Supermarket Simulator just received Patch 1.2.2, a focused update targeting persistent UI bugs and DLC license errors. While it addresses immediate frustrations, the real news lies in the developer's commitment to a ground-up rewrite of the game's restocker system to end the era of flying boxes and broken spawns once and for all.
If you've been struggling with the Vending Machine display or seeing map errors when trying to position equipment, this patch is for you. Nokta Games has cleaned up several UI-related failures that were preventing items from clearing properly. More importantly, they've resolved a frustrating bug where DLC licenses would fail to check correctly, particularly for players who had navigated the refund process.
The Bakery DLC is also getting some much-needed attention. The Baker NPC, who previously had a bit of an obsession with over-producing bagels, is being rebalanced. The goal is to make the NPC more helpful and responsive to actual store needs rather than just filling every available slot with the same doughy goods. It's a small change that significantly improves the efficiency of the bakery expansion.
Looking ahead, the developers have acknowledged that the current restocker logic is fundamentally flawed. Instead of applying more hotfixes to the existing code, they are performing a full rewrite. This should finally solve the immersion-breaking issues where restockers get stuck or products spawn in incorrect locations. Expect frequent, potentially weekly updates as the team pushes to stabilize the experience. For players managing high-volume stores, these systemic overhauls are far more valuable than any single new item.
