Big Ambitions Preview Build 3184 and 3188 Fix Quests and Save Loading

The latest Big Ambitions preview update fixes broken quest completions, save loading errors, and vehicle collision bugs across Industry City.

Hovgaard Games released preview build 3184 and 3188 for Big Ambitions, tackling quest blocks, save errors, and physics issues.

Quest and Tutorial Fixes

The Verify Warehouse Deliveries quest now completes properly. The Assign Purchasing Agent tutorial objective triggers reliably, and grabbing items without a hand truck during the tutorial now registers objectives correctly. Wholesale products now include a Hype boost to ensure the 80% tutorial quest can be finished.

Save and UI Improvements

Several saves that previously failed to load now function normally. The recruitment campaign message details which campaign has finished, and neighborhood overlays work correctly in Low Detail City Map mode. Using the middle mouse button to move the camera in Interior Designer no longer toggles auto-run, and the Fresh Start happiness boost removes properly.

Physics and World Adjustments

Parking lanes with delivery vans no longer regenerate every morning and launch player vehicles into the air. Weird collisions around the Industry City bridge ramp and when driving the Petrolls Fantom or Merseidi MGAGT are resolved. The update adds benches near the Kingdom Office, Mr. Scott Office Supplies, and City Workforce, alongside moving negative interest rate charges to Mondays at 8 AM.

Why this patch matters

These preview builds clear away progression blockers and physics bugs, making the EA 0.9 test phase more stable.
