Hope you're all doing well.

We, The Green Tile devs, are heading off for a long weekend rest, but just before that we have some fixes to make things better overall, specifically existing quest bugs.

We are looking into an overhaul of some of the quest handling to make sure that NPCs can't get stuck doing the wrong things, but that won't be in until the next patch.

If you get stuck due to quest issues over the weekend, our Discord server[discord.gg] and a our pinned post in our Steam Discussions has some helpful solutions to this problem.

Have a great time in Locomoto and enjoy your Easter if you celebrate it!
