Hey Everyone, This patch gives Kelvin 3 new commands; repair structures, sharpen defensive walls and maintain base. If you ask him to maintain your base he will fill all holders to capacity, complete any in progress structures, repair damage and sharpen placed defensive walls. There’s also a new findable outfit and new findable blueprint added to the world. We added a new female cannibal type ‘Elise’ who has weapons strapped to her hands, and we added a bunch more detailing to the various camps and cannibal villages across the map as well as adding more findable points of interest. There are now buildable weapon racks and a firewood holder, and we added the ability to build small structures such as birdhouses or torches directly onto trees. We also added a bunch of memory optimizations which should help with overall stability, a new visual style ‘Found Footage’ that can be selected from the graphics menu, added FSR 2.0 support and fixed and improved a bunch of other issues, all listed below. As always, please continue to post your bug reports and feedback in the Discussions area of the Community Hub.
