Palia Update 0.170 Patch Notes

Bug Fixes

Holy smokes! Our devs fixed over 100 known issues this patch cycle – that’s a LOT of bugs! Here are some worth celebrating listed below.

The Sushi Recipe can now be fished by everyone!— Thank you to everyone who reported this issue, and helped to get to the root cause.— To help you on your Sushi Recipe journey, we are giving all players affected by this bug 50 Glow Worms. They will soon be available through your in-game player inbox.
You can now complete the quest “Hunger Pains” by dropping the Blueberry Pie off in the expected location.
Sticky Smoke Bombs now work in multiplayer bug catching, so that everyone can loot the critter after dazing it!
You can now loot Star Quality Proudhorn Sernuk Antlers when hunting this elusive creature.
We can now confidently confirm that adding 99 fertilizers to all nine soil plots will no longer prevent you from interacting with them!
Players will no longer freeze when cooking the Sushi recipe.
The navigation tutorial no longer pops up every time you pass the Phoenix Shrine.
When placing the campfire, you will now hear the satisfying “whoosh!” we’ve come to know and love, and will see the lovely visual effects.Players no longer get stuck in an infinite loading screen when trying to leave their Housing Plot before talking to Hodari during the early game tutorials.
We have done an overall polish pass to many textures and environment details throughout Palia. This work is ongoing!

Top Known Issues

There are ongoing issues with Achievements, including darkened silhouettes for previously caught critters and rewards not being granted.

We definitely know how frustrating this is, and are working hard to get this complicated and interconnected issue solved as soon as possible. Thank you all for your patience as we investigate!

In some cases, players are experiencing their rooms merging or overlapping, and are unable to move them.

We will be releasing a fix for this in the next few updates. In the meantime, please proceed with caution as you place your room add-ons.

When completing the final puzzle in the Fire Temple, players might become stuck.

Relogging should resolve this issue, and you will be able to speak to Hassian to complete the quest.

Interacting with the Wardrobe while your character is stuck in the “missing textures & T-posing” appearance will cause your character to reset/change appearances permanently.

At the moment, the workaround for the “T-posing” issue is to simply relog into the game.
Please avoid interacting with the wardrobe, otherwise your character may change with no way to adjust certain settings at this time.

Finally: We know localization is not up to our quality bar, and are taking active steps to improve the experience in many languages. This is an ongoing process, and we’re sorry that we haven’t lived up to your expectations or our promise to you, our players.

Recently Added Known Issues

An increasing number of players are experiencing a crash when traveling between servers, with the error message “Client travel experienced failure. Please try again.” Some workarounds include:
- Force closing Palia from the Task Manager
- Removing all your furniture from storage and placing it on an unused plot. This is a rare fix, but can help on occasion.
All chat channels are toggled “on” by default in the Lobby.
There are two signs showing in the Housing Plot opening cinematic.
The quests “Brick by Brick” and “Plank by Plank” are appearing in players’ quest list, even if they’ve already completed them previously.
One workaround option is to re-craft and place the requested crafters. We are working on a longer term fix in the meantime!
When selecting an option in the Settings menu, the pulldown menu does not show “highlights” for your selection unless you are hovering right over the available text.
Rescinding an expired Request does not work.
These Requests will expire on their own after 2 hours.
Requested items from other players will not appear until you’ve changed servers.
When Housing Permissions are updated, all current visitors will receive the same notification about an individual’s permission changes.
The pants of the Disciple Set have unfinished textures. You may also notice some changes to your player’s skin texture when wearing this outfit.
Sometimes, when you place a crop in a Preserves Jar, it does not go into the intended Jar. It instead is placed in the Preserves Jar adjacent to the one you placed it in.

