Hi! This patch addresses some issues that were brought to our attention after the deployment of 1.04. Here are the patch notes!

Balance

• Re-balanced the detection settings for all characters based on character type
  
• Removed nail and glass requirements for the door recipe
  
• Removed nail requirement for wall recipe
  

Bugs

• Fixed bug that re-tagged structure parts, walls, doors, and windows as new each time a new recipe is picked up
  
• Fixed crash being caused by mousing over the Strong Mer Shoes
  
• Removing a trunk that has trunk drawers now returns the drawers to the inventory
  
• Party members commanded to flee while inside caves will now be set to "Away" rather than dying if they manage to run into a pit
  
• Updated description for Strong Mer Helmet (it said you could use it to breathe underwater but this ability will be added to it in a future update)
  
• Updated Home Customization Menu to be left justified, which prevents it from conflicting with deploying store items under certain conditions

Home Defense Gameplay
Enemies now have the ability to "Detect" the player when they are hiding inside a structure and may try to force their way in. Detection is only possible when both the player and the enemy are within the "Detect Radius" of a Wall, Door or Window. The Detect Radius is different for each wall type.

Wall: Small Detect Radius
Door: Medium Detect Radius
Window: Large Detect Radius (The player can attack mobs and vice versa through windows. This allows the player to throw grenades out of the window to kill attacking mobs.)

If the player is detected, monsters will begin attacking the structure, damaging the walls. Players can cancel the aggro of monsters attacking a structure by exiting the structure, but detection will be renewed if players re-enter the structure and re-enter the detect radius that a mob is standing in.

Repairing Damaged Walls
The player can repair damaged wall simply by attacking the wall.
Currently walls have 1000 hit points
Each wall repair costs one oak log and will repair the wall approximately 25% of its total health.
NOTE: Windows cannot be repaired. They must be replaced.

Interface

• Added a player status effects indicator above the armor meter of the HUD (useful when you are immortal inside of a crowd of enemies)
  
• Added a no teleporters warning upon entering a tile map where teleporters are not allowed
  
• Added Option to turn off Camera Shake
  

Bug Fixes

Hi. We are getting reports that the game is crashing related to recipe drops. An update has been deployed that fixes this issue. If this is affecting your game please update the game.

Hi Everyone!
