Summary (AI)

Patch 1.0.4 for The Spotter: Dig or Die addresses several spawning and save-related issues, ensuring players consistently spawn near their bed and preventing lock-ins behind doors in the Horror zone. Time manipulation exploits using teleportation have been fixed, and the UFO will no longer revisit after being shot down. Quality-of-life improvements include doubled daytime duration on Low difficulty, more reliable Tesla Gun and turret AI chip interactions, and enhanced item collection with the vacuum tool. Audio bugs have been resolved with proper layering and automatic radio shutdown at night, and multiple bugs related to artifacts, horror zone music, waves progression, and translations have been corrected. The outdated “Final Wave” achievement has been removed.

Tip: expand all for quick scanning.

UFO: After shooting down the UFO, it will no longer revisit your location (the mission is now properly completed).
Radio: Radio now automatically turns off at night to avoid interfering with combat music.
Content removal: The “Final Wave” achievement has been removed as it is no longer relevant.
The “Babai” in the horror bunker can now be killed with a rifle (we will soon add effects and an HP bar for it).
Removed the default 30 FPS cap for Steam Deck.
Artifact achievement now unlocks after collecting 6 items.
Turret camera shake now only works when the player is inside it.
