-- hmm I didn't even have to opt-in, Steam just downloaded the update anyway. Probably because I downloaded the last beta

Is there a beta pass? Didnt see the option to opt in.

edit: Silly me, it was just steam not updating my list

I didn't have the option either, but I restarted Steam and it updated anyway. I think *every* copy is a beta now lol

This is the full patch notes? Pretty underwhelming, no?

Yea pretty short list, considering all the issues it has?

If this is it. I'm disappointed. Do they have 5 people working on this game? Mostly in Flash too...

Remapping Activate now works on Quick Container

That's all I ever wanted. Yes! Hopefully it works with the R - transfer all as well. ESDF master race can rise again.

I am always grateful for patches of anykind. Truly I am.

But this list ... um ... seems short.

Hm... I have a bug where Preston Garvey won't be my follower... looks like that won't be fixed this patch, unfortunately.

Spoiler

Preston Garvey always just says "Hey, General." It seems to have been caused by having him as my companion when I went to do the Castle quest.

:Edit: Just found in the Wiki that this can be fixed on PC:

This can be fixed on PC by opening the console, selecting Preston Garvey and inputting removefac 00075d56.

I'm surprised the Monsignor Plaza bug isn't getting fixed in this patch.

There are so many issues I'd like to see fixed, but I hope these fixes make it more enjoyable for others. Hope there is another patch soon, maybe one that will remove the annoying chem addict from my roof and one to fix the UI for settlements and AI for companions/settlers.

I asked this in the beta forum, but it'd be nice to get an answer so let me ask in this thread as well:

Can anyone confirm if dragging items with the E key is fixed, as well as the town building UI being hard coded? I don't see them in the patch notes, so I assume not, but I can't verify because I got a refund for the game due to the keybinding issues.
