Dear Ghoul Hunters,

Thank you for your patience while I work on this big update! One of the most common feedback I received from players is that there are too many recipes scatters across different note papers and recipe books, making it inconvenient when managing all these recipes.

Recipe Clipbook For All Recipes

So I decided to enhance the Recipe Clipbook to include four tabs:

• Serum
• Food
• Distiller (a crafting station added in Ravenwood DLC)
• Workbench

Whenever you discover a new recipe either from loot or purchasing from traders, once you right click it to display the text, this recipe will be added to the Recipe Clipbook. The clipbook is added to player's backpack as soon as the player arrives at Zernaskaya village.

When you go to any crafting station, the game will automatically open the recipe clipbook in your backpack and display the relevant recipes, and you can click "Ingredients" button to collect ingredients from your backpack.

And here's the most exciting part: the recipes you record in the clilpbook will be now be carried over to NG+!

Global Map

I also added a global map which you can open by clicking M and then select the "Global" tab. This map shows the regions you have visited along with the paths between them. It looks like this:

German Translation

The German translation for the game is currently underway! Thanks to two Ghoul Hunters who have been working very hard on translating 70k+ words in the game. There are still some work left to do, and if you would like to help, please let me know by PM or joining my discord:

1000 Reviews, Almost There!

It has always been a dream of mine to reach the milestone of 1000 reviews. And it's almost there! If you have a moment, please feel free to jot down a few words for me :)

More Enhancements in 1.87

• Increased serum ingredients stack size to 20

• The motorcycle is now available for everyone! But you have to find the key first (it's in Lake Cheko somewhere!). If you have already started a new game before this update, you can use the motorcycle at anytime even if you don't have the key. If you start a NG+ game, the key will be available to you at the beginning of the game.

• Some players have reported stutter when first engaging in combat. I suspect that it's due to slow IO with certain harddrives while the game tries to load the gun sounds and battlecries. In this update these sounds will be preloaded when you enter an area.

• Added a condition check so that you can't bring the serum to Boris too early.

• The Sanatorium stealth quest (after you get knocked out) can now be skipped. But not so easily! You would have to complete the Water Treatment Plant quest without being seen by the hostile NPCs there, in order to prevent them from setting the trap in Ashinaka.

• Added a warning when you load a save that has been played with a different language.

• Added an option to adjust the cursor movement speed when using gamepad.

• Crowbar is now slightly better at chopping trees.

• When you click the "Collect Ingredients" button during crafting, it'll also set the required temperature so you don't have to.

• Slightly reduced the eyesight of enemies who are guarding or patrolling at night.

• You can now climb through the window of the hangar in Station 11 so that you can avoid running into the Scythes... for now.

• Made sure to check the file extensions of the MP3 music files in the Radio folder in case player puts any non-MP3 files there which can cause game to crash.

• If player crouches when leaving an area, after loading the new area, player will stay crouched

• Fixed a bug with the journal entry not popping up when you wake up in the Sanatorium. Also you will automatically crouch when you wake up.

• Added more perks for reaching 100% reputation with factions, including more trader money, lower prices, and rare ammo.

• The news story from Haruko about her father will no longer be required for the Pulitzer achievement.

• Fixed a bug with workbench buttons not enabled correctly when you add more ammo to the stack for dismantling.

• NPCs will pause bleeding when player is very far from them, because at that point their AI is paused too and can't self-heal.

• Fixed a bug with holding G to throw a throwing knife doesn't display the throw angle indicator.

• Travelling with the rail car will allow player to press A/D/Dpad/Arrow Keys to cycle through destinations.

• Fixed an inconvenience with the player custom notes, where as soon as you click on the notes it'll highlight the entire text.
