Update 1.2.8

Greetings, Merchants!

We are thrilled to roll out Patch 1.2.8. This update delivers a comprehensive overhaul of the restocker system, paired with an extensive suite of refinements and stability fixes designed to elevate your trading experience.

Our team remains fully dedicated to monitoring your feedback and addressing emerging concerns with speed and precision.

  • Baker NPC Refinement: Optimized the baking logic for smoother performance.
  • UI Adjustments: Refined the checkout and scale interfaces to ensure better compatibility with various screen resolutions and localized languages.
