This patch has mostly been focused on the steam workshop and inventory item support as both of these systems are new, they will be improved over time so going forward this allows the community to submit and vote for skins they would like to see added to the game.
I also had time to get a Christmas event out for players this event will run until the 6th of January.
My main plans for 2023 will be a completely new map which will replace the Rise Map as the primary map for the game along with a new NPC system, and character creation.
The map will be my main focus and will take me a large amount of time to complete for what I have planned, this map will bring a new style of gameplay to Remnants.
If there's any bugs reported after this patch a hotfix will be pushed a day after to correct these issues thank you for understanding, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

I would like to add a special thanks to Shedmon the main 3d artist for the game which has created most of this content for this event along with some approved workshop items.
known issues
There are currently some known issues with vehicles not always syncing correctly when being dismounted when moving, this seems to be related to chaos physics in Unreal Engine 5, to avoid this issue I would recommend stopping before exiting your vehicle for the time being.
Localization updates do take time so if there are any missing translations, please be aware these will be translated in future updates.
If you wish to keep up to date with the games progress and current road map, please come join the official Remnants discord group.
As always if you find any issues or bugs, please report them in-game or via the discord group, if there’s major issues or you wish to discuss them in more detail feel free to on the discord group, I do try my best to test every update best that I can but at the end of the day I’m only one person :-).
