🔧 Scrap System Fixes

  • Reworked the Scrap Container payout logic to prevent cases where scrap totals didn’t increase despite destroying items.

  • Added redundancy checks and improved reliability for tracking scrap conversion events.

  • If you still encounter a payout issue, please share what you scrapped, where, and your scrap totals before/after in Discord or Steam Discussions if you can - it helps a lot!

💼 Gameplay Adjustments

  • Ammo Loot Drops - removed single-bullet rolls from ammo crates and tuned drop tables to yield fewer, higher-quality ammo bundles. This should noticeably reduce FPS spikes and make pickups feel more meaningful.

  • Loot Drop - reworked loot spawning logic to mitigate loot falling through the floor.

  • Jump & Fall Rework - major logic cleanup for vertical movement and falling transitions. This sets up future level designs with more vertical gameplay (gaps, ledges, fall-through floors, etc.).

    • Some doors may still trigger the falling animation unexpectedly - I’ll continue refining this.

  • Enemy Spawn Tweaks (Medical Alert 0) - slightly reduced enemy count for a smoother early experience for new players.

  • Enemies that have guns - Slightly decreased they engage you from

🧰 UI & Quality of Life

  • Snap Point Hover Info

    • Hovering over player snap points now shows item details for equipped gear.

    • Hovering over attachment points now shows attachment info.

  • Fixed attachment pop-ups not updating correctly after weapon swapping.

  • Known 🐞top-bar weapon snap points are still partially bugged after weapon swaps, but overall responsiveness has improved.
