addedHey Everyone,It's been cooking up for a while, and now it's finally here! Update 0.5 is probably our biggest update yet in terms of new features, content, and % of code changed. With the first implementation of our AI, Matchmaking, an In-game map, new weapons, and much more, we're pretty excited. Read on for the full patch notes. Additions and Improvements

addedHey Everyone,Added initial AI Implementation -For AI in Down To One, we wanted to get the core architecture right. Every AI in DTO has to loot weapons, food, water, bandages, stay inside the playable area, kill snakes, etc, and even aim properly. -AI also benefit from just about every passive perk they (or you) have - If you shoot a weapon in the AI's hands, it will get damaged, and become less accurate, or if an AI with the 'Ol Western perk hits your secondary, then it'll fly out of your hands, just like a player-shot bullet. -Since this is our first implementation of AI, there are currently a few bugs which we'll be ironing out in the coming weeks, the most common/serious bug at the moment occurs when the AI cannot find a path to their desired location (you may notice the AI running through the spawn building this patch - that is the only building on the map that they will ever clip through). AI spawn after the round starts.

addedHey Everyone,Added in-game map in the Spawn Area
