Rabies Update is now out!

With this update Hamsters have a very low chance of getting rabies, although a high chance of spreading it. If a hamster has rabies it will spread to nearby Hamsters.

Hamsters with rabies are:

Worth 50% less value

Better fighters in the gladiator arena

They deal more damage to your base

Rabies hamsters have 7x better chance of their off-springs spawning with better traits

Rabies isn't passed to offspring unless in close proximity for long enough

Bug Fixes:

Fixed an bug when unhanging a Hamster it auto hangs again.

Fixed a bug when picking up a Hamster on a block it hangs it instantly.

Fixed a movement bug with the character controller not moving straight
