Iron Nest Patch #6 Deploys Save and Resume

Iron Nest: Heavy Turret Simulator Patch #6 adds session saving and addresses train soft locks, missing achievements, and visual bugs.

Iron Nest: Heavy Turret Simulator players can now step away from active operations. Patch #6 brings the requested Save & Resume system, letting operators store mission progress on exit and load back in later.

Save and Resume System

Missions save progress on exit so operators can continue from that exact point upon reloading. This feature underwent preliminary field tests with Discord community members prior to public deployment.

Mission and Achievement Fixes

The update resolves an Iron Road soft lock that occurred if a player hit the train with two shells at once. It also fixes unearned Steam gold medal achievements and makes the consecutive kills medal on Iron Road obtainable.

Visual and UI Corrections

Motion blur now applies correctly to all screen shake events regardless of toggle settings. A stray cat no longer blocks the view during station interactions, and missing Patreon Operator-tier names on guns, barrel text, and credits have been restored.

Why this patch matters

Patch #6 adds mid-mission saving while clearing out key progression blockers and display errors.
