Early Access Update v0.7.0 Patch Notes!

What You Need To Know About The Airboat,

How to use,

The airboat can be found at the boathouse (Coordinates 44W by 27S), Players will need to repair it before it can be used. This will require 1x Refined Leather, 1x Metal Scrap and 1x Electric Parts. This can be done by walking up to the small work table located to the right of the airboat in the boathouse and interacting with it. To operate the airboat you must press the interact button while looking at the engine or control handle.

Anchor,

The airboat features an anchor which must be dropped or the boat will drift away. If the anchor is dropped the airboat will move extremely slow. To reel the anchor simply hold interact until it is hooked. To drop the anchor press the secondary interaction button and it will fall to the lake bottom.

Storage,

The airboat has one steel storage crate and a plastic food barrel located at the front of the boat, This is so that players can transport specific items over long distances.

Bed,

The airboat features a small mattress which can be used to sleep in. Note that this bed does not update the player spawn point such as other beds.

Boat outside of water,

If the player steers the airboat out of water it will still be functional but will be extremely slow as it slides across the land, I recommend that players stop the airboat just before the front touches the ground.

New Stuff,

Airboat vehicle which can be found at the boathouse.
New item, Electrical parts. (Rare item found at some points of interest)
New item, Metal scrap. (Rare item found at some points of interest)
New storage device, Steel crate. (Works the same as the existing wooden crate)
New storage device, Plastic food barrel. (Works the same as the existing wooden food barrel)

Fixes,

Fixed, Major problem with save system preventing character to load correctly.
Fixed, Closing storage crate with Q prevented player from interacting with it.
Fixed, Closing food barrel with Q prevented player from interacting with it.
Other general bug fixes.

Changes,

Toolboxes have been removed from the game to be replaced with steel crates.
Lockers are now looted like storage crates instead of spawning physical items.
World loot such as canned food or water bottles will no longer respawn over time.
Reworked how crate loot is spawned.
Other general reworks to fit new content.

Dev Notes Regarding Future Content:

This update introduces electric parts and metal scrap. For now these items are only used to repair the airboat but I've been playing around with electrical appliances and fuel for a future update. This will introduce new mechanics such as allowing players to repair and move generators found across the map for electricity which will power advanced structures, custom lights and moving platforms. As always I'd love to hear your recommendations for this feature.
