Townsfolk and pets
- Survivors and animals are now avoiding more rigorously climbing on furniture and props they are not supposed to climb on. Note: it is a known issue that if stairs are created out of props that are usually not meant to be walked on, like tables, survivors can have difficulties using these stairs.

Still Working On It
- We are aware that some players are encountering an issue with some assets taking very long to load, which can lead to objects being invisible or missing. While we have some promising leads (it seems to primarily affect players who have installed the game on an HDD), we are still investigating the range of configurations affected, so if this is happening to you, please reach out to our support so that we can make sure we're helping you, too.
