New Contents:

1. - Gene editing system: Players can now customize their characters via gene editing, allowing them to master different combat abilities while also improving their stats (enter the game and press the shortcut G);
2. - Added a series of items for gene module analysis, which can be acquired easily in the game (source descriptions for these items have been added in the gene editing system);
3. - Pet level-up function: Players can now raise the level of their pets by creating Targeted Gene Editing Agent (created via various workbenches);
4. - Pets now have different skills (right-click the pet to view);
5. - To prepare for multiplayer mode, we split the characters and the worlds (the same character can enter different worlds), and players can set the character difficulty and world difficulty separately.

Adjustments:

1. - Adjusted a large number of internal values of the game in accordance with the gene editing system;
2. - Reduced the durability consumption speed of all armor;
3. - Increased the max durability of all weapons;
4. - Now, creating arrows and bullets will grant you 20 pieces per attempt, and the price of arrows and bullets in the store has been lowered;

Fixes:

1. - Fixed a bug where arrows and bullets could not hit Rifter;
2. - Fixed a bug where night effects were displayed abnormally on 4K screens;
3. - Fixed a bug where Coopapa's ranged attack might track to the player's resurrection point after a player was killed by Coopapa;
