The Infected News

Hi everyone,

A few more fixes and changes.

FIXED - When Diggers lose their shield its as if they did not and would still block.
FIXED - Quite a few AI bugs related to them getting into your base without destroying defenses. In some scenarios they would jump over fencing or even teleport through.
FIXED - A bunch of Mike related issues. Please let us know if you still see Mike issues after this update is installed.
FIXED - A bug where crafting from the itempedia book would sometimes remove more items than necessary from the players backpack.
FIXED - Some bad cliff mesh placements.
FIXED - Could delete Mikes house leaving him in a bad state on game reload.
FIXED - Can no longer drive the ATV while moving objects. You can still do so while holding animals, mike, food etc.
CHANGE - Removed most blocking volumes ontop of mountains, some wanted to build up there but at your own risk. There are many places to get stuck up there but with the new suicide button, I feel better about letting you guys up there.
CHANGE - Made foundations always buildable if overlapping other base building parts. This may lead to some strange looking placements but will give players more freedom. Especially when trying to add foundations under other parts that got destroyed.
CHANGE - T to flip/reset Thruck has now been changed to P like the ATV.
CHANGE - Increased size of the minions to be a bit taller.
CHANGE - Diggers skin textures color change to be less green.
CHANGE - Reduce ATV sounds volume.
CHANGE - New Vapir mini boss mesh with a long coat.
ADDED - New AI mesh imported to fix some skinning issues with animations.

Hi everyone,

A few more fixes and changes.

FIXED - Some more floating cliffs.
FIXED - Could not repair the barn.
FIXED - Using the suicide button while in god mode would start the depletion stats function.
FIXED - Issue with Mike sometimes getting stuck and teleporting into areas that he should not have. This would result in Mike vanishing from the Map. To fix this, I check to see if mike is stuck and if so he will be teleported back to a safe spot near his bed.
CHANGE - Some changes/balancing to damage dealt on spike traps and barbed wired by the Mini Bosses.

Hi everyone,

CHANGE - Can now chop those dead logs on the map. They were sometimes in the way and could not be removed. They also give 8 Firewood.

Hi everyone,

A few more fixes and changes.

FIXED - Bug when moving objects into another land claim pole. The association to the new pole was not being set.
CHANGE - Can now move land claim poles as long as all the objects in it remain in range.
