BUG FIXES & CHANGES
Economy / Item Recover
All Tunnels, Ashen Mesa, and Scorched Enclave are free to fast travel to once they have been visited at least once.
Manufacture times for elements commonly used for gameplay have been reduced or outright eliminated.
Credit rewards for quests have been increased.
If a Scav dies in a tunnel, their tombstone is now placed near the checkpoint drone / campfire.
AI
HKs are no longer summoned based on loot alone with a few key exceptions such as collecting boss parts.
Enemy AI respawn and spawn rates have been adjusted in the tunnels.
Recruit AI will no longer get lost or stuck in the tunnels: they now avoid the tunnels and wait for you on the surface / in the next region.
A fix was put in for some cases where the Opal would disappear immediately after arriving.
Drones no longer clip with the moving lifts in the tunnels that have said lifts.
Additional logic for recruit AI to make sure they spawn near the player
Movement / Navigation
Many of the “worst-case” navigation / jumping areas of the tunnels have been adjusted to be more forgiving.
Stamina costs have been adjusted to better fit the risk/reward balance of movement and combat.
Misc
The Shaman can now see the name of the area that will be accessed for each extraction point on both the compass and in-world.
The Kotleta Codex’s drop rate and location logic has been adjusted.
An additional check has been added to remove rare cases where the Octogirl / Mother Courage dialogue interface wouldn’t properly display the ask-question prompt.
