Pathless Woods OPENTEST Beta Update: v0.6.0.1–v0.6.1.3

v0.6.0.1

• Fixed player death synchronization and revive states on dedicated servers, plus client ponds repeatedly lowering or disappearing.

• World Gate travel between worlds is no longer restricted by fog. Indoor-building checks and distant LOD colliders were also improved.

• Adjusted the Chicken King's wind attacks, animations, and tornado behavior. Yaer patrols no longer spawn in the starting area during the first 20 days.

• Fixed startup-language issues and notices or minimaps failing to refresh after changing languages.

• Updated Buff icons and character-screen display, and fixed tree gathering, repeated NPC death resolution, and start-menu interaction after character selection.

v0.6.0.2

• Fixed the Bronze Toad failing to return after a Moonwell rebuild. Bubble Flying Fish and Stonefire Deer combat behavior has also been corrected.

• Fixed drying-rack pickup issues, cooking ingredient transfers, and adjusted selected rabbit-hide and wolf-hide recipes.

• Fixed Nitrate Ice Vessel synchronization and older-save compatibility, with additional recipe, Buff, and quest localization fixes.

• Fixed Black Forest grouping, Earth God Temple spawn points, lingering Buff sync while dead, and eating during the death state.

• Fixed black terrain after multi-world building refreshes, revival opening the map, dedicated-server room IDs, and save-character lists.

v0.6.0.3

• Fixed dead ingredient slots in cooking facilities and recipe recovery. Wild rush and fireweed root-drop rates were increased.

• Fixed client scale restoration after Earth God teleportation, large crafted-item carrying visuals, and LOD creation order.

• Ghost Flames now spawn only in foggy areas at night. Missing secret-realm World Gate entrances are restored for older saves.

• Optimized section loading, grass budgets, and river sampling to reduce stutters while entering areas or building.

• Fixed backpack ownership, stale tree-chopping animations, and completed new boss-drop and drying-rack presentation.

• Fixed widespread missing icons caused by misaligned Addressables entries.

v0.6.1.1

• Improved compatibility for multi-world saves and terrain data, reducing terrain issues and misplaced objects when loading older saves.

• Fixed water, pond, waterfall, and client water-sync issues. Grass and volumetric fog should flicker less while moving.

• Fixed cross-world teleporting, client movement sync, remote creature positions, and the firing feel of bows and slingshots.

• Improved creature AI: toads now fight back properly, and creatures are less likely to get stuck while chasing, returning home, or dealing with obstacles.

• Players receive a brief protection period after entering a world, preventing accidental deaths before terrain finishes loading.

• Obtaining the Chicken King Skull now starts a guide for opening the next world. The skull can be offered at any World Gate.

• Fixed terrain-following issues affecting Moonwell beams, World Gates, Demon-Sealing Stones, and similar objects.

• Fixed issues with hoeing seed-stage crops and collecting their drops.

• Fixed missing Buff previews in cooking pots and keyboard focus jumping away from text fields.

• NPCs now replan sooner after waking up or changing camp jobs.

• Adjusted selected ecosystem spawns, Nitrate Ice Vessel materials, and insect-catching timing.

v0.6.1.2

• Reworked water-edge, slope-channel, waterfall, and terrain-digging water behavior to reduce white shoreline patches, trapped water, and incorrect water surfaces.

• Respawn points are now stored separately for each world. After dying, players respawn in their current world.

• Fixed an issue where players could remain flagged as in combat after death and revival, preventing normal saves.

• Save imports now use the world name stored inside the save. Duplicate names are numbered automatically, and ZIP filenames no longer matter.

• Improved section loading, terrain refreshes, and pathfinding cache behavior to reduce stutters while crossing areas, entering new regions, or updating terrain.

• Fixed old terrain snapshots overwriting newer terrain heights after moving back and forth between areas.

• Fixed Moonwell fog clearing for dedicated servers and clients, and prevented one-time tutorials from replaying after a client reloads a save.

• Yaer invasions now include six tiers of guaranteed rewards and extra combat supplies.

• Fixed invading Yaer enemies losing their target and returning home after getting stuck. Also fixed creatures getting stuck on pathfinding seams near map edges.

• Recruited NPCs no longer damage player-built structures or crops. Scarecrows can still be attacked.

• Improved map controls and quest guidance, including wider map browsing bounds and proper new-world guidance refreshes for clients.

• Optimized colliders for selected props such as tin ore, and added missing unit icons for Liezhu buildings.

v0.6.1.3

• Fixed remaining water visuals around slopes and shores, including shallow-water white patches and gaps along one-sided banks.

• Fixed white waterfall curtains at low camera angles and flickering foam where water surfaces meet.

• Map guidance lines now flow from the player toward the objective, making their direction easier to read.
