Out and About Patch 0.1.6 introduces Berta the Highland Cow as a rideable mount alongside new app keybindings and menu controls. The update also adds footstep audio to grassland fences and fixes UI bugs.
Out and About receives Patch 0.1.6, introducing a new animal mount and expanding control options for menus and applications. The update is live now.
New Mount and Quests
Berta the Highland Cow joins the game as a ridable mount. Berta quest triggers the day after completing Barbara quest titled Forest Master Survey. Players who already finished this prerequisite will see the new quest trigger immediately upon loading their save.
Interface and Controls
Players can now use dedicated keybindings to open the Our Porto app (O), Friendships app (F), Recipe Book (K), and Calendar app (L). The phone keybinding shifts from F to P, and pop-up menus in Our Porto and the Field Guide can now be closed using the same button used to open them. The first controls tutorial now includes explicit free-roam details.
Environment and Audio Fixes
Wood fences in grasslands now generate proper footstep audio when walked across. Visual fixes resolve bunting on ruins flickering back and forth with incorrect coloring, invisible wall collisions in the town centre, and missing Angel Wings translations.
Why this patch matters
Patch 0.1.6 delivers quality-of-life improvements through direct app keybinds and menu shortcuts while expanding traversal options with Berta the Highland Cow.
