Hello survivors!
This update is focused mainly around addressing any bug reports and other general fixes. The sound issue should now be fixed, I've removed the old spatialization fix and instead set the audio listener at the proper location, fixing the directional oddities that existed after the last update. Thanks to a community report I've been able to finally locate the cause of the hidden enemy bug and crush it.
The start menu will now contain a list of all recent changelog information dating back to the previous large update. There was some sort of issue with the last fix I made for the passenger ranged weapon aim direction, but now it should be fixed for good. Read below for a full changelog.
If you encounter any bugs, please leave a report in the Active bugs forum with as much information as possible to recreate the issue, and I'll do what I can to get it fixed. The next few updates will once again focus on graphical content as well as a brand new equipment system that will give much more variety to the existing content, as well as a long list of new content.
My goal is to add more things to do and general mayhem without altering the gameplay that players seem to enjoy. For example, I'm currently planning out a bank location concept that can sometimes contain a locked vault full of cash. Breaking into the vault will trigger the hordes as well as some automated defenses, but planning and teamwork can lead to a decent haul.
