Update 6 (2026-09-21) officially addressed this masking tape issue: Tape placement behaves unexpectedly at short lengths or at its ends. If it still occurs after updating, treat it as a possible regression or different cause, not a guaranteed repair of your existing save.
Match the symptom
Tape placement behaves unexpectedly at short lengths or at its ends.
Check before changing your save
Record the endpoints and surface. The changelog does not publish a numeric minimum length.
- Confirm Steam has completed all available updates.
- Record the endpoints and surface. The changelog does not publish a numeric minimum length.
- Test a small separate section instead of stripping every existing tape line.
Official fix versus your current save
The developer's Update 6 note establishes a historical fix for this symptom. It does not publish a universal recovery command or prove that a previously damaged save will repair itself. This guide has not independently retested your save.
Recovery decision
Test a small separate section instead of stripping every existing tape line.
- If the installed game is older than the named patch, update and retest the same action.
- If the issue persists, try an existing known-good save without overwriting the failing one.
- If it repeats, report masking tape, the exact objective, installed build and reproduction steps to the developer's Steam discussion board.
