Retail Rivals – Hotfix 1 & 2

Thank you all for your feedback! These hotfixes focus on fixing reported issues and improving the overall gameplay experience.

🚨 Important Fix

  • We've significantly improved the issue where some players were unable to click the Ready button. If the problem still occurs, we've added a temporary workaround: you can now use the assigned Ready key on your keyboard. This key can be changed in the Keybindings menu, so everyone should now be able to ready up without any issues.

Changes & Fixes

  • Employee cards now display the maintenance cost of employees you already own.

  • You can now press Tab again while a Voting Event is active.

  • Fixed an issue where the Duck Decoration could not be placed correctly.

  • Fixed an issue where the Unstuck button would sometimes not work properly.

  • Players now sit correctly on benches again.

  • Improved the product count display when ordering products for Vending Machines.

  • Vending Machines no longer allow multiple product types to be placed in the same slot.

  • Improved product placement in Vending Machines, making it easier to place products side by side.

  • All players are now notified whenever something new is unlocked.

  • Added a tooltip to the Lobby Setup explaining the duration of each game phase.

  • Improved the events that occur outside the store.

  • The Voting Event is now much more noticeable.

  • Fixed a UI issue with the FPS Limit setting.

  • Added a Mute Microphone option to the Settings menu.

  • Fixed several German localization issues at the checkout.

  • Players can no longer pick up boxes or products through walls.

  • Added a visual indicator showing which product is currently being removed.

  • Fixed an issue where products could sometimes be removed with the left mouse button.

  • Fixed an issue where cardboard boxes could become invisible. They never actually disappeared—they were only hidden due to a performance optimization.

  • Improved chair placement.

  • Chairs can now be placed in the sales area. Employees will no longer sit on those chairs and will only use chairs placed in the storage area.

  • Fixed an issue where the janitor would float above chairs instead of sitting on them correctly.
