Update May 15, 2024

Hey All, just a quick small update with mostly bug fixes this week. I wanted to release this before working on a bigger update coming soon.

New Features:

Campfires and Stick Traps will now decay after 3 days of not being used. This is to prevent campfires and stick traps being placed around the whole map and not disappearing. In the future you will be able to destroy them but until then they will automatically be removed after 3 days of not being used. There will be a new label that says the last time it was used. You can find the label by going over to a stick trap or campfire
Recent Event: A Recent Event notice has been added when a barricade has been built. This will give you a peak at who build the barricade.
Stick Trap Success: The stick trap success rate has been updated and the success rate of catching any animal will be based on the location the stick trap has been setup in. Stick Traps will have a 10% success rate if setup in the Forest, 5% if setup in a Grass Field and 1% everywhere else.
KO Count: If you are knocked out you will be knocked out for 3 turns. This is down from 12 turns.
Cooking XP and Burn: A new perk and Experience has been added for cooking. You will gain 1 cooking XP every time you successfully cook something on the campfire. There is also a chance of burning food and you will not get any food when cooking. Each user will start with 40% success rate and each level will gain 5% success up to 90% success rate.

Bug Fixes:

Recent Event Time has been fixed. All time on the server is stored in UTC, if you were +/- the UTC time then the event time was wrong. This has been fixed.
Drop Scavenged Item: The drop button did not work after finding an item. This has been fixed.
Barricade Build: The confirmation to build a barricade was broken with the recent update, this has been fixed.
User Weapon: If you had nothing equipped your weapon image was broken on the Map page when attacking another user. This has been fixed.
Attack Emails: Attack Emails were not being sent. This has been fixed and you will get a notification email if you were attacked. (Depending on your setting)
Barricade Building would Trap users inside: If you barricaded a building with other users inside, it would trap them and they would not be able to leave. This has been fixed. All users will be kicked out when someone barricades a building they are in.

Great update.

In regards to the barricades, are there any plans to make either a skill, or the ability to have certain people bypass the barricade? I am playing with a friend of mine, and we have established a house, but either I'm locked out, or he is.

Yup, I will be adding a barricade management which will allow you to allow certain users. Don't have a release date on that yet but most likely in the war update on the roadmap

d4yz Hey chief, I know numbers are down, but are we going to get any updates? I'm sure people would come back if there was more to do...

I know I've been slacking with summer and vacation. I haven't forgot about the game just busy with other things. Expect an update soon with new items (electricity)
