• Fixed the issue where selling vehicle expansions while attached to vehicles would cause a server crash.
  
• Fixed the issue where repairing vehicle parts through vicinity icon would cause a client crash.
  
• Fixed the issues where bicycles could be logged incorrectly in the flying vehicle log.

Note: Selling inventory attachments will only be possible from service lift for now.

But before we start, unfortunately, we could not deliver the much-needed update without doing a partial wipe. So there will be a partial wipe for this update as mentioned last week.





Let's start with the one most of you want to hear about. We did some heavy tweaking around the horde behavior, specifically in High Threat Zones. This includes tweaking spawners, refresh rate, and a lot of bug fixing around edge cases. Not everything is solved but we did a big pass on it and we are positive in our testing. But as always you all can test it in a much better capacity than we can. So we are still looking into your feedback regarding it. For more details check the bug fixes.

We also adjusted Mid-threat zones a bit as well, with more to come on them in the future. So there will be some issues with them now as the HTZ was the priority but do not worry, they are in our sights as well.

Do note that we are testing and adjusting the hordes according to official settings. If you crank the puppets up things will most likely still break so use that at your own risk.



Now for something we have teased before as well. There is a wave of vehicles returning, and for most of them, the waves are what you will travel over.


A lot of you guessed it already. The rafts are back! And the SUP as well. Yes, they are finally adapted and ready for the new system and can be implemented back into the game. Welcome back.







Island hopping is again much more viable, including you island base building fellows.

Rafts are not the only news regarding vehicles.


Yes, the dirt bike has a new pass of modularity. Now the front fender, shield, and body can be replaced, removed, and maintained.



Wait a minute... Zoom in on that. Are those hell rider parts? Yes, indeed they are. With the modular system now every dirt bike can be fitted with hell rider drip.





We are not done yet, some new stuff coming to the vehicles as well.



Another addition to the modular system is the new inventory expansion kit system. There are 3 in total:

• Small - For bikes. motorbikes, rafts, and SUPs.
  
• Medium - For the barba boat (and future vehicles waiting for their return).
  
• Big - This one goes on all cars and the big raft as well.

Indeed now you can carry even more stuff on your long journeys.

• Small can contain any loot that fits inside.
  
• Medium can fit one chest inside.
  
• Big can fit 2 chests inside.

The dream of becoming a drifter is getting closer and closer. Important note is that once placed on the vehicle remember to lock them! The lock of the vehicle does not extend to the external storage.
The expansion kits can be purchased at traders only.



Some nice new items for you as an extra as well.



We have a new mask for you wild men to craft. Horse head mask, because 2012 memes never die.



And for comfort within your own home, with nice soft fuzzy bunny slippers. Just don't let your teammates mistake them for the real thing or you might lose your toes.

Vehicle_destruction log is a on/off server setting. By default it is off.
Vehicles --> misc --> log destroyed vehicles.
If it is on, it will show when vehicles have been destroyed, expired or disappeared (sold or other reasons).

What we can do is show you when vehicle is destroyed (unrepairable) and when it disappears by inactivity (expired).
It will still trigger disappearance if it disappeared after being destroyed, if it fell through the map, if it was sold to the trader.

2024.04.23-12.13.52: AConZGameMode:: KickPlayer : User id: '76561199637135087', Reason: Flying vehicle cheat detected.

To check what happened here, you should:

Go drone mode
Teleport to the location provided
Then copy paste the entire visualize command and you will see a blue line and the vehicle flying to simulate what happened there
You also have the user that got kicked and the ID of the vehicle so you can find the vehicle on the map


It is by default on, which means you will have loot in armory only on activation. (natural activation or by keycard)
If you want it to be like it was before, change it to off.
#ReloadLootCustomizationsAndResetSpawners true works either way if you want to reset loot there.

And a bit of more info. Well, first of all, I want to thank all of you for your support, and positive feedback was received on the community address. It is def a step in the right direction. And those of you who still have your doubts and reservations, understandable. We will let our actions ease your concerns once the update is out. Speaking of the update many of you are a bit disappointed we did not give any timelines.
We addressed this before and so it is now. We avoid giving timelines, roadmaps, and dates because we do not want to have a chance of broken words. Our development method is agile. That means dates change, issues arise, and need to be dealt with. So you would prepare for an update on a date which might not come. Not out of some malicious intentions but due to issues that arose in development. We also want to include in our updates as much as possible for you guys. And sometimes it means prolonging the update for a week or 2, and sometimes even longer. Hence we do not give out dates.

However, the promise given last week will be kept here, more communication, So here is a little update on the... well update. Some of the fixes implemented are a bit complex, especially regarding vehicles and the upgraded modularity. For now, it is looking like a partial wipe might be needed for successful implementation. We are working our best to avoid it, but I am still giving you guys a heads-up. More info once we have it.

Some of you also asked for more info about the multiplatform release. We have not given it due to not having anything new to give you. At the point of writing this, multiplatform is still in development and that is pretty much it. For now.

That is all the extra info I have for you at this moment, but we will talk to you all soon. Oh, don't think this post will go without me wishing you all a happy Monday!

Now that we got the dev update out of the way, let us get down to the community address. What is this? you may ask. Well, it is a letter to you, all of you about the state of the game right now, and what we are doing about it.

