Patch fix. 11.11.25

[p][/p][p]Stalkers![/p][p][/p][p]The following changes were made along with the servers restart:[/p][p][/p][p]– We see players' desire to earn valuable rewards during the seasonal event and want to provide more opportunities to achieve this goal. To that end, we're increasing the chances of Dead Apples dropping from mutants and animals, as well as increasing the number of Dead Apples earned for participating in the "Mutant’s Shabash" event.[/p][p][/p][p]– Also, bags of Dead Apples have appeared in the in-game store for a limited time.[/p][p][/p][p]– Added radio state saving. Now, if you turn off the radio, exit the game, and then re-enter, it remains off.[/p][p][/p][p]– Removed the ability to eat Moss.[/p][p][/p][p]– Fixed an issue where the required number of animals and mutants would not spawn during in-game events.
[/p][p]– Fixed an issue where items, artifacts, or containers would appear on trees at a height inaccessible to the player.[/p][p][/p][p]– Fixed an issue where polar bears, peat spiders, and the Impenetrable would not spawn correctly.
[/p][p]– Fixed an issue with the stations at the Clan Headquarters. They no longer require a battery to operate.[/p][p][/p][p]– Fixed an issue where a level 2 clan could not purchase guards at the Clan Headquarters.[/p][p][/p][p]– Fixed an issue related to re-publishing a recruitment application for a clan.
[/p][p]– Fixed an issue that caused character animations to play incorrectly, resulting in the inability to control the character.[/p][p][/p][p]– Fixed an issue where some players would still see a dynamic event in the open world after it had completed.
[/p][p]– Fixed an issue related to incorrect magnification of the Soviet PSO-1 Scope.[/p][p][/p][p]– Fixed an issue that caused incorrect shooting when using a sight mounted on the side rail.[/p][p][/p][p]– Fixed an issue related to Base Trader at the “Garden partnership Lake” base. He can now correctly trade with solo players.
[/p][p]– Fixed an issue related to incorrect behavior underwater in the Caravan location.[/p][p][/p][p]– Fixed an issue related to the incorrect behavior of mutants and animals during the “Protection of Scientists” event.
[/p][p]– Fixed an issue where Goblins could be encountered in the forest – they have been replaced with Silvans.
[/p][p]– Fixed an issue related to the incorrect model of the “Lab Goblin” mutant.[/p][p][/p][p]– Fixed various typos in the text.[/p][p]
Sincerely,
Stay Out Team[/p]

Veles Night!

[p][/p][p]Stalkers![/p][p][/p][p]In the mysterious Zone, where anomalies give birth to miracles and survival often depends on luck, even the most unusual omens are not ignored. In recent days, faith has only grown stronger, as around campfires, people increasingly recall what our ancestors spoke of – the legend of a single night a year when the borders between worlds are practically erased, allowing the shadows of something ancient and evil to pass through.[/p][p][/p][p]Watchful stalkers note the appearance of pagan totems. At a special hour, when the world seems to stand still and one day gives way to another, these obelisks begin to attract evil spirits and mutants – highly unwelcome guests for large settlements, near which these unusual idols are observed.[/p][p][/p][p]Another belief is also becoming reality – the debauchery of a whole coven of evil spirits who gather for mischief and the acquisition of the coveted Dead Apples. Rumor has it that it is at this time that they acquire their mystical powers.[/p][p][/p][p]For some, these fruits are a way to ward off misfortune, while others see them as the price of an invasion by dark forces. The bravest even dare to taste them! Perhaps Priest, who is located near Gourmet Village in Liubech Outskirts, can tell you more about them...[/p][p][/p][p]From 21.10 (12:00 server time) to 18.11 (23:59 server time), the "Veles Night" event will begin on all project servers![/p][p]You can find out the time on your server by entering the /time command in chat.[/p][p][/p][p]During the event, all animals and mutants, when searched or butchered, have a chance to contain a Dead Apple. You can also earn them by participating in the open-world event and the new PvP mode on the Bulletin Board.[/p][p]Apples can be exchanged for valuable rewards with Priest (E6-4), in Liubech Outskirts.[/p][p][/p][p]Note: Exchange with Priest will be available after the server restart on 21.10.[/p][p][/p][p]In addition, you can find pleasant discounts on many items in the in-game store![/p][p][/p][p]Good luck in your search![/p][p][/p][p]Sincerely,[/p][p]Stay Out Team[/p]
