V0.03 rolled out last night.
PLEASE NOTE WE ARE STILL SUFFERING FROM INTERMITENT SERVER CRASHES.
Deleting your previous save data or starting a new character (rather than continuing your old character) should help avoid this. Please note that if anyone else logs in and has this problem it is possible the whole server will crash.
We're working on a fix for this now.
Fixes:
• Skills should now save within current character; however, skills are still known to sometimes not carry across when starting a new character/after death that’s that same class/profession as we are still trying to improve saving functionality.
• Multiple names of the same character should no longer appear floating in the air above their heads.
• Esc key and tab now both bring up the in-game menu.
• added extra text to the death screen to help clarify what happens when you die.
• Improved helmet alignment on player.
• Stopped stacking cloth in a lootable from causing a server crash.
• Animals now drop loot again in their gore bag.
• Players shouldn’t get stuck in beds anymore.
Made adjustments to the UI to cater for people who have 1280x1024 resolutions.
• Added in local sounds for when you get hit as a temp fix until we get bigger audio problems fixed.
• Added local sound for locking and unlocking doors.
• Made the game launch in fullscreen windowed as launching in full screen seemed to be causing problems.
• Sticks & stones should be easier to pick up and never fall out of synch with server.
• Fixed various UI screens becoming permanently open, when you die with them open.
• Item Duplication exploit using the “V” key has now been fixed.
• Merchant Exploit fix - Buy Crude sword for 20g < sell for 160g
• Resources now take longer to respawn.
• Crafting blue dye fixed.
• Adjusted pitch Aim offset so character doesn’t have his head looking down at his feet all the time while running around.
• Stopped the exit timer from being able to go down into negative numbers when exiting the game.
• Swimming noise being audible across the entire map is now fixed.
• Cloth should now craft properly.
• Removed corrupt assets, spline walls and interactables from the world that were causing crashes.
• Added Green Man Gaming logo to splash video.
• Fixed Greater helmet not spawning when dropped.
• Correct details now shown in the continue screen.
• Fixed misc item problems that were causing crashes.
• Server listing has numbers again.
• Various landscape and foliage optimization.
• Various landscape bugs fixed.
• Various floating assets fixed.
• More resources added to world.
• General UI tweaking, anchor points, extra descriptions.
• Fixed NPCs disappearing on attack.
• Ai respawns less quickly.
• Bread rolls no longer give 25% infection, reduced to 1% like other rotten food.
• Various sound volumes adjusted.
• Leather stacking error fixed.
• All houses have had their prices increased.
• Stopped sprinting on spot animation playing while standing still.
• Housing now saves per server.
• Utility’s now have a larger area around them in which they will allow you to craft.
• Players can no longer emote whilst using interactable objects (chairs, beds, stocks etc) as it was causing problems. – This will be re-introduced with specific emotes for interactable objects.
• Added character limit to character name field.
• Added names to lootables e.g. sack, barrel, covered body instead of "None" that was there previously.
• Added names to HUD UI for Fixables e.g. Crude chair, Standard bed, Greater Tapestry, so you know what you are about to make.
• Added an extra menu layer to the create new character/continue screen. To make sure that you wanted to create a new character as you will lose progress on your previous one.
• Switching between menu screens will no longer leave you with no cursor visible to click on things.
• Heavy chest plate now has skeletal mesh instead of equipping an invisible torso section.
• Crafting a fishing rod now requires a work bench, not a grinding wheel.
• Removed exploit where you could die quit, restart the game and continue previous character.
• Name overhead of other players says correct details after you continue a character.
• Fish exploit removed.
• You will now come out of combat mode when your weapon breaks, instead of being stuck in combat animations with no weapon.
The team wanted to shout out to a few of the players who've submitted particularly useful information. We've had loads of bug reports, tweets and forum posts. This is only a handful of the player who we've spoken to.
Thanks to EVERYONE who's who’s messaged or sent us stuff. We'll be continuing to talk to you all and keep the game updated, fixing as we go.
