Unlock Jack of all trades with painting, cleaning, repair and Firmware Update on one order; compare the marked route with one provisional shortcut.
Quick answer: complete all four services on one order
Jack of all trades unlocks when one delivered order includes painting, cleaning, repair and hacking. In current player language, “hacking” is the Firmware Update service. Update to build 1.0.015 before testing: official patch 1.0.011r lists this achievement as fixed, so a launch-version failure does not prove it is still broken now.
Most reliable recorded route: wait for a four-service online order
The marked answer in the current Steam discussion reports that an online order with cleaning, repair, painting and Firmware Update appeared around day 78 and unlocked the achievement after completion. Other players report similarly late orders, so the day number is not a guaranteed spawn point. Check the order list before ending each day and do not count stickers as one of the four required services.
- Unlock the relevant tools and Firmware Update access
- Check every online order before advancing the day
- Accept an order listing all four services
- Complete all four on the same device
- Deliver it and check Steam while online
Orders begin at the counter. Read the request, then check the To-Do list before deciding that progress is blocked.
Reported shortcut: add painting and Firmware Update yourself
A newer player report says an eligible clean-and-repair order can unlock Jack when the device also supports Firmware Update and the player adds a custom paint job plus Firmware Update before delivery. This is not the marked answer and has not been independently reproduced here. Treat it as a low-risk experiment on a protected save, not as the official or guaranteed route.
| Route | Evidence | Confidence |
|---|---|---|
| Four-service online order | Marked Steam answer and matching player reports | Best recorded route |
| Clean/repair order + added paint + Firmware Update | One recent player report | Provisional; not independently verified |
| Sticker added to an order | Not in the official Jack condition | Does not replace a required service |
If Jack of all trades does not unlock
Confirm that every service belonged to the same delivered order and that the device actually completed Firmware Update. Keep Steam online, finish delivery, allow the save cycle to complete and check the achievement list again. If it still fails, record the game build, in-game day, full order card, device, four completion states and whether you used the listed order or the reported shortcut.
What patch 1.0.011r changed
The official 1.0.011r notes list “Fixed Jack of all trades achievement.” This is historical fix evidence, not a new unlock condition. On build 1.0.015, follow the public four-service requirement first and describe any current failure separately from launch-period reports.
