The Infected News

Hi everyone!

Just a few more fixes and changes. We also added a few more build parts that were completed and tested. Please note that these new build parts will be missing translations and will be added in the very near future.


FIXED - Moving the NPC house and Town Hall would create duplicate doors.
FIXED - Missing footstep sounds when walking/running with a fishing pole.
FIXED - Using the shield when holding the torch would result in the flame floating in thin air.
FIXED - Potential fix for those experiencing lag when crouching.
FIXED - Occasionally when AI were attacking bases, they would get stuck on objects. This would cause lag and in some cases crash the engine.
FIXED - Idle AI in the wild sometimes seen. This issue happens when a landclaim pole is deleted and the AI get into a broken state because they no longer have a link to a landclaim pole. All AI now deleted if the pole is deleted.

CHANGE - The speed at which the noise and light meters fill has been capped. This will result in attacks occurring in durations no shorter than every 20 minutes in real time. (Currently attacks can occur every 2-3 minutes with multiple light/noise sources.)

ADDED - Single ramp railing.
ADDED - Flat Ramp (useful as truck/atv ramps)
ADDED - Interior Window wall.

Hi everyone!

Just a few more fixes and changes. We also added a new railing build part that can be placed on ramps/stairs.

FIXED - Truck speed and brakes.
FIXED - RMB on dead birds would enable cursor forcing players to open/close inventory or some other action that removes the cursor.
FIXED - RMB on the stone grinder would raise shield when taking the items from it.
FIXED - A floating cliff section, was hovering above the landscape.
CHANGE - Concrete Ramp mesh changed.
CHANGE - Wooden Ramp snap location change. This will make a stairwell appear to have one smooth and continuous line, as opposed to the previous version which looked slightly more disjointed



ADDED - Wooden Ramp Railing

This railing can be upgraded to concrete just like other railings using cement and the upgrade tool.
4 x logs to construct in wood.
8 x cement to upgrade to concrete.

Hi everyone!

Just a few more fixes.

FIXED - Mike would sometimes get stuck on gate doors while they are opening and closing. I disable door collisions when the open/close animation is being executed.
FIXED - Placing chests and crates on the truck would cause it to sink into the ground and not drive.
FIXED - Issue when trying to move watermelon and pumpkin crates.
FIXED - Mike would sometimes have pathing issues and not use gates, forcing him to be stuck and think there is no way out.

Hi everyone!

Just a few more fixes and changes.

FIXED - AI lag spikes when they attack player bases should now pretty much be resolved.
FIXED - The ATV would occasionally flip, catapult under the level causing it to be destroyed and unrecoverable by the player. We now added a check for this occurrence and respawn the ATV (with the map marker refreshed) at the lighthouse.
FIXED - Could delete a land claim pole if a ghost of something that requires a pole is within its range. Players could then proceed to build said ghost without a pole and that could cause some issue.
FIXED - Could drive the truck on ghost foundations.
CHANGE - Rain sound volume reduced a tad.
CHANGE - Storage Chest mesh changes and re textured.
CHANGE - After users reported Mike completing tasks in strange places (like cutting trees from inside homes), his behavior has been adjusted. He will no longer carry out certain tasks if there is no path to his destination. Mike will require a way out of the base and/or defensive perimeter to complete his task(s). Gates or another type of opening are required.
CHANGE - Wooden Gate HP increased from 400 to 750.

Hi everyone,

This hotfix update is to primarily address an issue with AI causing lag when attacking player bases.

FIXED - Lag when getting attacked by AI at player bases. This fix is temporary and will be perfected and optimized even more in the next few days.
FIXED - Map related issues, some floating cliffs, bad placement or certain objects.
FIXED - Small Ration duplication bug when adding them to the fridge. These should have never had the ability to be added to fridges, just like regular rations. They have no perish time and can just be stored in chests.
