- Patch Title: Quality-of-Life Update
- Patch Release Date: April 15, 2024
The developer of Junkyard Truck has released a new update for the game on April 15, 2024. Here are the new things that you should expect to see or change on this new update. This information was curated directly from the official announcement on Steam.
The early game was more brutal than necessary. It can be tough saving your money for an upgrade, only to blow all four tires in one day and bankrupt yourself. This update tries to balances out a lot of early-game hangups, fixes some annoyances, and improves some of the visuals.
Adjustments:
-Optimized lighting in second home.
-Jiggs can now only recover the V8, i4, and 250 blocks if they have been detached from their vehicle, requiring you to discover/purchase them before being able to recover them.
-Cheap tires now spawn inside the junkyard.
-Payphone saves are now free.
-Increased payout for logs.
-Lowered initial coolant level when buying truck from junkyard.
-Increased the distance in which you can throw trash bags.
-Jake now pays more for his first few jobs.
-Slightly increased the amount of random junk spawns.
-Decreased the amount of rain.
-Increased and staggered the HP of stock tires that come with the Diamondback.
Additions:
-Overhauled several tree models so far-away scenery looks better.
-Added an oil dipstick to V8 block.
-Added an oil dipstick to i4 block.
-Several UI formatting issues.
Fixes:
-Fixed an issue where the Diamondback’s body would not get muddy in some situations.
-Fixed an issue where after completing a mission, a new mission would be labeled as tracked without showing a waypoint.
-Fixed a stamina issue when carrying a despawning heavy mission item to its destination.
-Fixed a head tracking issue with some NPCs.
-Fixed an issue where your money value could display fractions of a cent.
-Fixed refueling sound loop blip.
-Fixed and issue with poker player status not clearing from the previous round.
-Fixed a Holdem issue where you could bet past your stack size.
-Fixed a holdem issue where you could wind up with a negative cash roll.
-Fixed an issue where the spare tire mount couldn’t be detached.
-Fixed an issue where the spare tire would not detach(keep in mind this tire has one bolt holding it to the mount)
-Fixed an issue where the spare tire mount had a large unused collider area.
-Assorted small UI fixes.
