V0.53

Hey Everyone,

 

This patch introduces the new repair hammer. Previously you would simply press E to repair damaged structures, this now requires you to first craft the repair hammer, and then hammer away at structures to repair them.

 

Arrows will now consistently stick into enemies and also should hit more accurately now. Once enemies are knocked down you are able to retrieve the arrows from them. Seeing arrows stuck in some of the bigger creatures will also give you a better idea of how damaged they are.

 

In hard mode, we've increased the chance of distorted enemies coming out and also added a new system that will allow the distorted to travel in groups, either with regulars or other distorted. This should enable more encounters where multiple strategies are needed at the same time to deal with the different enemy types. We also increased the health on leader cannibals in both normal and hard modes

 

For multiplayer we've fixed a ton of bugs, allowed all weapons to now be shared with sharing tray, improved animations on other players and added a new leather jacket clothing variation.

 

We've fixed some issues with cave collision and specifically with players being pushed out of the world. We've also added some subtle coordinates to the pause menu. If you mention the coordinate numbers when giving any bug reports about specific locations in the game world  it will allow us to instantly find the area.

 

For save games, we've added the option to view other saves on the same pc, as we have had some reports of save files missing which we hope this solves.

 

Along with this there are a ton more tweaks and bug fixes, the full list can be viewed below.

 

As always, please continue to post your bug reports and feedback in the Discussions area of the Community Hub
