This update was released to Stable as a critical update outside of our scheduled maintenance period. This was because of a serious issue with the connection logic that could trap some players in the "dead" state. There was also a critical bug with looting other players inventory. These have been fixed.

Known Issues:

- Animations: Right hand twitches during pointing, character twitches once when middle finger is activated/deactivated
- Actions: If player puts burlap sack from his head to ground his vision stays black

New:

- Animations: Ruger 10/22 hand pose
- Animations: It's now possible to blend directly between various gesticulation states (pointing,finger,greeting...)
- Crafting: Can repair clothes, weapons, and items using specialist items (such as sewing kit)
- Gear: Configured sewing kit and its recipes
- Gear: Added configuration for durable riders jacket
- Gear: Added Cowboy hats to the loot spawns (multiple colors)
- Gear: Added Sewing kit to the loot spawns
- Gear: Added B95 and 762 speedloader to loot spawns
- Gear: Added configuration for durable riders jacket
- Gear: Added durable leather jacket to loot spawns
- Gestures: Thumbs Up gesture added with default F7 key binding
- Server: Optimization of synchronization of textures/materials (minor improvement to server FPS)
- Systems: Falling now causes dynamic damage (roughly, fall of >5m break legs depending on equipment, >15m probably death)

Fixed:

- Actions: Could not cover another players head with a burlap sack
- Actions: No longer spawns clones of sack after Remove Head Cover action
- Actions: Removing Head Cover (burlap sack) while inventory is full won't leave you blind and without burlap sack anymore
- Art: Duplicate geometry in lower resolution LODs of flannel shirt resulted in visual bug at distance.
- Animations: Fixed an issue where the player would stay zoomed-in in sights for reload while aiming in prone
- Animations: Player should now be force-disarmed when clapping while holding a single-handed weapon.
- Animations: Pointing and clapping now works even when initiated from aimed states
- Animations: Fixed an issue where the left hand would stay glued to the FNX45 for aimed prone reload
- Animations: Default rifle aim stance (stand and crouch) slightly changed to better fit different guns
- Animations: Twitches on right hand fixed when holding an item while middle finger and pointing.
- Crafting: Cannot combine ruined stacked objects (such as ammo, rags)
- Crafting: Cannot chamber/load magazine with ruined ammunition
- Crafting: Motorbike helmet visors didn't retain their type when spray-painting the helmet
- Crash: Game Crash when using FLUSH command
- Crash: Out of bounds crash when no sounds defined
- Inventory: Loot would stay on dead character after it is picked up, causing teleporting loot and general chaos
- Medical: Cleaning wounds with alcohol tincture doesn't add last stage of infected wounds
- Medical: Vomiting/Stuffed was completely broken. Now simplified and streamlined
- Melee: Short melee weapons do damage now (hammer, screwdriver, hammer, hacksaw)

- Weapons: Ballistic parameters of all projectiles tweaked for more realism (special thanks to Gews for his great analysis on weapon characteristics)
