Out and About Patch 0.1.1 Temporarily Disables Fast Travel

Patch 0.1.1 for Out and About disables fast travel to fix infinite loading screens and resolves multiple quest blockers. It also restores missing items for players who quit before the first autosave.

A new patch is live for Out and About, bringing bug fixes for starting items, quest progression, and soft-locks. Fast travel is temporarily disabled while developers work on a reliable fix for infinite loading screens.

Progression and Quest Fixes

The update resolves multiple issues tied to quest completion and area access. Players can no longer reach Waveward Beach without finishing the associated community project. The patch fixes a blocker on Annie's Nettle Farm friendship quest for players who unlocked the location early, though saves already affected will be addressed in a later update. Typos, unintended NPC teleports, and out-of-bounds movement areas have also been addressed.

Starting Item and Save Fixes

Players who quit before reaching the first autosave in the opening quest no longer lose their starting items or storefront access. Character customization screens for these saves will also display correctly without forcing randomizer inputs. Quests finished by patch fixes now record proper completion times and display correctly in the journal.

World and Menu Additions

The main menu now includes links to the community Discord, patch notes, and known issues. The day transition video has been replaced with an in-game cinematic for better stability. Foragers will find missing Angel's Wings patches, and landscape issues around Granny's house and Ginkgo's rest have been cleaned up.

Why this patch matters

Patch 0.1.1 prioritizes game stability and fixes progression stoppers for early-game players, despite the temporary loss of fast travel.
