New Features & Updates

Home Plot Decor and Quality-of-Life Improvements

In the last update, the S6 team debuted Home Tours… and WOW! The Palian community is so incredibly talented and creative. We have seen more elaborate, detailed, and drop dead gorgeous home plots than any of the S6 team could have imagined.

DecorLimitCounter

And the S6 team wants to further unlock your creativity by making some much requested quality-of-life improvements to the home plot decor experience. While the team is working hard to improve the overall home plot object/decor limit which you can read about in our most recent Dev Blog, the team has already made some meaningful changes to give players more crafting and designs choices, as well as some extra peace of mind, including:

  • Removing the individual Building Block object limit. Now Building Blocks are inclusive of the overall 3,000 limit!
  • Additional optimizations give players the freedom to increase their home plot Flower limit from 500 to a total of 1,000.
  • The team has added a decor/object counter visible in placement mode and from the housing menu to help players keep track of how many objects you’ve placed on your home plot.
  • Players can now seamlessly search for specific recipes and items directly from the player’s workbench and storage!
  • 📢Alert!📢 Plot owners are now notified when a players joins or leaves their plot, as well as a persistent display of how many visitors are on their plot.

These improvements should help streamline your design process and showcase your creativity for all to enjoy!

And speaking of showcasing your creativity – Palians can now view the reactions of the last Home Tour Event they participated on the Home Tours Board, including each reaction contributing to a total reaction count! Lastly, the team added a new Nameplate tier to celebrate your progress! These “Tier 4” Nameplates are awarded to players who receive an exceptional level of reactions to their home plot. And the Tier 4 Nameplate is only the first of several planned new Nameplates coming to Palia, which will be awarded for all kinds of notable in-game accomplishments and achievements. In the meantime, let’s get crafting, Palians!

Top Known Issues

Pattern Line 02_Short

Disclaimer: Please note this is not a comprehensive list of all known issues.

New to 0.183

  • Some players cannot clear a worktable search entry on Nintendo Switch.
  • The Lily Rattan Starter Pack description cites “Wardrobe” when it should read “Armchair.”
  • Some Villager names could appear even if a player has not yet met the specified Villager.
  • Players might notice the Lily Rattan bundle does not apply the “owned” tag after purchasing the bundle.
  • While touring trending home plots, players could be returned to the first trending home plot they previously visited.
  • When a player hits the item limit while decorating their home plot, players could be prompted with, “This is not a valid placement location!,” rather than “item limit reached.”
  • The entrance to Kilima Village from the Galewind Sanctuary landscape will not render all graphical materials.
  • Harvesting carrots might not provide experience towards the Gardening skill. This potential issue will be fixed in patch 0.184.
  • A "bug" icon displays when opening the Home Tour Board and Community menus. If you click on the icon, you could receive a "Banned from Home Tours" notification. You are not actually banned - simply exit the menu to resolve the issue.
  • Some objects could fail to load, resulting in players getting stuck. The “Unstuck” menu button should resolve most cases, but some instances could require a return to the Home Plot.

Other Issues

  • Fully watered crops sometimes appear unwatered when watering a friend’s crop.
  • In the Premium Store, text overlaps the color swatches while browsing the Pretty Protector outfit.
  • Players can run into issues selecting or deselecting chat channels while on a Home Tour.

  • Housing Plot names will not update in the Home Tours list if a player changes the housing plot name after submitting for a Home Tour Event.
