Hello Survivors!

Quite a big patch. New Pinewood, new ammo system, new achievements and lots more!

Read below for the full changelog.



Pinewood needed some love. It was boring and looked awful. I took the time to remake it and now it features a full city.


There are now 5 types of ammo for you to pick up around the world.

- Pistol Ammo
- SMG Ammo
- AR Ammo
- Shotgun Ammo
- Sniper Ammo

This should also simplify all weapon types and their ammo types. No longer need 2 AR Rifles with 2 different ammo types.

All recipes have also been updated to reflect the new change. Simply craft the ammo you want and it will store in the "ammo inventory"

You will lose all ammo on death. Dropped next to your body per stack.

Picking up ammo will automatically fill your ammo count in the respective category.

To drop or store the ammo, simply click the icon on the side inside of inventory.


Death boxes removed, your body will now explode all your loot when you die.


It didn't make much sense starting players off on Level 0. This patch fixes this. Players start at Level 1, and work their way up to Level 10.

Overall XP gains have been increased throughout the game as well as Pallets now giving XP and cash.


New achievements have been added to the game, ranging from getting legendries to gambling.

Hello Survivors!

New workbenches, new safe zone, balance and more!

Read below for the full changelog.

Thanks for playing!


Workbenches have changed. Workbenches are now limited to ONE per player, thus stopping one or two people claiming the entire island. If you place another workbench, your old workbench will be deleted. This will help if you cannot get to your workbench (IE raided).

This may increase to 2 per player over the next update. I'll keep an eye on it.


Another Safe Zone added near the airfield to help spread out the players. I'm seeing a lot of safe zone camping so adding another one will help spread the players out.

It is random which Safe Zone you get. You cannot choose.


Salah has moved to the new Safe Zone.

As always the full changelog is at the bottom. Thanks for playing!
