50 developer announcements, Jun 2026 to Sep 2026 · times in UTC
● Fixed the continuous stuttering that occurred while the player was moving. This fix is significantly effective; now only occasional minor stutters occur. However, this change causes all model packages to change, so this update is still…
Patch notesNote: This update adjusts certain data structures to support the upcoming merchant system, so the file size is very large (future content updates will not be this large). If you do not wish to update, you can right-click the game icon in…
Patch notes● Pressing R to pick up a death backpack now automatically equips the gear the character was wearing at death and restores items placed in the hotbar. Different death drop settings have been taken into account. ● When repairing equipment…
Patch notes● You can now right-click to "upgrade" armor, melee weapons, guns, and other items to higher quality. ● Fixed the bug where "Stone Skin" was ineffective. ● In first-person, holding the right mouse button now enters scope/iron sights mode. ●…
Patch notesNote: This update involves changes to many systems (various models reference these systems), so the update size is huge. If you do not wish to update, you can right-click the game icon in your Steam library, and switch to the…

Patch notes● Fixed a bug caused by the previous update patch – backpacks dropped upon death contained no items. Items lost due to this bug will reappear after this update. ● Fixed a bug where zombies could not be hit. This bug is relatively complex…
Patch notes● Fixed a bug where the pickaxe occasionally hit the rock above it instead of the target; now the pickaxe will 100% perfectly hit where you aim. ● Fixed a bug where items from the old workbench appeared in the new workbench. ● Fixed a bug…
Patch notes● Added to the error log: error code line numbers, auto‑hide of the upper‑left notification when the error window is closed, and duplicate errors will now only be shown once. ● Removed the character limit for custom storage box labels; you…
Patch notes● Added an automatic error reporting log system. If any error occurs in the game, a prompt will appear in the upper‑left corner of the screen. Press F8 to open the error log interface, where you can copy the log text and send it to us for…
Patch notes● Fixed a bug where occasionally neither the player could hit zombies nor zombies could hit the player (due to difficulty in reproducing, the fix was made solely through code analysis; actual player testing is still needed for…
Patch notes● Fixed a critical bug – there was an edge case in the system that was not considered, which could rarely cause the save data of buildings constructed by players on a certain plot to be deleted incorrectly, resulting in the base…
Patch notes● Fixed the bug where, after character death, if the respawn point was very far away, the dropped backpack would fail to load correctly.● Fixed the bug where players returning to base from another biome would find that underground caves…
Patch notes● Significantly improved the hit accuracy of attacks using stone axes, stone pickaxes, and iron pickaxes. Now the crosshair points exactly to the hit location, and attacks will no longer hit rocks, buildings, or other objects behind you. ●…
Patch notes● Fixed a bug where vehicles would appear several kilometers away after loading a save. (Vehicles that have already appeared far away can only be driven back; we are very sorry.) ● Fixed a bug where a vehicle was right in front of you but…
Patch notes● Rewrote the rain particle system; now using a custom particle collision detection system, which improves performance during rain. ● Fixed the bug where rain particles would appear deep underground. ● You can now turn off the "Screen…
Patch notes● In the main menu scene, clicking the "Workshop" button will open a brand new Mod browser, allowing you to install, delete, and update Mods with one click. No more tedious manual installation as before. ● Fixed a critical bug where the…

Patch notes● Fixed the bug where zombie corpses would disappear. ● Fixed the bug where the airdrop crate icon on the map would not be marked as looted. Note: The merchant system is now about 93% complete. It still needs some more time. Thank you all…
Patch notes● The reason for this update's large file size: We have extracted all shaders from asset bundles and pre-warmed them in batches before the game starts, which alleviates stuttering issues when players move. Since all asset bundles have been…

Patch notes● Fixed the bug where the hand animation was incorrect after drawing and shooting a bow. ● Fixed the bug where, when hovering the mouse over a custom marker on the map, the marker's text box would appear at the bottom-left corner of the…

Patch notes● Fixed a bug where the item stack count occasionally did not display. ● Fixed a bug where, before the vehicle successfully entered build mode, placing a structure on the vehicle would cause the vehicle to suddenly disappear. Note: The…
Patch notes● Fixed the bug where occasionally, after opening a storage container, all items would disappear. However, this fix is not compatible with old save files, so old saves will continue to use the old code. Any new save files created after this…
Patch notes● You can now directly use items from the belt slot (such as bandages, food, water, medicine), etc. ● Adjusted the time offset; sunrise is now at 7:00 and sunset at 19:00. ● Fixed the bug where felled trees would reappear on the next game…
Patch notes● Fixed the issue where the day count was not displayed on the map. ● Fixed the bug where, when disassembling items with both backpack and belt full, the obtained disassembled items would fall underground. Note: The merchant system is about…
Patch notes● Fixed the bug where the quality level of items crafted at the workbench was randomly initialized. ● If the materials required for crafting contain quality levels (e.g., firearm parts of different quality levels), then the crafted item's…
Patch notes● The horde interval parameter has been changed to use "days" as the unit, allowing you to set how many days pass between each horde attack (at night). Also, opening the map will now display a countdown timer until the next horde. ● When…
Patch notes● Fixed the bug where, after breaking a part of an abandoned building, exiting and re-entering the game would cause that abandoned building to disappear. However, old saves that already have corrupted data cannot be automatically recovered.…
Patch notes● Fixed the bug where terrain chunks failed to load when driving vehicles at high speed. Note: The merchant system is about 75% complete. Patches released during this period may introduce some bugs. If you encounter any issues, please…

Patch notes● Fixed a bug where, after changing hotkey bindings, the bound keys would revert to default when returning to the main menu. Note: The trader system is about 70% complete. Patches released during this time may cause some bugs. If you…
