Another update has been released for the Switch version of Paleo Pines, and the patch notes were posted on the official Discord channel.
A big addition this time around is the ability to control how quickly time passes. Other improvements, adjustments, and fixes are also a part of the update. One such example is that out-of-memory crashes have been addressed with memory optimizations.
Here’s the full update rundown:
Paleo Pines update version 1.2.10 patch notes
- Added a setting to control how quickly time passes in game.
- Changed main menu lighting to daytime when entering character customization.
- Memory optimizations to fix out-of-memory crashes, especially with larger save files. THANK YOU ROB
- Fixed ‘invisible walls’ on the ranch after clearing certain types of debris or placing fenceposts.
- Fixed trees not blocking the placement of buildings (and dino poop) on the ranch. It did take us a while to realise the poop was under the trees.
- Fixed broken cooking tutorials when loading saves from before 1.1.18.
- Moved the blur setting to the Video category, and added a new ‘reduced’ setting as well as on/off.
- Freya now sells a cooking pot so you can cook on the ranch.
- Made steeds more obedient after dismounting. They’ll now always resume following if they were following before, and they won’t run away when dismounted on the ranch.
- Fixed broken follower icons for some Troodon patterns.
- Fixed tomato soup boost values.
- Increased the respawn chance of logs which drop forest wood.
- Harvest boosts now apply while mounted.
- Stamina now slowly regenerates when sitting.
- Changed the flute prompt layout used for controllers to make it more intuitive.
- Fixed biome tiles on the ranch not updating/erasing correctly when modifying pens.
- Biome tiles will no longer overwrite path tiles.
- Mari’s dino records are now sorted by species.
- All ‘weekday’ dinos are now ‘rare’. Previously most were ‘uncommon’ but one was ‘ultra rare’, which was incorrect.
- Dinos discovered via tracking will now have an alert (!) to make them easier to spot.
- Dino notes can no longer be so long the text becomes unreadably small.
- Fixed Lucky only accepting 0 star mangoes for the ‘cheer Lucky up with a mango’ task.
- Fixed Psittacosaurus getting stuck when interacting with cushions on the ranch.
- Fixed Coelophysis cheeks staying visible when they sleep in an upgraded sleeping patch.
- Fixed small dinos stealing extra seeds (one from each stack) from seed hubs. Sneaky little things.
- Fixed an error causing dinos to be able to spray water infinitely outside of the ranch.
- Fixed ranch storage filters behaving strangely after adding items to the ‘all’ category.
- Fixed Owynn’s legs moving strangely after skipping quickly through dialog when meeting him and Mari on day 1. Owynn did not like this happening one bit.
- Fixed Owynn being partially offscreen during a cutscene with Mari in Pebble Plaza. He was also angry about this – he likes to be fully seen.
- Fixed errors and lost items when sweeping a trough or hub with the broom.
- Fixed soil disappearing and/or duplicate seeds if you interrupted a small dino at work.
- Dino tilling fixes – hopefully you should no longer be able to escape the ranch!
- Fixed sometimes being unable to study desert dinos for a town board job.
- Fixed a crash when loading into the ranch if the entire thing is one huge pen.
- Improved performance when placing various objects on the ranch or picking them up.
- Fixed a place where the player could fall into Marlo’s creek and get stuck.
- Changed ‘yippee’ and ‘yawn’ SFX to the voice volume group.
- Fixed infinitely respawning tutorial saddle when loading older saves.
- Fixed distant LODs of the sandstone wall reverting to normal grey stone.
- Fixed an exploit to get infinite items from compost machines and windmills.
- Owynn’s first visit dialogue is now triggered by interaction with him at his house rather than when you get near. Owynn really causes a lot of problems.
- Changed Pippin’s dino companion icon in the journal to the Dimetrodon. Glad this is cleared up because that was confusing.
- Fixed the pear tree giving the player a pear rather than a sprout when dug up. Without a partridge in sight.
- Fixed various dino toys where the dino was unable to reach the interaction point.
- Fixed dino animations getting stuck if they were interrupted while interacting with a toy.
