Greetings Pioneers!

We’ve got another update to the experimental branch queued up for you. Some minor quality of life changes, the biggest being an updated map to bridge the gap for the fully updated info systems. Also credit to Old-gamer for some creative use of one of the existing camps in this weeks title image!

Additions

• Added weakpoints on Splintermites, Huntermites and Stalkers that deal more damage when targeted

Changes

• Reworked the small outpost at the base of the Dam. It’s now a proper structure, fully destructible and loot-able.
• Updated the World Map with the current level. Please note this a temporary solution until the Map functionality is reworked.