We understand and get it. You feel like you are not being heard in some cases and it is true that the communication about some things from our side was a bit lacking. We want to rectify this and this is the first step. We have however always listened, read, and collected the feedback from all of you guys and that has never and will never stop, for after all what is SCUM without its SCUMmunity. Also, you all have grown, 10 times as much for us to communicate with you all effectively as we have before. So you can expect more ways, and more often to hear from us on the state of the game, development, and much more soonish. But more on that later. Let's get to what you all are eager to hear.

First state of the game are the hordes. Yes, we know they are not working as intended right now and we spent our time investigating and looking into it. The system is complex and relatively new, and issues were expected but not to this extent. Our primary focus right now is to resolve the issues inside bunkers and other High Threat Zones. We agree that spawning is ridiculous and no one wants puppets to spawn on them. I am happy to say that we looked into it and this will be resolved in the next update. The encounter manager is here to stay, not the issues with it. Reasons why are vast and vary as every single player is. From an optimizations standpoint, future features and NPCs will all fit in the end. So we will keep working on it and improving it until it is right and satisfactory for everyone. We are also working on better ways to deal with encounters, the first step being improving the roles of silencers/suppressors making firearms viable as well. More of that in the update as well.

Secondly the vehicles. We know it's been a long time since you've seen a good chunk of them still. Those of you catching up on these can already guess but here I can confirm it. We will begin implementing all the missing vehicles in waves, starting with the ones missing from your hearts the most. Hint: They arrrrre coming back.

With the item number 3 comes anti-cheat. You already know we have upgraded our ticket system, the reasons already mentioned. But there was another reason as well. Our wonderful QA (which was also CM/Anti cheat/Support/Window washer team) was overloaded with everything. With the load lifted from them, they have now, and will continue to do so, be more focused on cheats and anti-cheat methods with collaboration from the rest of the team. We already have active admins, devs online, and more combating cheating, but we are working hard on more auto reporting and acting anti-cheat methods. Unfortunately, that is all I can say about it right now, since the more information I give away the more info those pesky cheat makers will have on what to do. Naughty naughty guys, go away.

All of this and a bunch more bug fixes will be in the next update. We hear you and we are here. Hope you all like the new format with more to come so stay tuned!

We are excited to announce that our support system has been upgraded! With the new page you will find all the information needed when you find yourself in a bit of trouble. From FAQ, troubleshooting common issues and expanded direct support.

For those of you with active tickets on the old system you will need to create a new ticket on the new page, as the old one will no longer provide responses.

A long requested feature is finally here. It is now possible to set up raid protection your server. And with multiple options as well!

Settings located under [Features]

scum.RaidProtectionType=0
3 options:

• 0 None (No raid protection will be active)
  
• 1 Offline (Raid protection will be active after all members of the squad are offline)
  
• 2 Flag Specific (Raid protection will be active when squad decides to activate it on the flag)

Do note only one option can be active at the same time.

scum.RaidProtectionFlagSpecificChangeSettingCooldown=120 : 00 : 00

• Defines the cooldown period between the active raid prtection in (HH : MM : SS) between setting new raid protection time.

scum.RaidProtectionFlagSpecificChangeSettingPrice=10g
Defines the amount of money needed to skip the cooldown timer for setting new raid protection time.

• Min value: 0 cash or 1 gold
  
• Max value: 100000 cash or 10 gold
  
• Disabled: -

scum.RaidProtectionFlagSpecificMaxProtectionTime=08 : 00 : 00
Defines how long in (HH : MM : SS) will the base be protected for.

• Min value: 00 : 00 : 00
  
• Max value: 80 : 00 : 00

• Infinite: -

These settings are also available on ingame menu and will show you for which option which setting is active as well.






We also have another setting up and running. We've been aware of the misuse of alt accounts and multiple squads to circumvent some of the balancing features. To combat this we have implemented squad probation setting. Leaving a squad will now not go without penalties.

When leaving and then rejoining squad you will be placed under probation. While in probation you will not be able to:

• Create a new squad.
  
• Access squad based assets such as locked chests.
  
• Your membership will not count towards squad perks such as increased BB element count.

If a squad members are all in probation and leader leaves, the squad will be disbanded.

Settings located under [Features]

scum.SquadMemberCountLimitForPunishment=2

• Sets the maximum number of squad mates for which prisoners leaving the squad will not receive any penalties.

scum.RTSquadProbationDuration=1.000000

• Sets the number of real time days for which squad probation will last.

scum.SquadMoneyPenaltyPerPrevSquadMember=0

• Sets the money penalty prisoner will have to pay per squad member in his previous squad in order to create or join a new squad.

scum.SquadFamePointsPenaltyPerPrevSquadMember=10

• Sets the fame points penalty prisoner will have to lose per squad member in his previous squad in order to create or join a new squad.

Settings also available on ingame settings menu.



For all settings that influence currency, you can choose whether the price will be in cash or gold. IF you set the value to be 10 it will be 10 cash, but by setting it 10g the price will be in gold.



We added changes to the binoculars as well. Let us be honest here, the binocs were an item you took if you wanted to sell it maybe, since most scopes had better functionalities for scouting anyway. So we added new zoom levels and variable zoom as well. Making it more viable for those scouting runs, especially when you want to travel light.





Some new things for your favorite 4 wheel vehicle. The Rager can now be upgraded with not one, but 2 sets of armor!



That is right you have an option between light or heavy!











Your choice: do you wish to have light protection but with better speed and handling, or do you want to go in heavy as a brick but also with handling like a brick. (it is not that bad, bud I still wanted to make that joke)
