Following the recent holiday patch, the Station has released a new hotfix for SteamWorld Build on PS4, PS5 and PC, offering several new accessibility features. It’s not available yet for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch, but there will be updates on its progress.
Some new options include adjusting the scaling for standard tooltips, the construction tooltip’s scaling, position and transparency, and even the scaling of the information windows on the bottom left. You can also turn off screen shakes and hold down the buttons for adding/removing resources in the trade window instead of pressing/clicking them repeatedly.
The UI bar in the miners section will also provide feedback when you can’t recruit specific types because the global cap has been reached. The camera will also focus on the main mineshaft when entering a mine floor for the first time in Sandbox Mode. Check out the full patch notes below.
