Dear Martians!
Thank you for participating in the testing of version 0.137.1 on the public_testing branch. Thanks to your vigilance, we were able to make significant improvements to this build. Today, we are excited to release version 0.137.1d, which comes with several enhancements.
One of the issues you pointed out was the slow charging of vehicles, and we are pleased to inform you that we have addressed this problem, making the charging process much faster. Additionally, we have resolved the issue with loot tables, which was causing difficulties in long campaigns and resulting in a lack of seed magazines in abandoned bases.
We appreciate your help a lot! This is the way we want to work - in cooperation with our community, responding to your feedback.
We have deployed a patch v0.137.1d on public_testing branch on Steam! It replaces previous version (0.137.1). Feel free to try it out.
We will switch it to default branch if no major problems occur,
Meanwhile we are working on the next one, which includes, among others, new graphic options and some performance upgrades.
