Howdy, hunters!

We know many of you have been asking us to fix old bugs so we have been listening and decided to tackle one of the most annoying bugs in the game - one that many of you have reported and asked us to fix.

[h2]"Un-harvestable Animal" Bug[/h2]
So today we are happy to announce that we are releasing a patch that fixes the infamous "un-harvestable animal" bug, an issue where some players were unable to harvest killed animals. This happened both in singleplayer and multiplayer, as well as during a "second day hunt" - just to mention the most frequent scenarios. This should be gone for good now and you won't lose your animals and trophies anymore!

Please note that there is a similar, yet much rarer issue that we call "zombie animals" whereas when you shoot an animal it still looks at you and cannot be killed or harvested. This is a very rare issue and we are still looking into it.

We've also fixed few competitions and missions according to your recent reports. Feel free to report more.

[h2]Competitions[/h2]

• We've removed all "Members only" competitions from the schedule as these were duplicated of "Non-members". Also removed any mentions of membership there to avoid confusion.
  
• Objectives of "Yin and Yang" competition have been fixed. It should work as it stays in the description now.
  
• Objectives of "The Fur-midable Foe" competition have been fixed. Common color variation is not calculated anymore as per description.
  
• Description of "Get A Grip" competition have been fixed. It stated that the highest score wins, but actually it is the highest weight.
  

[h2]Missions[/h2]

• Objectives of "Supernatural Ninja" ("Red Fox Missions" pack) have been fixed. "Red Dragon" Compound Bow is now allowed to complete it.
  
• Objectives of "Witchcraft? No. Science!" ("Sambar Deer Missions" pack) have been fixed. Added dependencies for each objective according to description of the mission.
  

Something strange is going on in Whitehart Island and Settler Creeks, have you noticed yet? If you haven't, be sure to go out for a hunt in those reserves as this year's April Fools event has just been extended for the whole weekend! ːsteamhappyː

Howdy, hunters!
We know most of your expectations are about the new species announced during last month's stream, but it's a taking a bit longer to cook than we expected - so please bear with us (no pun intended!).

In the meantime, we are releasing a small patch to keep things rolling and hopefully keep you happy too.
Here is the changelog:

✅ TURKEY

🔹 Fixed beak and snood positions issue during trophy shot.
🔹 Beard does not disappear inside the body during trophy shot anymore.
🔹 Internal organs' size and location have been fixed, which should improve accuracy with hitboxes.

✅ 12 GA Blaser F3 Game O/U Shotgun

🔹 Barrel was still crooked in prone position - fixed now.

✅ COMPETITIONS

🔹 Some competitions header images still featured old animals (Turkey, Black Bear and Brown Bear). They are now fixed and updated. Please let us know if there are still any that should be updated.
🔹 "Biggest Canada Goose - Started" competition's description was incorrect. - fixed.

✅ MISSIONS

🔹 "A Shocking Turn of Events" mission had incorrect objectives, it can now be correctly completed.
🔹 "Sambar deer Mission #2 - Sample Analysis" mission had incorrect objectives description - fixed now.

Last but by not by any means least, here's a very cool video from Master Hunter & Content creator HooCairs showcasing some of the fixes.
Enjoy! :-)
