Steam Patch Notes
Official update history
This small patch is meant to address high severity issues as reported by the community. While we understand there are more issues than this patch fixes, we wanted to get something out before the holiday as fast as possible.
Ensure you have the correct build number on the main menu. You must complete the update before playing.
Steam: 1.6.5.218041 \[net.18.10.8.8ba6da] to 1.6.6.218163 \[net.18.10.8.8ba6da]
Dedicated Servers: 1.6.5.218038 \[net.18.10.8.8ba6da] to 1.6.6.218164 \[net.18.10.8.8ba6da]
Fixes in this release
Fixed an issue where duplicate NPC dwarves would appear in their original spawn location in the world after being dismissed from a delving. This would cause several issues including performance problems and unusable NPC recruits
Improved various performance issues that caused framerates to be low in many instances caused by duplicate citizen dwarves
Improved issues that caused loading walls between areas to persist for long periods of time
Fixed an issue where using a mapstone to fast travel would sometimes cause long loading times
Fixed a PS5 issue where Gulrun’s textures wouldn’t properly load, causing the beast to appear white, and devoid of color
Note: In order to improve the performance drops seen in the last release, we made a difficult decision to roll back some of the improvements to NPC pathing. This means players will again see some previously fixed issues with NPC’s choice of path or falling through floors. We believe these will still be more rare than before but the trade off was the right decision.
Dedicated Server users, please remember to always restart your server after a patch!

General Bug Fixes
Additional work to improve the finding of the Fourth Fragment of Durin’s Axe in Campaign.
Fixed a crash when the host has the Orc Hunter DLC and has built the Troll Hide furniture, but at least one joining player does not own the DLC.
Fixed a crash in rare instances when a player joins a host game.
Updated non-english text that was incorrectly listing the Beorn’s Lodge DLC content instead of the Orc Hunter DLC content.
Removed wood loot that was incorrectly dropping when attacking enemies
Known Issue to be addressed in a future patch: Ironwood is still incorrectly dropping when attacking enemies. Get that free ironwood while you can.

Here are the updates:
- We have fixed an issue in large player construction bases where enemies could spawn mid-air and descend in the middle of a base. Sieges should occur more naturally now.
- There was an issue where player planted trees would revert to a previous growth stage if lighting conditions changed. After a save/load, this could leave the trees in a broken state. The problem has been resolved.
- Finally, we have resolved an older issue where customized dwarf physique like shoulders, waist, chest, belly adjustments would revert to default settings after equipping armor. This bug became more prevalent with the introduction of Cosmetic armor through the Wardrobe. Your chosen Dwarf body types should remain now!

Greetings!
This is a smaller patch to address issues that were reported in version 1.3.3. Thank you to everyone who reported issues, shared saves and provided feedback. This has helped us in resolving issues and getting this patch out to you asap.
Please ensure you have the correct build number on the main menu before playing. You must complete the update before playing. Steam: 1.3.4.166483 [net.8.4.5.6.eaaa2]
All platforms update from version 1.3.3 to 1.3.4. Here are the fixes:
Building and Stability
- This patch addresses cases where parts of large player construction would be destroyed after saving and loading.
- We have also fixed the cause of some spontaneous destruction of building pieces.
- We have improved and tested stability in typical building scenarios and in large saves provided by the community. However, it is worth noting that the more complex constructions do stress the limits of the system and may still have unexpected results.
- We will continue to tackle those issues as they occur. Please keep sending those support tickets and save files! They were instrumental in helping us with this round of fixes.
Gameplay Fixes
- We have fixed a bug where players might encounter an infinite load when attempting to fast travel.
- Sieges have been fixed and re-tuned and should not occur with the same frequency, nor should they be triggered as often when players fast travel.
- Fixed the issue affecting the Ink Grinder’s ability to dye Armor
- Fixed rare issue where Armor Stands built with Build-lore buff providing free construction would not allow any Armor to be placed in them.
Known Issues
The team continues to investigate solutions for known issues listed in Patch 1.3.3.
