Castle Flipper Patch v1.2 is LIVE!
Hello, Fellow Craftsmen and Craftswomen!
We’re happy to announce that Patch v1.2 is now LIVE! We have included many fixes, but other than that, there are also some improvements and changes that should make your flipping experience a little better. 🙂
Visible “snapping” points
When trying to place any object that requires snapping to another object, you will now see snapping points, which indicate where you can place it. A lot of you encountered problems when trying to place certain objects, such as a set of stairs in your house – we hope this addition will clear things up a little.
Weather effects stay outdoors
We have finally fixed the issue that has been bothering you for some time now. No longer will the rain make its way into your houses! Sure, maybe that won’t impact your gaming experience all that much, but your tenants definitely wouldn’t want to get drenched in their sleep. 😉
Object rotation
We have made some improvements to the rotation mechanic. Most noticeably, if you feel the need to move a piece of furniture rotated in a certain way, its position won’t reset to the default one. In other words, when you decide you want to move your wardrobe turned sideways a bit further to the back, when you pick it up, the wardrobe will still be turned sideways, exactly how it was before.
Similarly, when you want to place a few identical objects, once you rotate the first one and put it down, the next ones will be rotated in the same way from the get-go. You won’t need to rotate overy object individually, unless you actually need to do that.
A new set of stairs
Picture speaks for itself! While you may recognize the aesthetic, the idea was to provide you with a mirrored version of the spiral stairs, as some of you had a need for it.
