Baldi's Basics Plus version 0.7.1, released on September 23, 2024, is a quality-of-life (QOL) patch following the major field trip update in version 0.7. This minor update focuses on expanding player choice regarding field trips and integrating new platform features. Key Features & Additions
Johnny’s New Service (Bus Pass): You can now give Johnny your Bus Pass when a field trip is available. Instead of playing the minigame yourself, Johnny will go in your place and return with three randomly selected items. While this lets you skip minigames you might find difficult, you forfeit the chance to earn a "Perfect Bonus".
Steam Timeline & Recording Support: The game now supports the Steam Game Recording feature. Your recording timeline will now automatically mark significant events, such as: Wins and losses. High scores. Current level status and notebook counts. Gameplay Adjustments
Pick-Quick-Nic Updates: The round indicator text color was changed to green for better visibility. It now also specifies the "Final Round" and tracks the number of "Bonus Rounds" completed. | Item | Old Behavior | v0
Minigame Feedback: If you lose a minigame in Hide-and-Seek mode, the game now displays text explaining which items you could have earned. For Campfire Frenzy, a new indicator tracks how many tosses remain.
Item Selection: If you win a minigame but miss the "perfect" bonus, new on-screen text clarifies that you can still choose three items to take back with you. Technical Fixes & Removals
Secret Removal: The "NINENINE" title screen Easter egg, which was active during the 0.7 release, has been removed in this version.
Bug Fixes: Addressed an issue where field trip ambience was not affected by the game's volume settings.
