Huge Bug Fix Beta Available Now!

[Sanitar]

Thank you. I didn't think it would be such a gift.

[Thieverpedia]

As someone who still binges DS in short bursts, this post made my day. So many good fixes! But alas, vines regrowing in ruins the instant you exit them doesn't seem to be on the list. Many of us have gotten stuck that way.

But on a side note, I am an avid Beefalo tamer. I'm going to love being able to use my ornery beefalo's attack damage again. Onwards, Shia LeBoof!

Cause while DST is the one getting content upgrades, solo DS still has its own exclusive stuff (like story mode and the DLCs) so its nice to just give them a big QOL addressing the biggest bugs and glitches and calling it a day.

Don't gotta add anything new, but its still nice to get rid of major flaws for anyone who wants to dip their toes into that experience again. "Abandoning" it as bugless as possible is ideal

I mean yeah, but 2 years later?

I-umm-erm...

 

Why?

 

Like, Bug fixes! Great! Love them. But I think most of the people here where under the impression that Don't Starve was done and dusted. Feels really weird to come back and do a metric butt ton of bug fixes like this.

I Hope objects smolder first like in dst instead of the instant fire that consumes forests in like 60 seconds lol.

Flup can now respawn correctly (SW).

Greatness indeed.

[Frosty_Mentos]

I can't lie, this is very extremely unusual to be getting an update on that game still. I thought overall you're done with singleplayer and DST's now the new show.

While this is a post filled with a lot of confusion as to why would you return to it, then again I assume there was some spare time to invest and upkeep the base game's overall quality.

But, yea. I'm surprised. Good work! I don't expect more new content in it but hoping it'll be a more stable and enjoyable experience when the mood's right to play again.

[M0ka]

Whoa! I have to say that I had no hope at all that updates and/or hot/bug fixes were ever coming to the single player games again! Thanks a lot, Klei. All the changes were much needed and will be greatly appreciated!

[HalfEnder776]

Has wheeler going invisible when shooting on boats been fixed?

Also sorta a "half" bug, The way ballphin houses are set for a ballphin is really messy they tend to just end up all living in the same house...

[O Prea]

Fantastic, thanks klei!

Please focus on bugs and feedback for this beta for now. We will be looking at additional feedback after this beta for an additional QOL update in the future and we'll update with more details about that in the future.

Have fun!

Maybe I'm being optimistic but I hope the baby oxen are rescued from cut content. 

I cant (unfortunately) focus on just the bugs because... well console. :v

The following characters will no longer be invisible on Maxwell's throne: Woodie, Wagstaff, Wheeler, Webber and Wigfrid (ALL).

 

Awe could you at least revert this change for wagstaff? I liked the idea that he was able to escape because he wasn't really on the throne to begin with. 

(Plus i thought it was intentional)

[2Flow2]

WOAH! Updates to the single player game??? That's epic! I thought Klei had forgotten about the game!

[JoeW]

I wrote something

Hmmm. Me thinks that they might be planning something... Come to think of it, we are running up on the 10 year anniversary for Don't Starve's official release.

There are no current plans for new DS content. We do expect some additional bug fixes and there is at least one QOL update planned along with adjustments or changes based on feedback. 

I mentioned in the 2021 roadmap that we would be working to fix up the original DS ports and this is more or less a continued extension of that effort.

[Evelo]

I love Klei.
I really hope to work there one day.

• Tamed beefalo fixes:
  • Fixes many actions that made the character invisible and frozen (ALL).
  • Weather pain and Lazy Explorer cast animations will no longer use beefalo's attack animation (ALL).
  • Prevents the player from remounting right after being thrown away (ALL).
  • The player will perform the sneeze, poison and cold animations properly (ALL).
  • The height of the player's quotes is adjusted with its height (ALL).
  • Meele attacks no longer use the equipped weapon (durability and damage) (ALL).

I can finally rest in peace....

Thank you so much for this Klei! 

Does we still get stuck in the Void if we go to caves wile being mounted in a Beefalo?

[Scrumch]

Amazing! Do you think it'll be possible to back-port all of the HD assets from DST? Or am I pushing my luck? XD

[HalfEnder776]

Time for me to suffer, going through Island Adventures code and updating it....

Oh yah btw theres a bug where krissures will erupt forever. It happens in IA too, I don't see it in the changelog so I guess it hasn't been fixed yet (fix it for us please)

[Frosty_Mentos]

Could we have at least one building added to the game? As a setpiece that would generate in Hamlet.

Talking about the Thulecite shop and vendor, since they sort of exists. Would love it as a secret shop and something to potentially build if it's possible. Ancient magic is so are in the game when resources are limited sometimes.

[WhackE]

Wait so this is a enormous bug fix patch for Singleplayer with no new content from DST? LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! This is what i've been waiting that's what this is all about!

Flups finally getting fixed, incredible day.

[Mike23Ua]

These are all mostly nice- but there is one very specific thing I must ask about.

the above super long bug fix/changes posts states that deployables (crockpot, Campfire, Science Machine) will no longer be placeable inside a building interior, But Does this Include Walani’s Surfboards??

(neatly propped against my stuffs cabinet)

[HalfEnder776]

Thats just the surfboard item, the deployed surfboard is the boat you sail on. So your fine
