0.9 Kerf-O Not taking my floppy

So I had just recently got Kerf - O for the first time on 0.8.2 and so I decided to bring it over to the new game through the mailbox.  Im not sure if this is a manufactured bug to prevent people from bringing it over from the old save, I dont know if the recipe changed or if its become harder to get, and so its been intentionally bugged to prevent one from bringing it over or not. To my understanding that is not entirely beyond the realm of possibility.

However! If that is not the case, then there is an issue where Kerfur - Omega will not hold the floppy drive you give it, and instead will throw it away mere moments after it takes off to get reports.

Additionally, the "fix transformers" functionality might also be broken, as when I tried to see if it would do anything, I didnt get any kind of errors, where previously I believe it would say could not find or no transformers broken or something. Not 100% sure on that currently, as I've not had them break yet.

All that said, I think the changes are rad, just takes a little getting used to.

Edit: I also noticed a bug, when typing at a console to sv.target golf the F key turned on my flashlight. I assume that whatever code prevented input events from being triggered while looking at an object is also what prevented that from happening before. And since now we can interact with the controls while looking at objects (Such as middle mouse click to bring an item into your hand) I assume that got accidentally removed, now allowing for accidental inputs while typing.

how do you get data from transformers???, every time I send it off it doesn't register anything and when I sell the tapes off they aren't giving me any money either. and all my stuff that was in the mailbox is all glitched.

Well you dont get data from transformers, you get them from satellite servers.. If you are sending it off to get the report, then yes, it doesnt get anything because its throwing the floppy drive on the ground instead of using it, which is what my post is talking about. As for the tapes, if you dont put them in the correct box you wont get money from it. If you are not sure how to put the box in the drone bag, you should probably do the tutorial again, as you've missed important information in at least one spot, and perhaps others. Also for stuff in the mailbox, if it was there before the update, and you didnt run the "regenerate save slot" on an older save before putting them in the mailbox, then yes, they would be glitched. In fact if you dont regenerate the save and try to play it anywas, EVERYTHING becomes an error object.

I am having the same issue, as far as I can tell it has nothing to do with you sending it through the mail or making the game more difficult since if you try and send it off to do reports without a floppy in your hand there will be a tool tip telling you that you need a floppy and I made my kerfur. My only guess if it isn't a glitch is maybe it needs a brand new fully working floppy since floppy degrade over use. But I did try giving it an unused one from the main desk and it had enough space for all reports so.... Yeah prolly just broken for the time being sadly.
