ㅤWelcome, Survivor!
We're releasing an update with new features, requested changes, and fixes for some of the remaining issues reported since version 1.0.0c2. Other platforms will follow ASAP. The changes are as follows:
Additions:
- A "pity system" was introduced to counter the cases of bad luck when it comes to rolling items required by the current mission (every roll without the item increases the chance of it appearing).
- Added "Zombie Volume" setting in the Options -> Audio.
- Added an automatic "Liberate" option to the "Auto-Selection" menu.
- "Run History" view now displays how much damage of each type has been dealt.
- [PC] Added a "Game Speed 100%" bind to the "Remap Controls" settings menu.
- [PC] The in-game cursor is back (finally!).
Changes:
- Increased the Luck's impact on Military Training rarity.
- Increased the rate at which the main story missions are being offered in the Camp.
- Ranger's first mission "Seeding" changed to require any difficulty instead of II+.

Quality of life:

- Added a 0.2s input lock after activating the "Banish" function to help with double-input issues.
