Platform: PC Steam
Issue:
Before the update: When the menu is open you could jump to the different sections by pressing the appropriate keys (U for duties, O for collection, P for events and so on).
After the update: This is not possible anymore. You have to use the mouse and click to switch the section.
Before the update: Pressing the menu keys again closes the menues.
After the update: This is not possible anymore. You have to press ESC to close the menu.
Before the update: After closing the event menu and reopen it by pressing P, the last selected sub-menu ("Duties" for example) is the active page.
After the update: This is not possible anymore. After reopening the event menu by pressing P it always jumps back to the event overview page. It only remembers the last page if you reopen the menu by pressing ESC.

Issue: When tracking a Star Path Duty, it shows a shortcut to press the (<) on the D-pad to return to the event menu but it does not work.

PS4: I would love to use the "old" furniture mode controls, but since you changed some of the furniture menu controls in the last update the new "old" controls are WAY too confusing. Pressing R2 for moving the camera with the L stick feels like trying to pat my head and rub my tummy at the same time.

Platform: PC/Xbox app
Issue: The game don't recognize my mouse in menus. With a controller I get in the game. There I can use my mouse but If I go in the inventory, for example, the mouse is again not recognized. And in the inventory and the other gameplay menus like dreamlight et cetera i cannot collect food or dreamlight and so on. I have this problem since update 8. Would be nice if this problem is solved sometime

Platform: PC/Steam
Issue: I mosty use a wireless PlayStation controller to play Dreamlight Valley. The new function that came with the most recent "Jungle Getaway" update to track dreamlight duties and starpath duties is not showing up when I hover over them with the controller, but is showing up when I do it with a mouse. It seems like there is no controller button which is connected to that function.
In the bottom right corner of the game UI, above the tool icon there is an arrow icon which indicates a panel with all the buffs the player currently has. In the game UI it is shown that that panel is supposed to open when the left joystick is pressed, however that is not correct. Instead, the panel opens when the "up arrow" on the d-pad is pressed.
The d-pad "up arrow" no longer takes you to the dreamlight duties panel, as it is shown when you complete a dreamlight duty, because it opens the buff panel. If this is intended, the UI has not been updated. If not, the controls are conflicted

PS4: camera stopped working and then game crashed when trying to quit to title screen. The camera would flash like it had taken a picture, but would not freeze the screen and show me the photo. The dreamsnaps tags would be displayed over the moving pre-photo image.

Platform: Switch
Issue: Not sure if this is correct place and if it was just for one picture as didn’t take any more, but when I took a photo and scanned the QR to download/share it, the link said access denied. It’s been working fine up until the update. Will try again tomorrow to see if it was just during a quest or if it’s the same in general.
Update: It’s every photo. Access denied, won’t load photo via QR to save 😦
