We have just released our v2.29 (136986) Hotfix for THE LONG DARK (including Survival Edition) and TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY on Steam and Epic Games Store. Please note that WINTERMUTE’s version number has not changed. This Hotfix addresses multiple issues introduced in the v.2.28 update for TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY.
The following are mostly fixes in response to issues opting in or out of the Cougar or Scurvy on current saves, so please read carefully.
GAMEPLAY, UI, CONTROLS
* Fixed an issue where the time spent in a Region in a pre-existing save would count towards Cougar Threat, and prematurely trigger Cougar Encroaching.
* Fixed an issue where players were not prompted to opt in/out of Cougar and Scurvy settings when loading a pre-existing save via the Resume button
* As part of this fix, the first time any save created prior to v2.29 is loaded, the prompt will appear, regardless of whether the player had received it on that save previously.
* Fixed an issue where players were not prompted to opt in/out of Cougar and Scurvy settings when loading a pre-existing Custom Toolbox save.
* As part of this fix, upon loading any Custom Toolbox save, all players will be prompted to opt in/out of Cougar and Scurvy settings.
* Players who opt in to Cougar settings where none existed previously, will have Low Cougar Spawn Chance settings applied.
* Players who opt in to Scurvy settings will have their Vitamin-C Drain Rate determined by the Base Resource Availability setting of that save. (If Scurvy was set to “Off” during initial Custom Toolbox creation, opting in will not change that setting.)
