Dear Junkers! 🔧😄

This update may look small on paper, but it addresses several key issues and makes the overall experience smoother and more enjoyable.


🔧 What I fixed & improved

♻️ Camera Teleportation, Input Lag & Desync
I fixed issues related to camera teleportation and added patches that reduce input lag and desynchronization. Controls and in-game reactions should now feel more predictable and responsive.

📻 Radio
I fixed an issue where music would continue playing after pressing stop because ambient sounds were triggered.
I added a tooltip that explains this behavior when hovering over the stop button.

🌫️ Fog Effect
I reduced the strength of the fog effect, which was previously too strong. Visibility now feels more natural, and the effect is less overwhelming.

🙏 Thank you
Thank you to everyone who reported issues and shared feedback — your input directly helped me implement these fixes 💛


More improvements, optimizations, and new features are already in the works — stay tuned! 🚀

We’re continuously working on improving both gameplay systems and localization quality.

Thank you for being part of the journey — more updates are coming! 🚀

The game is constantly being developed — I strongly recommend checking the integrity of the game files!


Massive junkyard hugs from your favorite rust whisperer —

Junkman Adrian 😎🛠️💛
