Starting at 04:00 PT, Once Human is rolling out another round of fixes for version 3.1.1, on October 30. The developers note that the exact completion time may vary. This is the latest in a steady run of small updates since version 3.1.1 arrived, after earlier fixes on October 26, 27 and 29 that mostly targeted the Isles of Abyss and its Voyager ships.
This batch is short, with four entries, but two of them matter for anyone spending time on the water, and one brings a useful resource change for everyone.
Boat and mount fixes
Boats keep causing trouble in this update cycle, and this time it’s the auto-repair facilities. Once a boat had taken damage, players sometimes couldn’t interact with these facilities as expected, which is a problem when they exist to fix that damage. That interaction should now work as intended.
Mobile players also get a fix for the Bay Crocodile. Dismounting it while on the water surface could make the Jump button disappear from the screen. That bug has been addressed.
Wish Bazaar formula and Precision Gear Sets
Some players who bought the Smiling Pumpkin Lantern furniture from the Wish Bazaar didn’t receive the formula that should come with it. The purchase now grants the formula correctly. If you already bought the lantern and ended up without it, you don’t need to do anything: the developers will send Formula: Smiling Pumpkin Lantern through in-game mail within 3 business days, so keep an eye on your mailbox.
The last change will likely be the most noticeable during regular play. The amount of Precision Gear Set players can obtain in the wilderness has been increased. The patch notes don’t say by how much, but players who have been running short on this material while building or crafting should find it a bit easier to collect.
Summary of the October 30 changes
- Fixed the Jump button disappearing on mobile after dismounting a Bay Crocodile on the water surface.
- Fixed players sometimes being unable to interact with damaged boat auto-repair facilities.
- Fixed the Smiling Pumpkin Lantern not granting its formula, with the formula mailed to existing buyers within 3 business days.
- Increased how much Precision Gear Set can be obtained in the wilderness.
