Fixed an issue where moving cars in San Van were causing skate. to crash. Developer’s Note: Moving Cars will not return to San Van until at least 24 hours after Update 0.31.2 goes live. We’ll use this time to monitor the stability of the fix before adding moving cars back in.
## What changed
### Balance
- **Fingerflips** — expanded to 30 variations with directional counterparts (Fingerflip/Fingerheel, Crail to Tail/Tail to Crail, etc.) to fill gaps in the trick set and preserve Skate 3 legacy while making the system more complete and consistent
- **Fingerflip inputs** — now accessible from **Double Grabs** and **Coffins** with refined control design for comfortable, reliable execution
### Bug Fixes
- **Open Party joining** — fixed players occasionally being placed in random parties when joining a friend's Open Party
- **MP4 export** — some players unable to export in MP4 format (workaround: use WebM format on PC)
- **Challenge/Throwdown black screen** — rarely occurs on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One at start (workaround: reboot the game)
- **Pinned tasks** — no longer remain pinned after game reconnects from inactivity
- **Graphics preset** — changing presets now properly updates settings display
- **Coping Inspector mission** — first step no longer gets crossed out without progressing (workaround: reboot)
- **HUD aspect ratio** — 16:9 centered/full-width UI toggle now works in Windowed mode
- **Scavenger Hunt tracking** — fixed progression lock when tracking Scavenger missions while other missions are tracked (workaround: reboot)
- **Fingerflip tags** — added missing Switch and Fakie tags in Chapter 1
- **World Traffic visibility** — cars no longer become invisible after toggling setting off/on (workaround: change setting only once per session)
- **Co-op Challenge celebration** — party member names no longer
Johnny: We wanted fingerflips to feel familiar to longtime players while also improving on what existed before. That meant preserving the legacy of Skate 3, where it made sense, while also expanding the system and making it more complete. We identified some gaps in previous implementations and worked to make the trick set more consistent and reliable.
Lance: There are 30 finger flip variations available. One of our goals was to fill in gaps. If a variation existed in one direction, we wanted players to have access to the equivalent variation in the opposite direction whenever possible. So for each Fingerflip there's a Fingerheel, and you can go Tail to Crail after a Crail to Tail, to name a few.
Johnny: We also expanded the system beyond what existed before. For example, fingerflips can now be performed out of Double Grabs and Coffins, which required us to get creative with the input design and ensure the controls remained comfortable and reliable.

The option to select between 16:9 centered HUD and full-width and height UI is present but non-functional while in Windowed mode.
Lance: One of the more interesting challenges involved making fingerflips work naturally from a coffin. We wanted the input to feel intuitive without forcing players into awkward controller gymnastics. That required experimentation and refinement to make sure the mechanic felt smooth and responsive. One funny aspect was actually coming up with a name for "Fingerheel." Since it's a more obscure trick, we couldn't dig up an agreed-upon name by the skate. community. So, we landed on Fingerheel.
If the player has any kind of Mission outside of Scavenger ones tracked, once they log in and track the Scavenger Hunt missions, the mission cannot be progressed. Workaround: Rebooting skate. may resolve this issue.

Players cannot change who they spectate after using RT/R2 or LT/L2 commands. Workaround: Players will only see the first and last person on the list. To spectate other people, they need to select them one by one in the menu list.
