Lots of bug fixes, some QoL additions. A lot of these issues have been around unsolved for too long and they are being fixed as part of a pass to solve long outstanding issues affecting the game.

• Makes it so that brace fire of SABR shoots from camera, not muzzle, because brace fire is emulating an ADS state. This should help with the brace fire not shooting at the intended tip of the irons.
  
• Clacker max RPM down from 1800 to 600, to maintain a fast speed while also reducing the utility of a macro. (Fastest possible 3x clack is now 0.2s instead of 0.066s)
  
• Changed the decal system so that player's guns will no longer render decals. Player bodies can still render decals but they should no longer show up on guns as you pass near or through decals which would normally make it hard to aim.

• Fixed issue where clacker RPM would be affected by tickrate.
  
• Incremental performance optimization: 30% cleanup of memory allocations per tick to reduce memory overhead and cost of garbage collection
  
• Fix to remove legacy networking spawning code from unity systems, occasionally this old system would be activated by unity and cause severe performance dips on the server, affecting it's tickrate.
  
• Added fix for players spawning in the floor and dying while loading.
  
• Fixed one cause of an issue where players would respawn in the next round with the guns that they had in the previous round when they died
  
• If files are detected as invalid and you are blocked from connecting to a server, after the game shuts down, steam will attempt to silently verify files in the background; instead of just a popup recommending to verify files.
  
• More character content tweaks and fixes to various character customization items

Contract Fixes:
- Some of the contracts/missions were misconfigured and is now fixed, they weren't giving you gold and the travelling time was instantaneous.

Battle improvements:
- Players/Enemies/Bosses now start the fight closer to each other, previously they were starting on the map bounds.

• Improved manual detection
  
• Some minor level design changes on BC Bikepark
  
• Improved the whip animation - more steeze
  
• Removed the developer options on the main menu I left in by accident! haha

Hello Detectives!

The development of Outbreak Island continues and today we want to share new material about the game again.


Outbreak Island is an open-world game, but there is not only land, but also water. Not so long ago we updated the physics and the visuals of the ocean that surrounds the island. Now the water surface looks realistic and doesn't cause FPS slumps. Check it out!





In addition to the land-based gameplay, there will be underwater gameplay in Outbreak Island. Unfortunately, you won't be able to sail far - strange storms don't allow you to just swim away. But you can explore local reefs and collect necessary resources from the wrecked ships nearby. But don't forget about oxygen - unfortunately, our detective is just an ordinary man, not a professional swimmer.




That's all for today. Subscribe to our SteamHub, as well as social media, so you don't miss the development diaries and other news about Outbreak Island!
