Spotted a mysterious motionless dark orb in the sky way off the north edge of the map. Thought I'd discovered some new entity or event; hopped the fence to go take a closer look.
Turns out if one of the stroggified pigs explodes violently enough, its goo can reach the invisible boundary wall and stick there. With no way to climb up to it or gravity gun it down, it's just kind of glued to the sky forever.
Not really an actual bug, just the physics engine being the physics engine, probably got blasted up there by an Ariral firing at a nearby boar. You can climb up there with a hook and bring it down if you don't want it.
Also, unrelated to the rest of this, but how did you get those clearer item icons?
@Bearsjunior the icons are actually just 64x64 jpegs renamed to ".vimg" stored in the folder " C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\VotV\Assets\icons ". I got tired of squinting at the little indistinct grayish blobs the game renders for most items so basically I just screenshotted a bunch of the more commonly used tools in front of a chromakey curtain and made new icons in gimp. Gimme a sec, i'll throw em up on google drive if itch lets us post links to that:

It's intentional, sometimes things can fall under the base so this is a way to get stuff from under the base plus it's got a useless secret note somewhere i think.
You were warned not to look in the locker. You got the consequences of your curiosity.
How you feel doesn't matter here. Only your curiosity.
Not really a bug; the transformers aren’t disabled or made easier in Ambience mode, and you still have to manage them just as much as you would normally.
If they are going down twice in an in-game day, it might be because of your power consumption; power some functions off using the breaker in the basement or the Components tab in the computer when not needed.
The following list is what each component controls, alongside it’s power consumption percentage.
another one while im at it, the frame rate is TANKING. i used to have my base decorated in so many items it was honestly atrocious, and i'd average around 60fps save for small drops with events. now, even with no fancy textured objects, and no 3d printed objects or custom ones for that matter, im averaging around 20-30 fps in the base around all my stuff.
i found an area where i can no-clip under the base. its to the left of the front door and mailbox. its a little dark triangle to the right of the window. i can walk around underneath the entire base.
