Update v0.5.2

Playtest build updated!

A few more balance and bug fixes to tighten up the gameplay experience!

Balance:
  • Jerky hunger replenishment lowered and given slight negative thirst replenishment
  • Increased effectiveness of small stone and flint as a hammer
  • Increased generation of long sticks in forests
  • Reduced evaporation rates of jug and pot
  • Reduced starting blight infection amounts of all creatures
  • Various building build times changed to provide a more consistent experience based on how big they are physically
Fixes:
  • Meat strips now properly require the smoke rack to be smoked, no longer gets smoked in the ingredients section of the fire pit (or other heated inventories)
  • Fix contamination not being preserved when grinding meat or cutting it into slices, as well as when slices of meat are fully smoked into jerky
  • Fix weird issue where crafting list buttons disappear in certain UI scale modes and 4K+ resolutions
  • Fix up the cut-off main menu in ultra-widescreen setups by changing the UI resolution based scaling to be height based instead of width based
  • Fix right-click -> "drink all" not working with the equipped bowl/container at the bottom of the screen beside the stat bars
  • Fix issue where fire pit and fuel wouldn't be affected by the rain if close enough to a lean-to
Features:
  • Backpacks can be placed on the ground now to act as a storage area like the crate and chests
  • Held containers like the jug can now be poured directly into the soaking basin using the alternate interaction (default: left alt) without having to go through the UI
Other changes:
  • Flip yes/no buttons on all dialogs to be more consistent with common UX patterns. Buttons made more clear at a glance by changing yes/no to "action" and cancel.
