To anyone having the problem of extremely low fps when loading a save in the current version (0.1.1):

Make a backup in case you screw up! Open the savefile located in the main directory of the game with a text editor and delete everything between the PurchaseStructures tags

<PurchaseStructures>

delete this

</PurchaseStructures>

note the plural.. if it doesnt have the "s" delete it.

i.e.

<PurchaseStructures> //leave this its harmless

<PurchaseStructure> //delete this

whatever is here //delete this

</PurchaseStructure> //delete this and any other groupings like this

</PurchaseStructures> //leave this - it closes the group

I am not sure why this is causing a problem (likely an error elsewhere that is calling this info), but my fps went from 3 back up to 60 after deleting this purchase history. The duplicates in the small house, and at the grips shop are not causing me any trouble. It was solely with the purchase history. This will need to be done every time you load and notice the issue, clearing or erasing the info from your board in the house does nothing. When you load back in without deleting it from the save file you can see that it will load it back on the board. I am not sure if this will effect taxes though. It didn't seem to in my save since I still had to pay, but idk how taxes are calculated.

Also I noted a potential typo in that <MailboxSettingsStructures> returns without the plural </MailboxSettingsStructure> but this didnt seem to affect anything to me.

If you want to remove duplicates in the house, remove the simple actors with the Object type i.e.:

(this will delete non-smithing objects - grips, guards, heads, ores, etc.. are not of the simple actor object type and completely safe from this)

<SimpleActorStructure>
Transform:-381.454773,630.445313,320.702240|-3.848627,0.166749,0.246043|1.000000,1.000000,1.000000
ActorType:Object
Data:11
</SimpleActorStructure>

Notice the Data: #. These are the duplicates, if it doesnt have a number - I strongly advise against deleting it. This will not delete the duplicate wood - or any wood for that matter. The numbers seem to be 1-8 and 11 for me should be the same for everyone else. It will still spawn more duplicates though, and even if you delete the spawner it will add the spawner back the next time you save, so just like the puchase history noted above it will need to be deleted again from time-to-time. Honestly though, this doesn't seem to cause much of an issue for me, I notice virtually no difference whether there are dups or not. All of the lag seems to come from the purchase history.

I have not played the Patreon version yet, so idk if it has been patched there. I'm hoping it has because I definitely want to support this game.

There is a bug in my 0.1.1 alfa version. When i start a new costum game everything works ok, but when i go to main menu and go to same save again the deer starts glitching and doubles. One works and another joust stays there. The cart spawns later so it turns and starts glitching.  Bellows( the thing to heat up furnice) starts dubbling and in's weard. Everything else deletes from my inventory. I have joust the copper hammer.  Only thing that stays ok is the money. The copper bars double on the shelf and all handles and gards dissapear( the ones that i bought). So the game literally resets and the things that you can't spend (deer and the bellows) double. If i take the gun from parts shop it teleports back to its original place. the food and paper also double. I don't know if i installed something wrong. In other easy, medium, hard modes it's ok but the food and papers double and sometimes you must buy new handles, because old ones do't work( the handles aren't fuse to the head of weapon).  The game is so good. It's my favourite, but i didn't like when i had Expensive tools and lots of ingots and grips and everything joust dissapeard. I know that it is hard to make a game so it is popular, but i think that this is a big bug. Could you fix it so i could enjoy the game. Thx for reading and i hope you'll fix it (if it's a bug).

Whenever I load up a save, I spawn in the shop halfway in the ground, and the input of the keyboard and mouse won't register.

first at all, i pretty love this game and i'm Korean. so my English may be bad (using translation)

1. version: 0.1.1

2.  when  i saved game and loaded, there were double amount of pumpkins,apples(?),potions, books in bedroom.

2-1. the FPS sharply drops to such an extent that game play is impossible.

2-2. the error continues to appear when i save and load the game.

3.  4.

Please fix this bug for players...

Just a few suggestions, but how about a designated shield crafting spot next to saw table, it could have a clamp or something to hold the shield in place which would be better cause all of my shields just get stuck in the crafting table.  Also, customers should be able to specify the kind of boss on a shield e.g laurel 1/2 or the others rounded bosses; shields should also, be orders that can be picked up the next day, or a couple days later. This is because they take 5-25 minutes (depends on the players' skill, PC, and familiarity with the game) it would be a lot easier to fulfill shield orders that way. Next something needs to be done about how to select things on the radial menu especially for making shields; perhaps players could use the right shift+B (blades), or A (axes), or H (hammers), and S (shields) this could then be followed by a number 0-9 and that number would be a hotkey for a specific blade type or hammer head (I realize that this might seem a little silly for axes with their being only a handful of styles, but for everything else it would be a huge time saver). Last thing I had on my mind was the possible addition of like the main character having a son or apprentice, I'm leaning more towards apprentice, the apprentice could in the early game help with making some basic weapons like daggers, one handed hammers, and one handed axes; as the game progresses the apprentice could start making swords, great-swords, and even shields. Finally maybe after discovering some of the borderline rare metals the apprentice could even start taking care of the shop, while the player is out getting some more ores and chopping down trees to make shields, the apprentice can take orders from customers and fulfill them on behalf of his master. 

Details When I save the game it appears that saved but when I leave the game and enter my save is not there
NOTE: my version is 0.1.1

thank you i will try that

You have done a wonderful job in building this game. I've had fun playing this game and if I wasn't broke i would pay or donate the price of a full pc game.  NOW the downside it was a little confusing at first at why my shields wasn't selling till I found out I had to make the  arm and wrist mounts too. I've had some problems in the boot up sequence which steam might help with that once its all done but what was going on started it up the first time it go to a black screen cant close it nothin  and it goes to a small window so I can at lest see my dashboard so I can click the icon again and it works fine then. Also, when I go to continue a game all the items in the first shop spawn again without despawning the last so it just piles up in my room I haven't gotten to the big house just yet so I don't know  about that  oh and with the enhanced hammer once its made the name changes and then you cant sell it to the customers that ask specifically for that head oh and I had tried to build and a few times and deleted them after but one time it didn't let me pull up the radial dial to destroy it and after a while I could and then soon I got off and when I got back on it was back.  One time I had place some rare golden polearms just the shaft on the top shelf of the 3 long shelf and I left the game and I come back later and it said i crafted them and yet they had no blade and one costumer came and bought one but since it had no head i didn't get the full price and I've had other problems like that to one time i crafted a hammer the enhanced hammer and and the costumer wouldn't take it since it said cylinder hammer and so i left it sent on a shelf next time i got on the head despawned and it sold to but no head price. Last thing  I had move some ore in a crate and once when i got back home they despawned. But even with those problems I'll still recommend your game to my friends.  You did an awesome job and I hope you are still working on this game since its been 2 years and I cant wait to see it released on steam I cant wait to play the complete version.

Launching the game now after the update I've noticed that hitting things on the anvil no longer produces as many sparks as it used to. Moved around the graphics to see if it'll help but no luck. The change notes don't state this as a change so I assume its just me bugging out. And by not as many I mean it now barely throws a few little sparks. far off from the glorious explosion of light and fire of before.
