We addressed several bugs this week, including a few that we found during one of our play sessions. We fixed issues with the spawning of player-owned items and the removal of spawn beds. Players can now choose their character’s gender and we fixed a “female-only” bug on staging. Rivers will no longer put players in an erroneous swimming state. We finished persistence for totem energy and put a fix in for permission issues when placing a totem.
The team has been working on our diorama system for quite some time now. Our goal is to make the roads, paths, and trails in the game feel as real as possible by including cars, boxes, and the other trappings of a recently collapsed society. This week we added improvements to road foliage, material grunge, and some road decals. We let the grass grow into the streets to give them the right feel and added a few abandoned bus stops along the way. As you can see from the shots below, our work is paying off.
