- Patch Title: Patch details for v0.2.6
- Patch Release Date: April 2, 2024
The developer of AutoForge has released a new update for the game on April 2, 2024. Here are the new things that you should expect to see or change on this new update. This information was curated directly from the official announcement on Steam.
Patch incoming with some major improvements to the fluid system as well as many important issues resolved and even some bonus changes. Once again, thank you to everyone for your patience and diligence in reporting problems.
NOTE: Any existing fluid networks may need to be picked up and placed back down to work properly to get it out of a broken state from earlier versions.
I am going to continue streaming development working on AutoForge so if that’s something you would like to see you can join my Twitch channel at https://www.twitch.tv/jmcmorris.
