Thanks to the community members who have been with us on this important work since The The Pioneers launch! You're awesome!

[h3]Gameplay[/h3]

• Reworked the climbing system to match the same ergonomics as the jumping feature: limited range based on the athleticism skill and pathfinding considerations. This major overhaul should eliminate most of the bugs encountered with this complex feature.

• Added a visual effect when collecting sulfur
• Updated the fire VFX

[h3]Performance[/h3]

• Implemented a system to remove 3D terrain models that are not visible on screen to improve overall game performance
