[h2]📢 Notification of Known Issues for November 24th, 2022 📢[/h2]

[h3]📌 Recently resolved or reflected 📌[/h3]
✅ Fixed an intermittent server crash issue
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬Immediately after the service opened, the abnormal client crash issue that hindered the
　　play of survivors was resolved through 2 emergency maintenance procedures, and the lag
　　and frame drop issue will also be resolved through continual optimization work.

✅ Fixed an issue where stored items were deleted when retrieving sleeping bags.

✅ Fixed an issue where NPCs reaction to sound was awkward.

✅ Fixed to prevent abuse of the Hyena Portal Base and Delta Plant facility central building collision.

[h3]🚧 Issues to be fixed in the next update 🚧[/h3]

❗ The time of application of these fixes may be delayed due to the priority of the update preparation process, but they will all be applied as soon as possible.

🔧 Scheduled to optimize the lagging(rubber banding) issue occurring on some servers

🔧 The issue of abnormally decreasing ranking
　　💬We are in the process of restoring points that have decreased abnormally,
　　but please keep in mind that some omissions may occur.

🔧 The issue where vehicles owned by other players could be used without ownership

🔧 Hunger reduction mitigation system to be introduced in residences(housing)
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬In situations where survivors are away due to various reasons, we are making improvements
　　so that hunger status effects lessen in player bases with a building core installed and powered.
　　We think seeing the death screen after a long phone call with a close friend should occur
　　less often this way!

[h3]🔍 Content being fixed or being prepared 🔍[/h3]
⬜ Issues with installations being installed improperly
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬We are considering improvements for issues such as not being able to place items like
　　a workbench very close to the walls or automatically aligning depending on the direction
　　the character is standing.

⬜ Changing existing settings for Single Player mode
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬We are considering a modification function for survivors who must have been frustrated
　　because it was impossible to change the settings in the middle of Single Player mode.
　　You can change the Single Player mode settings by modifying the contents of the file located
　　in the folder below.
　　- Folder location: >\Dysterra\Dysterra\WorldSettings\SinglePlay.json

⬜ Planned improvements to the long crafting time of forges
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬The existing balance was set to encourage the forges to operate automatically while
　　the player explores the world and loots major bases and facilities, but we are considering
　　introducing the ‘Forge Upgrade System’ as quickly as possible to incorporate opinions
　　from players. We will be back soon with better and hopefully more intuitive forges.

⬜ Issue where daily missions are not achieved while riding a vehicle

Greetings from Orbis!

I can’t believe it!!! It’s finally here!!!!!!
In only a few hours, Dysterra will be released into Early Access.

Thank you all for your support and help during the long development process. We would have never come this far without you.

It’s taken years of hard work to get here, and we hope you love what we’ve made so far. Of course this is Early Access, so we’ll be adding new elements and improvements to the game on a regular basis.

This week we’ve added steam achievements, some more story elements, a new single-player ending, and more details and functionality to journal entries. We’ve also made damage types (energy/physical) a more integral part of the game.

[h2]📒 In-Game Achievements[/h2]
We’ve linked steam achievements to your in-game profile so now you can show off your highest-tier achievements to your friends.


[h2]📒 Damage Types[/h2]
Up until now, the choice between using physical ammo or energy ammo was simply a matter of preference, but now it’s an important part of gameplay progression.

We’ve implemented damage types to enemies, so you’ll need to consider which gun to take with you on your next outing. If you’re going up against some biological enemies like Hyena troops or just going out to hunt for meat, then physical ammo is what you want. But if you’re going to be taking down dozens of Orbis robots, you’ll want to bring along an energy-type weapon.

[h2]📒 Story & LORE![/h2]
Now that we have the gameplay figured out. We’re working hard on adding depth to Dysterra’s in preparation for our official release down the road.

Over your next few playthroughs, you’ll notice a few new details being spoken by Vanessa and NPCs during specific events throughout the world, so keep your ears peeled over the coming weeks and months as we develop and implement little details to add depth to the world of Dysterra.

[h2]📒 3 Separate Endings! (in Single-Player mode)[/h2]
There are now three separate endings in single player mode. I don’t want to spoil the fun of finding them.

But for all of you out there that love a good hint, here’s a picture:


[h2]📒 More Detailed Journal Entries[/h2]

The journal is an essential element to any survival game, and we wanted to make our journal a place where you can find the information you need, when you need it. We’ve changed the UI quite a bit, so now you get more information at a glance.

You can even click a button in the journal entry to immediately move to the crafting screen where you can start making the item you were looking at.


You can even turn the tutorial (mission guide) on and off by checking/unchecking the box on the top left of the journal screen.

Thank you again for all of the encouragement and support you’ve given us so far. I look forward to seeing you all on the servers tomorrow!

[h2]📌Known Issue and Feature upvote operation Notice[/h2]
Additionally, we would like to thank all of the survivors who left various opinions even before the start of Early Access.

We are preparing the Known Issue Notice and operation of the Feature Upvote website so that survivors with various opinions can conveniently check issues and leave comments much more easily.

Please check below for details.

[Known Issue Notice]
This is a notice to disclose the thoughts of the Dev team regarding errors that occur while installing or playing the game, in-game bugs, or status(progress) to suggestions.

The Known issue notice will be announced as often as possible according to the progress of reports from survivors.

[Feature Upvote Operation]
We plan to introduce Feature Upvote to manage survivors' suggestions more systematically.
Among the suggestions collected through various communities, those requiring additional comments will be published in Feature Upvote.
Of course, you can also leave your comments directly on the Feature Upvote.

* What is Feature Upvote?
Feature Upvote is a website where Admin or survivors directly register their suggestions and share their opinions. There is an upvote(recommendation) and a comment function.

Valuable information from survivors serves as a foundation for making Dysterra more interesting.
Many comments are appreciated.

Good luck staying alive out there!!
