DEMO UPDATE #4 - Chart Your Course

❗QUICK PSA❗

I'm aware of the crashes that sometimes occur when loading into a raid and I apologize for that happening. While I haven't identified the exact issue yet, I've taken steps to help identify where the problem might be. In order to gather this information, it requires the game to crash and then be re-opened for the game to send me the crash report.

🚨 If your game crashes, please re-open the game in order to automatically send a crash report 🚨

After re-opening the game, you can either keep playing as normal at that point or simply quit the game from the main title screen. I appreciate your patience while I gather more information on this!

💬 DISCORD 💬

Please continue to send reports and feedback via the Discord or through Steam forums. I'd love to hear from you!

PATCH NOTES - v0.4.3

🎮 GAMEPLAY 🎮

• Added a viewable map that you can open in raid. It shows your position as well as any compass markers directly on the map. Press "M" by default to open it while in raid. Clicking on the map will place a Custom Waypoint on the map and on your compass. Clicking the Custom Waypoint again will remove it

  

• Increased number of zombies a Screamer can spawn by +2

• Increased the amount of zombies that can spawn together near the player

• Rebalanced zombie stats to slightly increase their HP as well as movement speed for some variants

• Added new Gym base module upgrade: Inventory Slots. Increases your max inventory slots by +1

• Adjusted some items for key barters from traders

• Lowered Movement Speed Buff on the Caffeine Stim from 20% to 10%. Now with armor and backpack changes that affect movement speed, this should help balance things out a little

• Increased Token cost to add a map modifier from 25 to 50

• Increased base item token prices to make Vending Machine items slightly more expensive to purchase

• Slightly decreased the amount of tokens earned from turning in uncommon and rare bounties

• Removed the following lootable objects and replaced them with their similar counterparts:

  • Electronics Crate replaced with Electronics Box

  • Small Toolbox replaced with Toolbox

  • Small Medical Bag replaced with Medical Bag

  • Large Ammo Box replaced with Ammo Box

    • RemovedDEV NOTEThese lootable objects were so similar in what they contained that they have been removed to simplify the loot pool. For example, there's no point in having an electronics crate and an electronics box when they both contain the same electronic items. This change will help simplify looting

• Adjusted all armor's max durability stat to be based on rarity. Some armor's get nerfed from this change, but most are now buffed and can take more damage before needing to be repaired

  • Common: 100

  • Uncommon: 200

  • Rare: 300

  • Very Rare: 400

  • Legendary: 500

• Increased Max Durability for the following gun types:

  • Marksman Rifles from 150 to 250

  • Snipers from 100 to 150

  • Assault Rifles from 750 to 1000

  • SMG's from 750 to 1000

🔵 OTHER 🔵

• Added tutorial screen for how to manually track items. It pops up after unlocking Doc

• Added automated crash reports if the game crashes. Simply start up the game again and I'll receive a crash notification with logs via Discord. I've seen several reports of the game crashing when starting a raid so this should help me track down the issue

🐞 BUG FIXES 🐞

• Fixed an issue where scrapping items in your hotbar would delete them if your inventory was full

• Fixed some missing collisions on bathroom stalls in Cheap-O Mart and the Burger Joint

• Fixed some doors in the medical centers that were being visually hidden even though the player had clear line of sight of the doors

• Fixed an issue where waypoints on the compass would get offset and not line up with the objects they point you towards. If you still see this issue, please report it in the comments or in the Discord bug reports channel

• Fixed an issue causing stamina regeneration to be set to 0 if you died while under the effects of a Caffeine Stim

• Fixed an issue where the Gunshot Volume setting would not be applied to guns when switching to them

• Fixed enemy spawn logic to help prevent spawning under hills and underground

🙏 THANK YOU 🙏

Thanks for all the feedback so far and for playing the demo! I appreciate everyone's help and am looking forward to sharing more about the game in the near future.
