🛠️ Patch Notes – Hotfix & Quality Update

Hey everyone,

We’ve just released another patch focused on gameplay polish, bug fixes, and quality-of-life improvements:

• 🖱️ Fixed: NVG spam activation glitch Spamming right-click no longer keeps the JVN system active indefinitely.

• 🌱 Fixed: Save seed now handled correctly The world seed is now forced directly from the save file data, not from metadata — preventing unwanted resets.

• 🚪 Fixed: Door closing interaction issue Car doors now close correctly — you no longer need to aim perfectly at the handle to interact with them.

• 💧 Improved: Faster fluid refilling Refueling and fluid refills now complete faster for a smoother gameplay loop.

• 🌍 Improved: Terrain generation near POIs Fixed terrain holes that often formed near POIs, which could trap vehicles or players. These areas are now filled properly.

• 💥 Fixed: Stuck between death and revival after explosion Players who died from an explosion would sometimes be stuck in a limbo state — this is now resolved. You’ll now correctly wait for revival or respawn.

• 📣 Fixed: Megaphone audio feedback loop Using the megaphone no longer causes your voice to echo endlessly in your own output. The loop has been silenced.

• 💾 Fixed: Autosave not triggering over time Autosaves were no longer occurring after extended play sessions — they now work reliably again.

• 🚗 Fixed: Vehicle spawn stability Vehicles now have their position forcibly stabilized 5 seconds after spawning to avoid erratic behavior.

• 🛞 Fixed: Tire blowout at ~50km regardless of settings A bug caused tires to burst around 50 km even if durability parameters were modified — this has been fixed.

• 🔧 Fix & Note: Attachable activable items not working after save reload Attachables (like police light, laser, etc.) may stop working after reloading a save due to bad legacy data. To fix this, you'll need to remove and reattach them once in your existing save — they’ll work properly afterward even after saving.

Thanks again for all the feedback and bug reports! Keep them coming — your input helps shape the road ahead. 🚗💨
