This update brings a couple of huge additions and ideas to the game world. First off, saving has been disabled from the menu. Don't panic, there is a solution. Players must sleep in a secured area. Secured areas have beds that can be used to sleep in. Players will be brought to the save screen when a bed is slept in. Players can also get sleeping bags that allow them to save anywhere they want. Sleeping is important and it is vital for the survival of your character. Before, the beds were almost completely useless. Now, they are important. This change will make players carefully consider each and every move they make. This also gives players the sense of having a place to call home or a hide out to rest their head and stash their loot. When the player created base building system is added to the game, this will act as a permanent shelter for characters to save. Another important notable change is to the radiation system. The sound and the image that normally are played and shown while taking radiation only play when players are on a radiated tile. Players can still take radiation after they leave the tile but only for a few seconds. This change was made due to the amount of bugs and problems the old system caused. The last huge change note is the police station area. The police station has finally been added and it is by far the largest area yet. It has a jail in the basement level, the ground floor has offices and briefing rooms, and the second floor has the chief's office and the armory. Players now have the chance to explore and raid a full police station.
