get some textures to work for custom rugs, pictures, posters and videos for the TV. I don't want to delete and uninstall everything just to try and get an absolutely clean reinstall, as I seem to have lost my day 45 save somehow, (either that or it's on the outdated 0.8.1 build of the game) so.... if anyone can understand whatever is happening with me right now, I'll gladly accept some help, if I have to stick with it as it is and not be able to use or view the custom stuff, that's ok, but I was looking forward to try and get some custom stuff working. Any help is appreciated, if I can find where the most recent version of the game (the one where my saves are still there, as both seem, to say "Pre-Alpha 0.8.2") and move them to the same place to where they need to be to work properly, run as admin correctly and show all my save files in one place, then I will be pretty happy.
If it's any help, I found the folder with the older (original) saves with little progress, so I just need to find the folder with the newer saves in them (and possibly the version of the game that opens with them) and see if I can move things around (probably into the original folder) to get them all to show up and work, as opening the .exe file directly seems to only load the older and less progressed save files, opening it through the client app gives me the more recent and more progressed saves.
Edit: running the game as an administrator also only gives me the version with the older saves, less progressed saves, it's like there's a secret folder with the higher progressed saves somewhere on the computer that I cannot find, another thing I have noticed is that sandbox is greyed out and that Solar isn't an option on there, despite it being 0.8.2 also, it keeps saying the file directory is in the same place but I cannot see how that is possible when opening it in two different ways gives two different possibilities on the menu while it remains as the same 0.8.2 build.... it is insanely confusing to me.
Is the save button lit up green? If not then the signal isn't done downloading. The signal needs to be fully downloaded and detected. The download percent is below your energy consumption and the detected percent is in the video/picture of the object you scanned. If you have updated one more than the other they can finish at different times. I do also recall a glitch i've had where my downloading console stopped working and i had to reload.
softlock bug: Rozital Scouts on day 33 do not leave, it passed more than in-game day and they are still there, iam unable to sleep or do anything basically because of them, tried to reload the save 5 times, they bug every time, they just stand around base and dont go anywhere else
possible solution: to activate winter mode, then the one who gets trapped in water do leave, btw that one rozital also is trapped in same placed where kerfus and kerfus-0 is stuck underwater
Hello! when running the game in my monitors native 1440p res certain light sources most notably the over head ceiling lights in the main room of the base flicker.
The only solution i was able to find was running the game at 1080p res. Has anyone encountered this? is there as setting i can change to stop this other than resetting the res to 1080.
I want to run it at 1440p so i have an easier time alt tabbing between programs while using thew game. Also the issue doesn't seem to show up when recording on OBS if that helps diagnose the issue.
