Patch 11 - Spear cannibals, electricity improvements, new cutscene and more
Author: Dishmink,

Hey everyone,
For this patch we have revised the electricity system, adding a new battery pickup that is needed to keep things running at night and added a limit to the amount of items that can be powered from a single source before your lights will start dimming and eventually overload. Batteries can be found near the broken down golf carts in world and in some bunkers.
We also added a new cutscene in food bunker, gave cannibals the ability to throw spears at the player and build effigies around the players position. We extended Cave A to add a new section which contains a new findable object and added the option to make concave corner ramps to the building system.
As always, please continue to post your bug reports and feedback in the Discussions area of the Community Hub.

[list]
[*]Babies can now be exploded into gibs
[*]There are now some cannibal nomad families lead by Frank the fire cannibal starting after 8-12 days

[*]Corner beams now contribute to beams structural resistance, making it less likely to break easily if only corner ramps are there
[*]Beams can now be placed leaning on another leaning beam, allows stacking one level of leaning beam
[*]Corner ramps no longer use a full plank for each placement, placing full planks will split it to a smaller size when appropriate and drop a pickup matching the rest of the quarter log planks
[*]Placing free wires on a solar panel now forces the position of the wire to the connector position on the model
[*]Free wires connected to beams & pillars now use a wire model instead of a zip-tie for the supporting ring visual
[*]Burning living cannibals will now update the burn amount on their material
[*]Made volumetric fog more visible in bunkers
