Update v1.96.8:
No changelog was posted.
Update v1.96.7:
This build has fixed the issues seen from 1.96-6, and added one more convenience feature: you can also insert ammo into a gun while it's in the backpack.
Update v1.96.6:
Fixed a bug with the 150 ohm and 200 ohm resistors, which disappear immediately when you drop them on the ground.
Fixed a bug with batteries extracted from devices overlapping with other items in the backpack
Haruko will start providing guide service after you complete any quests for her. Previously, you have to first talk to Alexei about her before she offers guides.
Fixed a font issue with French where certain accented letters don't show up
Update v1.96.5:
Fixed a game-breaking bug that was reported to me yesterday - after you start the defense quest in Lake Cheko and waiting for the enemies to come, if you travel by boat to the lake cottage and stay there until the enemies' arrival and then travel back, the enemies will never arrive and you can't complete the quest. The fix will delay the enemies until you get back to the swamp.
Update v1.96.4:
Fixed a bug where if the UI size is set to too high (such as 14), the submit button in the character creation page will be outside the screen, preventing user from starting the game.
There is now a command to disable the winter event and remove the Christmas decors:
set coal_active 0
Then save and load.
Corrected some French translation
There used to be some discrepancy between the scope crosshair and the actual direction the gun is aiming at. They will be synced better in this build.
Increased the range and handling for SKS Sniper and SKS Carbine.
Update v1.96.3:
There are reports of game stuck in demo mode. I'm not sure why it behaves like that, so in this update I just removed all the code for demo mode.
After killing a NPC through strangling, the player will automatically go crouch.
Improved knockback animation
Update v1.96.2:
Fixed a typo in the Mosin Nagant data that prevented it from loading AP ammo
Fixed some navmesh issue in the Soviet Border area
When submitting a key as part of a quest, added the ability to detect the key inside keychain
Fixed a logic issue with gun damage processing that causes player to flinch/stumble even when the armor blocks the bullet completely
Reduced the chance of player stumbling in Nightmare mode
Fixed a typo in the tutorial that says to press B button to unload ammo. It should be X button.
Update v1.96.1:
When you open a container (keychain, medkit box, ingredient jar), all the items in the backpack or open chest that cannot be put inside the container will be grayed out, so that you can quickly locate items that can go inside.
When clicking the "Rearrange" button for either backpack or chest, the algorithm will now prioritize leaving a "boxy" space after rearranging, making it easier for you to put more item in without having to move some items around. Previously, when your backpack is almost full, clicking "Rearrange" usually gives you a long and thin strip of space on the right which is quite useless.
Vodka will now treat both T syndrome and radiation over time, with the effect diminishing as the sickness gets more severe.
Slightly increased the health restore amount per calorie when you sleep after eating food.
Pressing the "`|~" key next to the 1|! key will permanently hide HUD until either you press it again, or when you load a game.
Sidor's locker will no longer lock itself after closing it (I finally gave in, lol)
Made some improvement to the quest where Filip asks you to sift through a chest in the next room. You now actually must try to "be discrete", as Filip suggests.
Update v1.96:
I have received reports that while using mouse and keyboard control scheme, the cursor might move uncontrollably. It seems to be caused by certain software that sends controller button and axis signal using channels beyond the supported 4 in the game, thus interfering with the game's cursor.
In an attempt to resolve this issue, I have disabled cursor movement by joystick axis input (can be from any peripheral device) when the control scheme is not set to "Controller". The cursor movement by joystick is still enabled at all times for Steam Deck which is unlikely to run any software mentioned above.
Update v1.95.9:
Improvement on summersault/roll: if you are crouching before rolling, then you stay crouched afterwards. If you are standing before rolling, then you remain standing afterwards.
Improvement on sliding: after sprint->slide, as long as you keep holding down sprint key and W, you can keep sliding as many times as possible. Like how it works in Cyberpunk 2077.
When using Hybrid control scheme, you can free-aim on the body of enemies except when you use a buckshot shotgun, which will snap the aim on upper torso because the large crosshair makes it hard to pinpoint the aim. Shotgun with slug will also allow you to free aim on enemy body.
Update v1.95.6:
You can now hover your cursor over the to-do task list next to the journal, and it'll pop up the relevant journal entry to give you more context. No more flipping through pages :D
When you load the game, travel, or wake up from sleeping, if there are multiple new notifications coming in, the game will automatically show you the Console Log so that you don't miss crucial information.
When the Coal-smas quest is active, airdrops will now be much more frequent (every 4-6 days), but types of items in it will be limited to ammo, grenades, and meds.
Backpedaling is now faster when holding Melee weapon to make the movements feel smoother.
Fixed a bug where Chirkoff will kill an important character near the end of the game if they happen to meet.
Increased damage values for SKS Sniper and Carbine (final unlock from assassination quests in Shadowmaster DLC)
Update v1.95.5:
Fixed a bug with Boris's serum crafting
Fixed a null pointer error when picking up an item while the backpack is full
Update v1.95.4:
Fixed (again) the exploit with selling recipes - sorry about the trouble!
Rebalanced the pistol stats and improved their accuracy overall. Reduced damage for Makarovs to balance out the highly improved accuracy.
For Auto Aim and Controller control schemes, set the default aim point a little higher to avoid shooting at barriers. (Reminder: while targeting enemies, you can use mouse wheel to adjust the aim height)
Removed a un-harvestable tree near Zernaskaya church
Highly increased the chance of harvest high quality products from your planted crops, especially when you use fertilizer, high quality seeds, and have the skill perk
Update v1.95.3:
Fixed a bug in Dead Zone mode where some ghouls drop items that don't match the species
Fixed a bug with the Display Case (and the Christmas Tree) in player's house that can cause items to disappear upon save/load
Fixed a bug with switching between the new Coal-smas weapons when they are both equipped as sidearm
Some fuel tanks in the game will auto-regen gasoline after some days.
Traders will sell a little bit more alcohol and gasoline
Fixed a bug with strangling where during the animation, player remains stealthy even though he's standing. This caused a jarring experience where during strangling, other NPCs don't notice it happening, and as soon as the victim dies, they suddenly see the dead body and come to investigate. This bug was caused by player not set to exit crouching mode when starting to strangle. With the fix, the strangling process will become less stealthy and can be seen by other NPCs more easily, so you will need to perform the act somewhere farther away from other NPCs.
Update v1.95.2:
Fixed a bug where Shift+Click to move item sometimes doesn't update the carry weight
Grigori Matsevich from Lake Cheko will now convert 7.62x54mmr ammo to AP ammo along with other calibers
You will no longer be able to sell any items that are worth 0 rubles. These items are usually quest items which you shouldn't sell.
When starting a new game, the backup save files under C:\Users\\AppData\LocalLow\RotoristWorkshop\Tunguska\backup\ will no longer be cleared. Instead, whenever you sleep to save the game, it'll perform a file rotation and delete the oldest one when there are more than 50 backup files.
Increased the number of coal-smas presents in each airdrop to 3-4, since the airdrop events aren't very frequent in early game, this way early game players can complete the quest faster.
