Known Quirks & Issues

- You may see weird shadows when the camera hits the edge of the table from a particular angle
- The screen may briefly flicker black when recruiting new workers to your factory
- We’ve noted a rare case where a sabotage in progress can get stuck in the UI if the opponent goes bankrupt while the sabotage is on the way
- Rare cases of workers ignoring walls, related to the portal system
- Sabotage Opportunities may get picked up by a standard trucker, rather than the opponent-specific variant
- There’s something wrong with the “Stool” product which may make it impossible to unlock
- Hints for the Sabotage system may not always trigger properly
- Saving and loading during the first Bladh contract may cause the sabotage feature to not unlock properly (a backup should trigger on day 11 though)
- The display effect that looks like scanlines may start acting up over time - a temporary workaround for this is to reset the scene (simply save then load)
