PixARK Patch 1.244 Halloween Update

Dear Explorers！ We are bringing you our Halloween Patch! Happy Halloween!

Alongside the Halloween content update, the highly anticipated Keep Inventory on Death feature is officially rolling out today.

---

New Feature: Keep Inventory on Death

When creating a single-player or LAN multiplayer game, you can now freely toggle Keep Inventory on Death on or off via Game Settings > Misc Settings. For players who prefer a more relaxed exploration experience and want to avoid losses from accidental deaths, you can adjust this setting to match your playstyle. This feature is currently available in single-player and LAN multiplayer modes.

1. How to Enable in Single-Player Mode In single-player mode, simply check the "Keep Inventory on Death" option on the Misc Settings page to activate it.

2. How to Enable in LAN Mode Check the "Keep Inventory on Death" option when creating a LAN game. Once enabled, all items in your inventory will be preserved after you die and respawn normally.

Bug Fixes

PixArk / Skypiea / Terracrypt

• Further resolved an occasional client crash that could occur on the loading screen when entering the game.

• Fixed an issue where creature levels would not display after players released tamed creatures.

• Fixed a UI layering issue where the server selection screen was obscured by other interfaces during cross-server character transfer.

• Fixed an issue where growth acceleration from lighting structures would stop working for plants after players re-logged into the game.

Game Optimizations

PixArk / Skypiea

• Creature Block Storage Chest structures will now automatically lock immediately after being placed.

• The background artwork will dynamically update to match your selected map when choosing a save file during LAN game creation.

Terracrypt

• Added a new plant: Myco-shroom. Its seeds can be obtained by harvesting Yellow Mushrooms in the Rotting Fungus Tundra. (Effect: Improved taming effectiveness for herbivorous creatures)

• Greatly expanded the valid trigger range for boss-defeat achievements, to prevent cases where the boss is defeated and the quest completes but the achievement fails to unlock.

• Changed the default E-key interaction for Bio-Lab doors from Pick Up to manual Open/Close, to prevent accidentally picking up doors.

• Optimized plant cultivation: plants grown on the surface no longer require lighting structures such as lamps to grow.
