Patch just broke card grid system

[Ming]

I just installed the patch that appeared just now, which doesnt seem to have patch notes or anything.

I had been playing 30 mins earlier, so was basically mid-game.

After the patch was applied, in the loaded save all my cards have gone haywire and jumped to completely different places.

And now, I cant get any cards to snap to the grid properly. The corners of the table now cant have cards on them. On trying to move cards to the 'new grid', cards are being placed overlapping, or offset from each other (vertically and horizontally), and basically its impossible to place cards so they are lined up normally.

I've tried using 1, 1/2, and 1/4 card settings, and all have the same issue. The underlying grid seems completely broken.


So, has anyone had this happen with a different patch? is there some way to fix this? or do we have to wait for a patch to fix things?

Edit:

On checking a bit more, the camera is now doing some weird 'snap to grid', and won't move smoothly or stay in the right place when you release with your mouse.

Yep. Cards are really hard to get in the right place for me as well.

[Cion Distan]

Yeah, my card snapping is screwed up. The camera is snapping weirdly. I can't turn card snapping off anymore? The option is gone. On top of all that, the boxes that cards auto go into cant be placed over cards that are already there. Cards can't be moved into the boxes, and the boxes keep placing cards over other cards.

Devs, please fix

[Hidijomy]

If the devs read this, please make camera snapping toggable and fix the grid like it was before (also please make that cards go back to where I last placed them, so I dont have to put them back in their order)

[Viperscho]

Yup, totally borked. Not sure what the patch was intended to fix, but it seems to have broken lots of other features.

[Klunt Saundreaux]

Sometimes they stack incorrectly, ie passion ends up underneath 2 health cards

[mcasey666]

my game is stuttery and unplayable after the patch

[The Mighty Ratslayer]

this is so strange, my friend and I are having these problems too. I assume the panning is intentional but yes please make it optional. and I can't place cards anywhere near each other or in any semblance of a grid. it's like OCD trigger simulator right now

LMAO OCD Sim xDDD

My friend gave up when his Study verb wasn't accepting any cards whatsoever

I had been playing this specific game for 5 days and it's laggy as hell too! The update just broke Everything my framerate is so low it's ridiculous!

[The Mighty Ratslayer]

I think I've put together that the shadow outline where the card is going to fall is the real problem. if I try to move it quickly it'll fly off to the other side of the board, usually near the top. but if I bring it to where it needs to go and hover for a moment the outline slowly makes its way to where it's supposed to be.

Chiming in that this patch has been frustrating for me as well. I don't use mods or anything and like others have come back to my save from yesterday to find the card table completely bonkers.

I'd really rather not reset this run or purge the save or anything drastic, I finally feel like I have a handle on the mechanics and this save is going really really well.

(ok I admit it, I inherited a book from the prior run that gave me a 14th rank lore for the precise aspect I was hoping to run with, do NOT want to give up on this luck, lmao)

edit- specific things that bug me

1) I can get cards to land reliably (thx Mighty Ratslayer's post) However it's always slower and more fiddly than the old system, thus takes more time. The card drop box is hard to see, and performs relative to the camera, not in an absolute (thus more predictable) fashion. I can't easily set up my (slightly organized) trash area off to the side for Notoriety and other short timer cards, because the rules for tossing them over there are different depending on where my camera is.
2) even when I have cards placed where I want them, the new version of the landing tray will ALWAYS override that memorized position, so for example when I Paint, at completion my Imagination, all my Passions, anything else that appears, all lands in that tray, instead of having 2/3 of them landing in memorized spots around the table.
3) when cards appear or are magnetized around the board, they move VERY FAST, this could be nice as a setting, but when I'm trying to sort out the flow of my game (as a relatively new player) or fixing all this broken stacking behavior, it's just a frustrating whirlwind where my Funds or something else inevitably ends up in the wrong place.

mee to, plus, even the unofficial Italian translation no longer works for me. :(

[SavagePune]

Same. Bummer, I was looking for an excuse to pick this game up again and also never sleep again.

[Fnordsensei]

Same here. If I pick a card up and try to put it down, it seems to go to a random location. It's really hard to get the camera to focus on what you're actually interested in. It seems to live its own life.

Also, is it me, or does it seem like things are more at a "tilt" than before? I find the text on dialogues somewhat more difficult to read when towards the top of the screen.
