Escape Simulator Patch Notes – July 7, 2023
Changelog:
- Fixed Puzzle prop not saving properly
- Time scale of the water prop can now also be transitioned
Important note for builders!
Last night’s update broke the Puzzle prop save. If you’ve updated your room (saved over the previous save) after the props update (13 hours ago) you need to check you puzzle props!
How to fix your room if your puzzle props are empty:
- Just update the puzzles in the room editor by hand. Easiest to do if you remember your settings.
- Revert to a room backup from the Backups folder. This will revert any changes you’ve made to the room since last night.
Go to your UGC room folder and find the Backups folder inside. Choose one of the backup files that was made before the update. Copy and paste it to your room folder and rename it to “Room.room”. This will override you Room.room file and delete any changes you made, so you might want to make a backup of that old Room.room file as well (just to be safe). - Copy some settings from the backup. This will revert only the puzzle props but it’s harder to do.
Find the same backup file as mentioned in 2. Open it and the original Room.room file with some text reader. Find all puzzle components you want to revert and paste their settings into the Room.room file on the exact same position (you’ll need to do some detective work to figure out which puzzle props match).
