Smithy Bug
I'm encountering a bug where, whenever I go to put something into the smithy, on the first try it'll always put the first sheet available. As it is, I now have many more brass sheets than I know what to do with, since the only way to get out of the action is to complete it. Is there any way to fix this bug?

I'm having the same issue. Did you manage to fix it somehow?

nah, just organized my time so that i'd do all the smithy stuff at once when I could and have to deal with it less. It usually stopped being an issue after the first time, so I just ended up with a ton of bronze plate. The reset would happen after enough time had passed (usually a day-to-night switch?) or if I visited an island. given that it's a very late game addition, it's not a huge issue; I didn't even bother upgrading my smithy!

also you can leave the smithy with something you want in the forge, so that the next thing you do in there can be something useful. and then if you want to do more than that, you'll have to deal with the extra bronze, but that's usually just like. one round
Hello, was wondering what happens when you interact with the smithy, do you open the door interact with the smithy with e and it forces you to make a brass?

hello! You enter the smithy, interact with the door, it'll pop out the blended metal and then you'll need to hit it with your everlight hammer a ton. watch it for color changes, the same way you do when fishing. hope that helps!

I’m having the same issue and it’s super annoying. Whenever I interact with the smithy I don't get the menu to choose from instead it immediately makes a brass sheet. Mostly until I’m out of one of the materials. Or I have a ton of luck and get to make something I actually need that contains copper or zinc…

This is still an issue. When I click on the door, it'll just automatically makes brass, skips the selection. I didn't even know there was a selection screen until I made 5 brass sheets. It's confusing and annoying.

If you don't mind, I have a few questions to help identify the issue. Does it still happens after rebooting the game? If yes, with what type of controller are you playing (keyboard or a specific gamepad?).

Yes, it still happens after rebooting. I tried with an PS4 controller second gen connected via USB and with keyboard. The bug occurs with both all the time.

Could send the files SF_SAVE_GAME0.sav and Player.log from the folder

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Thunder Lotus Games\Spiritfarer

to alex@thunderlotusgames.com? I'll check what is wrong.

Thank you! When I load up the save on my computer everything is fine. This would lead me to think the problem might be an edge case caused by your setup. Could you also send me the file SAVE_OPTIONS.sav from the same folder? Also, in what language are you playing and what is your FPS?

Sent it to you. I'm playing in English and according to steam I'm getting around 10-20 FPS? This seems very low but the game is running smoothly.

I haven't received the file yet, it's probably getting scanned? It's possible the issue is caused by the low FPS. Are you by any chance on a laptop with a dedicated GPU (Nvidia or AMD), it seems to be using the intel GPU. If this is the case you'd get higher framerate by specifying the game should run with the dedicated GPU.

If you don't have a dedicated GPU, you could lower the resolution in the option to increase the FPS and see if this was causing the issue. I'll report back once I get to test your option file.

Yeah, I'm on my Laptop and using the intel GPU 'cause I had to deactivate my dedicated GPU due to other problems I'm having with the machine (thanks MS for effing up your flagship and abandoning your community *coughcough*).

I will test it again on my tower when I'm back home.

But thanks for your response and effort! :)
