[p]Sprint toggle is now ON by default for all players [/p]

[h3]Sleep Menu Enhancements[/h3]

[p]Bar is selected by default when opening the Sleep Menu[/p]

[p]Players can now drag the sleep duration bar and press the (A) button to sleep for the chosen amount (If only getting your 8 hours was this easy in real life!)[/p]

[p]Controller users now see a clear button badge labelled “(A) Sleep” [/p]

[h3]Trading and Inventory Updates [/h3]

[p]Trade category buttons now feature a golden yellow icon to indicate the active selection[/p]

[h3]Healing and Repairing with NPCs [/h3]

[p]Removed all decimal points when displaying values for buying or selling services[/p]

[h3]PDA Improvements[/h3]

[p]Quest button now opens by default when accessing the PDA (swapped position with the Map button for easier navigation)[/p]

[p]Quest label formatting updated from “Quest Giver: NAMEHERE” to “Giver: NAMEHERE”[/p]

[p]Introduced a grid system for the map to reflect explored areas more clearly (development note: "Luca problem")[/p]

[h3]Map Selection and UI Changes[/h3]

[p]Selecting a map now instantly loads that map, removing the need for a separate “Go” button[/p]

[p]Map buttons now display the name of the location directly on or near the button[/p]

[p]Flavour text is displayed for the currently highlighted map to give more context and immersion[/p]

[p]That’s the rundown Hunters. Every tweak every fix every new feature in 1.2.1 was made to sharpen your edge out there. Whether you're bartering in the dust, creeping through the dark or catching a few hours of rest under a broken sky, these updates are built to keep you one step ahead in the Zone.
