Common issues and fixes
Currently we are aware about two major issues and we have working on fixing them.
We would like to ask you to hold your negative reviews and try one of the workarounds for the bugs:

Crash at startup - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/app/407130/discussions/1/1745645554524874172/
Backward movement - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/app/407130/discussions/1/1745645554524789549/
Glitched graphics - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/app/407130/discussions/1/1745645763055020606/

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Possible solution for crashes:

RUN THE GAME AS ADMINISTRATOR

Right click the game in your Steam Library.
Go to "Properties" then the "Local Files" tab.
Click "Browse Local Files."
Locate the game executable (TankMechanicSimulator.exe).
Right click it and go to "Properties."
Click the "Compatibility" tab.
Check the "Run this program as an administrator box."
Click Apply.
Once you have done this, restart Steam and try launching the game again.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

For crashing issue:
Also, if you set graphics Custom Settings in menu, make sure Texture Streaming option is disabled (set it off). Due to instability with random system configuration, this option will be fully disabled (inactive) in the next patches.

My inventory keeps emptying itself when i outsource for repairs and takes the money for it without actually fixing anything. Is anyone else finding this issue?

When I get into recovery mode and am outside by my vehicle I have all these crazy colors splashed everywhere. To the point I cannot see my vehicle or large portions of the ground.

That's a good question, it's usually problem with firewall or antivirus.

Here are all the issues I found in my first 100 minutes of gameplay in order of apearance
  • We can't change the control for the player when he is walking (while it is available for the vehicule)
  • reseting the controls actually seems to unset them all (they all end up with a blank icon)
  • trying to change the controls while ingame (ie not the main menu) is impossible because the box to insert the new control appear behind the menu
  • The "tutorial mails" take ages to arrive, in fact It seems that I need to completely restart the game to get them. However "nomal mails" work just fine
  • Clicking the disable button in the tutorial menu do not disable the tutorial, it come back everytime I open up the radial menu
that's all for now

find a small bug.. well, i guess its a bug..

on the museum, when i place the PPSH, it work nice, but i have no idea what the "C "camera" change" option is suppsoe to do, because nothing change at all.

also, if i turn the PPSH before validate in the showcase, it didnt work and get back to inventory. i can only place it in standard position, cant turn it around. (and yes, the showcase is big enougth to get it, soo no conflict i guess :/)
