Patch Notes (v0.8.2)
Sector Overhaul🌏
►All Sectors
The world has been reshaped to support driving/ATV usage across all sectors.
Lore has been more fleshed out. Updated notes found in the world can now be pieced together to build a more coherent narrative.
Adjusted/changed possible radio tower locations in all sectors.
The Grand Ruins & Mountain sectors has been completely cut from the game, and all their content has been moved.
The idea with removing these two Sectors is to make gameplay feel tighter by re-purposing their respective content in the remaining part of the world. You are now much more likely to stumble into interesting things as all content now resides within a smaller play-area.

Has a new exit on the western side, leading straight into the Lowlands.
▻ Oasis
Has been partly reworked.

This is now the lowest tier/introductory sector in the world.
Some items previously found in the removed Grand Ruins has been moved here.
▻ Well-Excavation
Has been partly reworked.
Renamed the sector to Wetlands.
About 30% of this sector has been cut.
▻ Pit (New)
