Graveyard Keeper 2 Update 1.008 Tackles Crashes, Softlocks, and a Stubborn Zombie

Tinyxsarion's Update 1.008 for Graveyard Keeper 2 lands as a wide-ranging corrective patch, touching nearly every layer of the game without introducing new content.

What changed

Crashes & stability

• Fixed a crash when going to bed that could throw the player out of bounds.
• Resolved an infinite load screen triggered by a conveyor-related exception on save load.
• Suppressed persistent error pop-ups that would keep reappearing during play.

Softlocks & collision

• Cleaned up a collision issue on the right side of the workyard.
• Fixed clipping and stuck states in the Town Warehouse and vine cellar.
• Resolved two quest softlocks: one tied to the Inflation/mercenary quest (which also locked a garden plot) and one in the main questline when completing Linda's Ball before the Plague Doctor's sequence.

Combat & exploits

• Fast Travel Points can no longer be used mid-battle.
• The zombie Panic debuff now correctly triggers when the zombie cap is exceeded.
• Placeholder text fight_start_overhead_reason no longer appears at combat start.

Zombies, farming & crafting

• Fixed a zombie stuck attempting to retrieve items from the firewood holder.
• Corrected wheat visually following the player while farmers failed to produce.
• The Sommelier perk now correctly boosts wine crafting.
• Fixed the PR machine running shorter than its stated duration.
• Corrected misleading requirement text in the distiller craft tooltip.

UI & inventory

• Items such as compost no longer teleport into inventory from a distance when a slot opens.
• Clay storage now displays correctly when more than half full.
• Save slots show current data and the correct happiness icon.
• Several study table and folio interface fixes improve readability.

For players who hit progress walls or unexplained crashes, 1.008 removes a meaningful number of the obstacles that had accumulated since launch.
