Hi, everyone. Because we have recently been shifting our focus to developing a built-in MOD editor, redesigning the crop farming system, modifying the whole weaponry system, all of which are complicated, we’ve decided to hit the brakes a little on updates and maintenance. Your understanding would be much appreciated. Thank you all!

New Contents:

• • Shelter Tour Guide Flag: Using this flag causes surrounding refuge dwellers to follow you for a period of time.

Adjustments:

• • Reworked all Mining Pickaxe’s functions. Now, personal mounts with excessive mounting height will no longer prevent players from hunching downward to mine. At the same time, the mining range of Mining Pickaxe is now clearly visible to players, and precision mining is now supported (Use the right mouse button to switch);
• • Now, Hotbar’s item-select cursor will follow the direction of the mouse wheel as you scroll it in circles over and over, instead of locking-in on the initial and final selection box;
• • Now, Replica’s equipment damage prompts have been added.

Fixes:

• • Fixed the bug that prevents players from starting a conversation with WM-69 and replaying other plots after completing a stage.
