Update 0.4.30
Update 0.4.30 is out, bringing new features, balance changes, and fixes.

New:

  • The Military Boss now has new weapons: XM8 L1 machine gun, SCAR-H rifle, M4, and M16.

  • The item turn-in system has been improved: you can now instantly see how much loot is required and how much you already have; if you’re missing items, the selection button is disabled.

  • The event icons for Card Collection (gold card) and Summer Marathon (star) now appear on the main screen; the star indicates that the battle pass is active.

  • Clay and sand have been added to the quarry.

  • An Engineer has appeared in the Chemists’ yard, selling the same goods as Tony.

  • A bear has been added to the plateau — a new dangerous threat.

  • A save zone has been added at the cave exit leading to the plateau.

  • The artifacts Strong Heart and Hedgehog now have fixed world spawn locations and 3 rarity tiers with different stats.

  • The slot weight indicator now changes color dynamically: green (light), yellow (~5 kg), red (10+ kg); the dumbbell icon size also reacts to weight.

Changes:

  • The rarity color for speed artifacts has been changed for better visibility when modded and worn on the belt.

  • Minor map tweaks.

  • Valera’s trade interface has been improved with a faster return to the goods list.

  • The AKS-74U has been visually improved.

  • Weapon info on the main screen is now visible even when entering the optical sight.

  • Some of the new weapons (from version 0.4.29) now require a certain reputation level to buy.

  • The number of marauders in the hangars near their base and at Warehouse No. 4 has been reduced; the remaining ones have been strengthened by level.

  • Rewards for handing in goods to NPCs have been adjusted, and some items have been removed from sale.

  • Ammo hand-ins have been removed from Gleb.

  • All crafting windows now show an image of the item being crafted.

Fixes:

  • Charcoal crafting has been fixed — it is now crafted at the workbench.

  • Nicholas and the Barman dialogue/trade issues have been fixed.

  • Fire rate exploit fixed: click-spamming has been removed — you can no longer fire before the weapon is ready; the fire rate shown in the stats is now a hard minimum, the weapon won’t fire by itself, but it also won’t let you shoot too early.

  • Incorrect prices on the guide board have been fixed.

  • Painkillers now work correctly — the effect is instant.

  • Added a description to the quest “Clouded Conscience.”

  • Walking on the tent is now forbidden.

Miscellaneous:

  • You can now get into a car from the passenger seat as well.

  • The translation warning has been removed in the settings for Russian; it remains for other languages.

  • Some garage sizes have been increased for easier vehicle use.
