Waterfall Valley is packed with gold — nearly 10 times the amount of Nighthawk. You’ll make your investment back in no time, but we understand that not everyone has the time to gather 25,000,000$.

  • [Fixed] Cordylus will consume fuel while the belt is running.
  • [Fixed] Cordylus won't move in repair mode
  • [Fixed] Cordylus shouldn't collide with ground with it's back, what was causing it to slide when driving
  • [Fixed] Incorrect "not enough space" notification header removed.
  • [Fixed] Pop-up blocking Orange Beast transportation to non-DLC claims now displays correctly.
  • [Fixed] Electric socket in cabin should work at all times now.
