Winds Shift, Pockets Fill, and Bobby Walks Away

The desert doesn't rest, and neither do we. This update brings a wave of useful fixes, fresh features, and subtle changes that make life in the wasteland a little more intense — and a little more survivable. From visual upgrades to smarter inventory behavior, and from new combat feedback to the temporary farewell of the Wasteland Games, patch 0.6.4 is all about refining your fight under the scorched sky.

New Features
- Player Damage Numbers
You can now toggle visible damage numbers in the Settings. Turn them on to track every hit — or off to keep it clean and immersive. - Two New Hotbar Slots
By default, your hotbar now includes two additional slots for faster, more flexible loadouts. - Windy Dust Effect
A new random environmental effect adds dusty gusts to your travels, enriching the atmosphere. - Experimental Heat Distortion
A shimmering visual effect simulates extreme heat waves. Optional in Settings. - Bug Report Button
Found directly in the main menu — letting you report bugs faster and easier. - Whetstone Merge
You can now merge multiple Whetstones into one to consolidate condition.






Fixes and Improvements

- Fixed an issue where you couldn't craft using stacks larger than 255.
- Death-Proof Pocket now always appears at the top of your inventory.
- Fixed bugged storage containers and UI freezing in inventory.
- Fixed custom crosshair colors resetting.
- Fixed item transfer from storage to inventory not working properly.
- Fixed overly small lootable animal corpses.
- Fixed TOS units aiming too high with guns.
- Fixed too-small no-build zones around underground hideouts.
- Fixed quest text referencing Frank instead of Ammo Ace Jackson.
- Improved item pickup priority when looting: backpack and waist bag are now used first, keeping your Death-Proof Pocket for what matters most.
- Fixed LOD distances for Nopal plants.

Visual Updates
- Updated 3D models for the Plastic Bottle and Old Oil Flacon.
- Fat Mike now has a new model — same junkyard boss, sharper look.

Wasteland Games – A Pause, Not an End
The Wasteland Games have ended for now, but their mark remains.Bobby Winado has left Frank and Ron’s camp. You’ll now find him at Ammo Ace Jackson’s Farm, where he’ll still accept your remaining WG Chips for trade. While the desert yeti, escaped clones, and chupacabra still roam, they no longer drop WG Chips.

The only transport still moving them is the golden truck — keep an eye on it if you're hunting down the last bits of WG loot.

The Games will return. When? No one knows. But they’re not gone forever.
Thanks for surviving with us. Your feedback, passion, and grit make this game what it is. Stay cool, stay dangerous, and keep spreading the dust.