Around The World

Climbing is not always a smooth experience, especially around Pulsewater Plains and Hideaway Bluffs in Bahari Bay, and an area near Leafhopper Hills in Kilima Village. We also observe difficulty with climbing ivy. There is long-term work being done to make all of climbing around Palia a better time!
You will find the occasional invisible barrier, or are able to walk through seemingly solid objects.
Stray gliders can be found scattered throughout the world. Sadly, this is not a new and unusual foragable.
There are a collection of visual errors where items will “fade” in and out of view as you approach.
There are areas where you might fall through the world, or get stuck in an unexpected corner.
Typing /unstuck, or using the Return Home button on your map, will free you.
Grass is growing through some objects on the housing plot, like aquariums.
The Pavel Family site at the Rememberance Garden is currently invisible, but can still be interacted with.

Chat

The Whisper Chat defaults to yourself after exiting a Party.
Sometimes players can still send messages in Community chat after being kicked from the community.
There is no error message pop-up if you accidentally type an incorrect prompt in chat (for example, “/w” instead of “w/” to whisper).

Fishing

When fishing near Einar, players will have to cast out very far to avoid the dock despite the fishing indicator being blue.

Friends, Parties, & Communities

Sometimes, Friend Requests do not appear in the social panel.
Players suddenly exiting the game (using Alt+F4 or crashing, for example), may still appear active and in a party despite no longer being online.
When a player blocks another player, the blocker is not removed from the blockee’s Social Panel Server section.
Friend requests that have been denied will reappear upon relog.
When in the Lobby screen, the ESC key and O shortcuts to access the social panel does not bring up the settings menu or toggle the state of the social panel.
Player’s list of “Offline” friends is not minimized or collapsed by default.
When in the Lobby screen, the Friend Request notification does not appear when receiving a friend request.

Players do not receive a chat notification message when another player joins their neighborhood.
Players who are in the same community OR in the same server, who send each other friend requests, may see location information (such as where one player is currently located in the world) in the social panel.
Party invitations do not expire when a Party becomes full.

Housing & Furniture

There is some minor clipping from the environment through the furniture, such as grass and trees.
When crafted, pieces from the Emberborn set are not marked with the “crafted” checkmark.
When crafted, pieces from the Emberborn set are not placed in the “Furniture” tab of your inventory. They can still be found in the “All” tab.
The above two issues will be fixed in the next update!
If players have full inventories and they have space in their storage, they receive a “Wow, your inventory is full” error pop-up when trying to pick up their house, or housing add-ons.
This can be especially challenging when picking up your house while star quality fish and insects are placed, as these may accidentally be destroyed.
Having just one empty slot available in your inventory will allow you to move your house and housing add-ons.

Menus & Interface

The ESC key does not close the Repair Anvil as well as a few other menus. We are working on this for better consistency.

Photo Mode

The camera function cannot be rebound from the “K” key.
Party UI does not appear/disappear if a player takes a photo in-game before joining or leaving a party.

Quests & Villagers

The quest “Prove Your Devotion” is not accurately tracking the amount of Tree Seeds collected.
Some items are invisible when placed in your home, like Einar’s Shiny Pebble and Jina’s flowers.
The quest “Wares in Low Places” requires you to talk to Zeki in the Underground to complete the quest. You may see progress reset when you leave, so be sure to talk to Zeki before you go!
In Private spaces, NPCs are not standing on their expected target points, which could result in you catching Zeki jumping on his bed.
When completing the quest “Ancient Battery”, there is no text in the pop-up. There are no further steps you need to take!
Ashura is teleporting from his morning workout routine straight to his fishing location at 10:15am Palia Time.

Requests

Star quality items are no longer available to select to fulfill requests. This will prevent star quality items from being downgraded when your friend receives the item.
We will be making updates very soon to allow star quality items to be both sent and requested.

Wardrobe & Premium Store

Premium Store outfit thumbnails appear slightly greyed/muted in color until players hover over them.
When players are transitioned to the Wardrobe, or Dressing Room Menu, they see glimpses of a black screen with UI, terrain, and an empty wardrobe menu with ”No Matching Results”. It will return to the expected appearance shortly after.
Hair Dye Patterns do not display a pattern in the UI. The swatches appear as blank circles.
The Emote button has returned to the wardrobe! This button is not functional, and will disappear again in a future update.
When selecting the Pet tab, the Emotes menu appears instead. To access Pets, click Emotes, then Pets again.
