For now, here are the[b] Known Issues[/b]
[list]
[*]Trees in the backyard changes models when walking around the backyard
[*]Request can sometimes appear on the back of the quest board
[*]Request can sometimes float a few inches away from the quest board
[*]Merchant animation for bartering can make him float in the air when the player enters a tutorial.
[*]Merchant voiceline missing in barter when explaining masking tool
[*]Lip sync for Merchant (after metal tutorial) and heroes is missing
[*]Horseshoe mini game stick has no collider
[*]A weapon with wood welded to it can sometimes be completely destroyed if tossed into the fire.
[*]Volume settings slider is not possible to go from 0 to 100
[*]Rocks in the backyard and closest to the forge has no colliders
[*]Merchants hammer has the wrong material on his hip
[*]Haptics might not work properly
[*]Barter sign requires player to double tap the first time and is flipped the wrong way
[*]Barter sign is NOT smackable :(
[*]If items or objects accidentally fall through the ground,they will not respawn back to ground level. This can occur if a player accidentally adds force by smacking something down to the ground.
[*]Sometimes when hammering a hot piece of metal, the piece can get bugged out
[*]It is possible to complete a tutorial request several times if the game restarts at specific times. This issue results in the player getting more reputation than they should have, skipping crucial tutorial steps further down the line. Locking the player from obtaining Copper ore and therefore cannot complete the “bear population” quest
[*]Barter tutorial can be locked IF the tutorial is rushed through and the player skips steps![/list]

[*]Mouse and keyboard input is enabled for movement while in VR
