This is our release candidate build. Everything below came from your reports.[FIX] Things you buy from a wholesaler or vendor now stack in a neat pile on the floor, instead of spreading around or landing inside walls, benches and other boxes.

[UI] The wholesaler screen now works like your tablet: each product shows its box price, buttons change how many boxes you want, and a Clear Cart button empties the order.

[FIX] You can no longer change your wholesaler order while a purchase is going through.

[FIX] A box you are placing now shows at its normal size. Before, a box you had just picked up could look too small or too big while you placed it.

[FIX] You can no longer put a box down inside another box, a shelf or a counter. The game puts it in a free spot nearby, or tells you when there is no room.

[FIX] When you are knocked down, moving the mouse now turns only your head, not your whole body. Other players see it the same way.

[UI] The rotate hint while placing furniture now shows Q, R and the mouse wheel, instead of only Q

[FIX] The mouse wheel now turns furniture one step per notch while placing, instead of turning too far

[FIX] Boxes and items now appear straight in the hands of players and staff. Before, other players saw them fly in from far away.

[FIX] At the register, one click now scans one item. Before, you sometimes had to click an item more than once.

[UI] Hints for placing and using what you carry now show E and the left mouse button, instead of only E

[FIX] Rack shelves holding small boxes no longer say the rack is full while positions are still free, and the boxes on them now sit in their real positions for everyone.

[NEW] When you buy from a wholesaler, boxes that do not fit in your hotbar now go into your shopping cart if it is close by.

[NEW] Customers and staff now walk around you instead of walking into you.

[NEW] Putting a box on a rack shelf now tops up boxes of the same product already there. A full shelf still takes the box if the items fit into the boxes on it. Thank you for hammering on this build and reporting everything you found. You made the release candidate flawless.

Most of it hits the moments where you join someone else's mall and things quietly stopped working for you and not for the host. Fixes · Invisible employees - This one is still hurting some players so we are sorry about that, it's really a rare case and rejoining solves the problem but we've applied some other precautiions. · Dead controls on screens…Game update6 Sep 2026Sep 6, 2026\ When hosting a game fails, you now get a clear message instead of a spinner that never stops. \ Players who joined the host's game no longer get a stuck hotbar after a vendor puts an item straight into their hands.
