The House Always Wins — Patch 1.1.4

This update brings highly requested quality-of-life additions like a toggle sprint option, updates to Blackjack rules realism, fixes to item and clothing rendering, improved handyman routines, and targeted performance and mesh optimizations.

New Features

  • Toggle Sprint Added: You can now switch between holding or toggling your sprint key inside the settings menu!

Blackjack Update

  • Fix an issue where the handyman could accidentally block the repair station.
  • Fix staircase pathfinding to strictly prevent NPCs from walking on awkward outer edges.
  • Fix a soft-lock where players could get permanently stuck in a security camera view if they opened the escape menu at the exact same parallel moment.
  • Fix a system bug that was causing random game events to duplicate uncontrollably.
  • Fix Blackjack table mechanics with minor gameplay edits and back-end logic corrections.
  • Fix the problem when visitors could take items from Bar shelves from second floor.
