Engine Upgrade

We've updated Unity to align with our other projects and leverage recent editor improvements. While most changes will be invisible in the final product, some saves may see minor performance gains.

The update spent extra time in Beta since upgrading engine versions often introduces risks. For example, this update caused significant UI issues, which should now be resolved. However, please report any lingering problems. As noted in a recent post, our beta userbase has decreased due to more frequent updates, which has also reduced issue reporting.

Gas Mask

The new Gas Mask accommodates two filters, filtering specific gases while blending with the ambient atmosphere. This feature is particularly useful for managing contamination in bases or isolating sections with abnormal atmospheres.

Bespoke Storage Options

We've introduced bespoke storage options: single-slot shelves designed for specific items. The initial implementations are for the Gas Mask and Fire Extinguisher, both emergency items that benefit from being easily accessible.
