#24E817d agoAnnouncementHi sorry for the slow week, I have had covid! I'm better now though I think. Fixed a bug that was applying the Bad Knees penalty based on the character's move cost, not the terrain's. Fixed a few similar bugs related to…AnnouncementImpact 7014 changes
#E42821d agoPatch notesDrugs and Medicine Cough syrup, sleeping pills, and antihistamines are now on the new drug system. Sleeping pills are now zolpidem. If you are a nerd you will know this as Ambien. Currently they're very simple and just…Patch notesImpact 706 changes

#037624d agoStoreSmokes, the Hub 01 intercom, the folks at Tacoma, and the NECC traders will no longer buy every stupid piece of trash you walk in with. Each faction only cares about a few narrow categories of items and their main trade…StoreImpact 757 changes
#DCFF25d agoStoreOpioids Opioids have had their effects and addiction rewritten. They now use the same system as alcohol and cannabis, tracking the actual concentration of the stuff in your system rather than just an arbitrary effect. O…StoreImpact 757 changes
#760B28d agoPatch notesNPC AI Fixes Hostile NPC aggression and combat behavior has had a major fix. Previously, hostile NPCs were basically ignoring threats that were more than a few steps away. Now, they'll engage and pursue enemies whenever…Patch notesImpact 759 changes
#303520 Apr 2026Patch notesCritical Marijuana Update Weed is now a pretty good painkiller. It has 4 levels of intensity: stoned, baked, blazed, and zooted. The first level (stoned) gives -1 perception and has minimal drawbacks. The penalties for…Patch notesImpact 605 changes
#F3F920 Apr 2026Patch notesAddiction Updates Alcohol and nicotine no longer proc withdrawals while you are sleeping, though the timer still runs, so you are likely to need a pick me up as soon as you wake up. All addictions now have their own tim…Patch notesImpact 705 changes

#86AE16 Apr 2026Patch notesNote: This update reworked and removed a couple of background (profession) IDs, and there's no good way to obsolete these. Existing saves may report an error about invalid profession ID when first loaded, you can safely…Patch notesImpact 603 changes
#3B1114 Apr 2026StoreReinforced glass is gone, as it didn't represent anything that exists in real life. Glass with wires in it is weaker than regular glass and does not belong in ultratech labs, it's a fire safety thing that was abandoned…StoreImpact 705 changes
#274111 Apr 2026AnnouncementThere was an error message popping up for people who had a specific mission. This clears that up.Announcement
#303B10 Apr 2026AnnouncementNPC followers who are hungry will no longer forage as a last resort. This idea might have made sense on paper but it didn't really work out in practice, especially since they would do it if they were at all below their…AnnouncementImpact 653 changes
#D92610 Apr 2026StoreAdded a new weight category: Skinny. Skinny can be thought of as equivalent to Obese, but in the other direction: It is the point at which your weight has become a problem in terms of speed, stats, and lifestyle. Moved…StoreImpact 753 changes
#4DA909 Apr 2026AnnouncementBy popular demand (OK it was one person) I added a new scenario, Nuclear Wasteland. If you select this scenario, the weather will (almost) always be fallout, with occasional breaks for rain or snow.Announcement1 changeGameplay
#192B07 Apr 2026StoreAnomalous Weather A feature I've long wanted to add is finally here. Anomalous weather events are sort of our answer to portal storms. They're events that happen occasionally and cause some unusual change to the world w…StoreImpact 759 changes
