Folklore Hunter Update 0.2b - Camera Rework

Hey guys!

This update addresses some issues with the cameras and should make them much more useful. I have reworked the system from the ground up and you can now control & zoom the cameras with the mouse. They also have inbuilt motion detectors which will send you a notification when motion is detected. I have also reworked the minimap to allow for other markers to be shown so you can now see your friends in multiplayer, and also see placed cameras on the map.

Other than that, there are a lot of other gameplay fixes and tweaks including a temp fix for people having the DX crash issue. Another update will follow shortly so stay tuned!


Patch Notes:
  • Removed video settings that were causing the DX crash for some people.
  • Overhauled camera system
  • New camera UI with better UX
  • Cameras now have motion detectors and will give a notification if motion is detected.
  • Cameras can now be rotated and zoomed.
  • Decreased vision obfuscation on the camera view.
  • Cameras now have more human-readable names and are synced properly in multiplayer.
  • Cameras are now marked on the map.
  • Added map markers for all players in multiplayer games.
  • Fixed navigation issues when the map is altered. Navigation will now update at runtime if substantial environment changes are made.
  • Rewrote crate & deer spawning to ensure they are always in reachable locations.
  • Added player nametags in multiplayer. (WIP)
  • Added secondary keybind for flashlight ('F')
  • Raised battery life from 7.5 to 12.5 minutes.
  • Fixed placed items will now drop to the ground if not properly supported.
  • Fixed totems not rotating for clients.
  • Fixed wendigo continuing to attack a player after they are already dead.
