ThreeW has deployed patch v1.0.2 for Ore Factory Squad, targeting a variety of technical issues and quality-of-life adjustments following the game's recent launch. The update arrives as the title maintains a player base of over 7,500 concurrent users.

Quick Facts

  • Update Version: 1.0.2
  • Developer: threeW
  • Key Changes: Lobby connection fixes, collision repairs, and increased slot machine odds.

Bug Fixes and Technical Improvements

The latest patch focuses heavily on stability and multiplayer functionality. Players who previously encountered issues with the server browser or private lobbies being incorrectly marked as public should find these behaviors corrected. Additionally, the developers have addressed several crash-related issues and optimization stutters that were impacting performance.

For those navigating the game with a controller, the storage item list has been updated to scroll correctly. Other notable fixes include:

  • Forest Map: Resolved collision issues that prevented the placement of the Mining Lift.
  • Keybinding: Fixed a bug where assigning keys could inadvertently trigger tab switching or reset actions.
  • Deliveries: Corrected an issue that prevented players from calling contract deliveries from the Delivery Door during the night.
  • Localization: Addressed translation errors in Chinese, German, Russian, and French.

The developers also noted that resource distribution fixes on certain maps will only take effect when a property is purchased again.

Gameplay Adjustments

Beyond technical repairs, the team has introduced a few balance and UI changes. A new information tooltip has been added to the employee hiring interface, allowing players to view specific employee roles before making a hire. Furthermore, the odds for the in-game slot machines have been increased to improve player outcomes.

The team also closed a money exploit that was triggered by selling starter vehicles. While the developers continue to monitor player reports for future updates, they confirmed that a comprehensive roadmap covering new content and long-term improvements is currently in development and will be shared with the community shortly.
