V0.17B- Small performance improvement, enemy pacing tweaks and some other small fixes

Hey Everyone,

 

Here's a small patch with a few quick fixes to issues that have been found over the last few days.

 

  • Changed fullscreen behaviour from full screen window to exclusive mode (should provide some performance benefits)
  • Fixed icons not visible for lower shelves of snack holder
  • Fixed loading a game that was saved inside a cave (not retroactive)
  • Slightly increased rate enemies populate world as days pass
  • (multiplayer) Fixed clients not being able to add fuel (leaves/Cash) to fire
  • (multiplayer) Fixed issue where clients would sometimes swim in caves
  • (multiplayer) Fixed arrows shot by clients not affecting animals/enemies
As always, please continue to post your bug reports and feedback in the Discussions area of the Community Hub
