- Changed the starting location on the Island of Hope. Now it is more spacious and suitable for building a long-term camp. We also increased the number of basic resources there including small sticks and stones.
Note: if you had any buildings/items located within this area before the patch, they may conflict with the new surroundings. Unfortunately, the only solution in this case would be to rebuild them.
- Now there are ten items from which to choose at the prologue, we also added an Improved Fishing Rod. Living Water was replaced with a medical kit that includes Clay and Egg Ointment to heal wounds, Powder from Snakes and Spiders to treat all forms of poisoning, Sweating Potion to treat flu and Coral Powder that restores health points. Pistol now has 25 bullets (instead of 10).
- Balanced sailing on the global map. Changed the speed of time, vitals declining, as well as clothes degrading when sailing, so now traveling between islands should feel more pleasant.
- You can now roast short-eared dogs’ carcasses and eat them. Short-eared dogs don’t drop resources anymore.
- The player marker on the map is now displayed even if the player is in a territory they have not mapped beforehand, so following the map is much easier now.
- Water doesn't completely evaporate in water sources (they are called water storages now), so there will always be at least several drops of water left when you come to it.
- Added visual tips appearing on the screen when a player receives their first injury, experiences the first illness or worsening of the disease, etc. We hope that this feature will help players understand and learn how the game works.
- You can’t catch Malaria or receive a cold effect on the Island of Hope now.
- Increased borders around the islands, so now you can go further distances from the shore without switching to the global map.
- Changed the animation of Smoke Signal, now it looks more natural.
- Added coral reefs near the Island of Hope.
- Numerous balance and localization fixes.
