Hey there Don't Starvers! It's been awhile since our last update, we're hard at work on the expansion and on the PS4 edition. But we're definitely still on the lookout for improvements and fixes to the base game, so here's some updates to recent features (Maxwell, Beefalo, Twiggy Trees), bug fixes as always, and an overhaul to the voting system to make it easier to manage servers without an admin present. (Details in the patch notes.)

As always, we appreciate your feedback, and keep on not starving!

• New DST Steam Trading Cards! Collect 'em all! (Sorry, box tops are not accepted.)
  
• You know those sticks that start on the ground when your world has Twiggy trees? Now we know where they come from.
  
• New and improved vote system! From the Player Status Screen (tab key, right joystick), you'll now see a list of server admin actions. If the server allows voting (on by default for dedicated servers, configuration options here), then non-admin users will also see the list of admin actions in order to start a vote. Vote-kick on players is available by default on dedicated servers.
  
• New "Salt Lick" item in the Tools crafting menu helps keep your beefalo satisfied in your absence.
  
• Maxwell’s Shadow minions will no longer die instantly from falling debris during Earthquakes.
  
• Maxwell is refunded one nightmare fuel if he banishes a Shadow Minion under his control.
  
• Codex Umbra no longer decays when left on the ground.
  
• Books can now be used as fuel for Fire.
  
• Reduced the intensity of insanity audio/visual effects while playing as Maxwell.
  
• Added more action fail strings variety.
  
• Particles now properly fade out after their entity is destroyed.

• Fixed animation bugs when performing emotes while mounted.
  
• Fixed bug where Instrument or Book actions may sometimes fail when your inventory is full.
  
• Fixed bug where Wickerbottom’s penalty for eating spoiled food was not being applied properly.
  
• Fixed bug where a player’s minimap sometimes does not save correctly when entering and exiting Caves.
  
• Added proper controller bindings for Gift Popup screen.
  
• Fixed bug where Crock Pot action may fail on clients when a Hammer is equipped.

• Fixed crash when viewing the scoreboard on a dedicated server.

Game Update 177500 - 05/12/2016


Hey folks! What would you do with a fist full of butterfly wings? Well, according to Graham's performance on today's stream, he'd probably eat them for his health. But that might not be the best idea anymore!

And as usual, we've also fixed a bunch of remaining bugs and issues. Enjoy!

• Beefalo have a sweet new replacement for that walking-cane-while-riding bug.
  
• Emergency mode Flingomatic will now detect burnt Saplings and Grass even if they have already been picked.

• Fixed layering and orientation bugs with effects and particles rendering.
  
• Beefalo expressions change as soon as they start getting a tendency now (but they still don't get bonuses 'til you domesticate them, so back to work!)
  
• Odd little outcroppings of land no longer occur on new worlds.
  
• Beefalo wake up correctly if you try riding them.
  
• Beefalo no longer get movespeed and attack bonuses from their rider.
