Ostranauts Hotfix Resolves Missing AI Pledges

Ostranauts released a hotfix to fix a bug where newly-spawned characters lacked survival and reply pledges. The patch stops characters from attempting unnecessary pathfinding to pledge goals upon spawn.

Blue Bottle Games released a hotfix for Ostranauts to correct an AI bug introduced in patch 0.14.3.15. The error left newly-spawned characters without their pledges due to unnecessary pathfinding attempts.

Spawn Pathfinding Fix

The hotfix prevents newly-spawned characters from trying to pathfind to their pledge goals on spawn. This correction ensures new characters retain their survival and reply pledges correctly.

Save File Impact

Blue Bottle Games advised that any saves or new games created using version 0.14.3.15 contain permanently broken characters. Players should revert to a save from before patch 0.14.3.15.

Why this patch matters

This hotfix restores correct character creation, but affected players must roll back their saves to fix existing playthroughs.
