Free New Weapon! And Save Game Size Reduction
Hello Ghoul Hunters!
Thank you all for your continued support! As a token of my gratitude, I added a new weapon to the game:
It's a Tier 3 weapon, which means you can find it on enemies at Lake Cheko and beyond, and also at times sold by Grigori in Lake Cheko.
In addition, to make pistols more useful, I have made the Wooden Shield available to use along side a pistol, just like the Iron Mike from Nightmare mode. So you can equip it on your primary/secondary slot while having a pistol on the other. However, the wooden shield has less bullet blocking capability than the Iron Mike. You can see that it now shows an Armor rating of 17. It can block most shotgun pellets and pistol bullets, but rifle bullets will go right through, although the damage to player will be reduced.
If you haven't used the Iron Mike before, the shield can only block bullets if you hold a pistol with it while aiming down sight and facing the attacker. However, you don't have to aim down sight to reduce damage from an explosive in front of the player.
Also, in this build I improved the json serialization which will reduce save game file sizes by over 60%!
Other fixes in 1.88-3:
- Fixed a bug introduced in 1.88-2 where the game will break when spawning baba yagas in NG+
- Fixed a bug where a newly spawned character will show its highlight through walls even when player doesn't have visibility to this character
- Fixed a bug where high quality fish and caviar will show double quality prefix
- Quality prefixes will now show up on the name tag of items on the ground
