CHEMISTS: Dead Zone changes
May 9th - "Military Training" Event
✅ Military Training has been announced in the city's military yard.
✅ A small event with trading rare items and quests.
✅ If you haven't completed the "Military Training" event, this is another chance to complete it and stock up on rare goods.
New
✅ Dog food has been added to food crates.
✅ Stunning enemies (Bots) with grenades.
✅ New quests at the Gunsmith - 4 pcs.
New modified grenades and balancing.
✅ Grenade balancing. The characteristics and prices of all grenades have been revised - each is now better suited for its intended purpose. ✅ New powerful grenades with modifications. Enhanced versions of grenades with three modification levels are now available: M1, M2, and M3.
✅ The Gunsmith in town now has all grenades, both basic and modified. To gain access to advanced modifications, you need to increase your reputation with the military.

✅ Homemade grenades are now available; the blueprint can be purchased from the Gunsmith (Access: 1000 reputation with the military).
Changes
✅ The distance for collecting items and interacting with objects has been changed to 2 meters.
✅ Any interaction will no longer work if the player is aiming. ✅ Changed character collision radius from 30 to 35 cm. (Tests for penetration into buildings and other tight spaces are important.)
✅ Increased grenade effectiveness: The epicenter of the damage zone was 30% of the radius and now it's 65%. Be careful.
✅ Reduced propellant weight from 20g per piece to 5g.
✅ Changed sky and lighting color.
