addedNew Item Added: Wardrobe. Can be used to change your character model by consuming 5 Oxygen Coins.
removedAdjusted Lava Damage: Stepping into lava no longer results in an instant kill; instead, it now drains 30 HP every 0.5 seconds, giving players time to react.
fixedFixed a bug where players would get permanently stuck beneath the ground if they accidentally fell into the Void. The new mechanism ensures that if there is solid ground directly beneath the player, they are returned to that ground; otherwise, they are returned to the Train.
addedReduced the oxygen recovery rate of the Makeshift Mask by 50%. However, the mechanic allowing players to remove the mask and put it back on only when oxygen levels are low remains unchanged. This slower recovery rate helps balance the strategic use of this item. [Note: A Metal Oxygen Mask will be introduced in the next update; it will allow for oxygen replenishment via Oxygen Tanks and will not suffer durability loss when oxygen levels hit zero.]
fixedFixed a bug where attempting to pick up a fish from an aquarium while the inventory was full would cause the dropped fish—which landed on the ground because it couldn't be picked up—to have its weight value reset directly to 0.
