Taival Early Access Patch 0.5.0-379 Delivers Over 25 Bug Fixes

The early access build of Taival received patch 0.5.0-379 on 21 July 2026, authored by atomi tonttu. The developer framed it as a direct response to player feedback, describing the batch as intended to make "gameplay experience feel a lot smoother."

What changed

The fixes span nearly every system in the game:

• Certain animals could not be tamed — now resolved
• The Mystery of Henki quest failed to mark as completed
• Dropping specific items would launch the player across the map
• Overleveled players were unable to receive drops from ore sources and similar
• The Henki companion now only attacks creatures the player has first struck
• Bedrolls could be placed without limit
• Bilzur's Boat quest stalled if the player already held Munchroot glue
• Loading saves on certain colliders caused the player to spawn beneath geometry
• Toughened Leather was not craftable using Hillhoof Hide
• Jump attacks could throw the player into the air unintentionally
• Water level-of-detail shifted incorrectly with camera angle
• Magic projectile size increase skill stacked on every attack rather than once
• Keybinds and map markers were not saving properly
• Melee aim lock-on rotated too slowly, feeling unresponsive
• Distant enemies stopped pursuing after being hurt
• Favourites failed to swap to a weapon in a non-active slot correctly
• Companion pack mule weights were invisible in the trade view
• Trihorn meat was not cookable; talismans were unusable for the first several minutes of a session due to false cooldown triggers
• Mushrooms in Glimmercap Cave were unreachable
• An overpowered staff was obtainable from the starting cave

Taken together, the patch closes a notable number of quest-progression blockers and inventory edge cases that had accumulated since the previous build.
