This update focuses on sound effects, music and voice acting. Most of the sound effects have been reworked, including the sounds for opening crates, as the frequency of opening these objects and the monotonous sounds could irritate the player's hearing. A gramophone was introduced, which will allow you to listen to music on the train, if the player misses the background music. To do this, the player will have to look for records hidden in all locations. At the moment, voice acting for the English and Russian versions has been implemented. In case you do not want to listen to voice acting, you can turn it off in the audio settings menu.
Also, the ability for zombies to block and therefore push the player was temporarily disabled, this will avoid pushing the player through the walls. This feature will be disabled until I resolve the popping issue.
An interesting technology has been implemented for buildings and trains, now, when entering them, the sound of the surrounding nature effects will fade, while the open doors in the building will be taken into account. Especially well this function conveys the comfort of your train when it is raining outside.
