Hotfix #5 Now Live

Greetings scientists,

We have a new hotfix NOW LIVE on Steam that addresses a wide range of issues reported.

Thank you to everyone who sent over their logs for the hunger, thirst and oxygen meters not dropping under specific circumstances. They have been helping us narrow down and pinpoint what's causing it. We believe we have a potential fix in today's build, but we can't verify if it's working correctly. Keep speaking to us and let us know if it's worked or if it's still an issue.

Here are the full patchnotes...

ADDED:

• Added the keybind option for turning devices on and off.

CHANGED:

• Changed how vitals drain behaves after death. Main vitals drain effects are now paused when the player is marked as dead instead of being removed entirely.
• Audio fixes on Power Generators
• Performance optimized on the Hideout landmark.
• Optimized the Small Town.
• Optimized Greenhouse Tower.
• Optimized Temporary Camp.
• Optimized cooked and raw item setups.

• Fixed an issue where the Distiller could become stuck and could no longer be removed or used.
• Fixed poor UI scaling for loading save games in some languages, including German and Spanish.
• Fixed an invisible Lightning Flash widget that could still be clicked when the Display Lightning Flash option was turned off.
