you can get one from the box by pressing [E]

Set audio priorities again, so there should be less sound effect interruptions in most of the situations
Disabled teleporting things (and player) up from under the map,

(as a decorative item and melee weapon, not a position changing device)

Added shovel (as a melee weapon, not for digging)
Added machine gun (and ammo for it)

Fixed bike mirror saying "Continue" instead of "Adjust Mirror"
Fixed an inventory load bug
Fixed crash on loading a save in which one basket is in an other which is in the first one...

------------------------------
v2021.06.05:

Added ammo for the revolver, you can now reload it
(if you load an older version save you will not have ammo in you weapons, because the weapon script got heavily changed, so they can be more realistic, and it will be easier to add weapons in the future)

Attaching and removing license plates got a lot more easier
The moped's basket is now attachable to anywhere (with G)
and the items you store in it won't fall out, like with the truck's fuel can holder
(it only works if the item is not falling out as soon as you release it, it has to stay there a litte bit, and then the physics is removed)
Same with the gloveboxes in every vehicle
You can now coil up the siphon hose a bit (by holding R) so it is easier to put it in the glovebox
(it is enough if only a bit of it is inside)
And you can drain fluids with it from containers/tanks, without an other can (by holding LMB)
The sink's hole is now actually a hole
(it has no collider there)
Small script optimizations and even smaller model optimizations

Fixed possible saving issues with truck and some small other things

Thank you for being patient, for the bug reports and for the save files, without those I couldn't have fixed these issues.
I know there are more, but now that it's relatively stable, I really want to focus on cpu optimization with the unity job system, it's possible, that it will fix a few crashes too, by looking at the crash logs. Content and feature updates will come after that :D

fixed an error which possibly caused a crash sometimes

changed front engine car's center of mass, so it feels less like a boat

next update will focus on optimizing cpu usage with unity job system (if for once there are no new bugs with the new update )

happy Halloween!

edit:
if after loading the game, some of you stuff is flying and not really reacting to you, just save and load again, and it should be fixed

------------------------------
v2019.10.05:

Added shadows in the settings, so now you can disable them
Added hook to trailers (now you can make a very buggy, unstable centipede)
Abandoned cars from now on may have fuel in them
Fixed being able to mount more stuff to the same place (this bug was born in the last update)
Fixed non-holster-able stuff not obeying gravity and maybe flying away to seek infinite freedom when switched to a different, occupied inventory slot while holding them.
Fixed being able to boost with ignition 'till 200 km/h

Refilling the car is more beginner friendly (you don't have to look exactly at the tank cap)
When you open a door, now you have to move the mouse in the direction you want the door to move, not just up and down, so it makes sense now
When dismounting tires from rims, they shouldn't fly away now
Slightly better performance and now the draw distance slider should work correctly so there will be no more crashes (because of the slider) and if you decrease it, the performance boost will be noticeable
Odometer's last digit, which shows 100 meters is now yellow
From now on you can't open the caps slightly with scrolling, because it not really had any use, and was in the way for smooth crouching or bringing objects closer.
smaller changes in map generation

Saves from last version should be able to load correctly :D

We had too many things planned and we ran out of time, so this week's big update got sliced into two parts, this is the first one, the second one will hopefully come next week.
Thank you all for playing!

------------------------------
v2019.09.28:

Fixed a bug where you couldn't save

------------------------------
v2019.09.27:

Second small update! (09.27)

Fixed a bug where you couldn't get out of the car
Added Autosave to battle random crashes, it saves every 2 mins, if you are not sitting (in car on anywhere else) and you can turn it off if you want, in the settings
Added oil can
Added icons to save, load, delete buttons, so maybe there will be less miss clicks
Changed steering wheel help texts again (and fixed a bug where they wouldn't go away even if you turn off the controls help in the settings)

Loading saves from version 20190926 should be okay.
In the next update (which hopefully will be big) there will be a method to get the fuel out of the tank safely and refuel other cars with it or store it in a can.

------------------------------
v2019.09.26:

Our first small update!

The Good part:

The other car is now significantly easier to find and you will also find abandoned cars more often

Added odometer (instrument used for measuring the distance traveled)
Added more help text when you pick up an item (mmb to rotate; rmb to move...)
Changed axes on wich the held items are rotated
Changed help texts when you look at the steering wheel so they are more clear
Renamed H2O to Water
Coolers are stronger so engine overheating will be less of a problem hopefully
The cars from now on need oil in the engine
Engine is now dismountable, like the doors and other parts
Getting out of the car is now easier
The plank in the garage is moved and changed slightly so maybe it won't slide for no reason (but no promises)
Fixed help texts not hiding during sleeping

The Bad part:

If you load an older version save file, your car won't have an engine :(
Because of things like this, the previous version will be always available in the beta section


Feel free to share your experiences, thoughts...

[xXx_b00bz_xXx]

Okay so I started a new game after the update, but my wheels are now missing after loading the new save. No where in sight.

[Interceptor]

I have some sugestions, if you add (in future of course) dismountable fuel tank, and ability to choose vehicle on the start it will be great :)

[Was.Paragon]

If you have a suggestion you can share with us on Our Discord server!
Discord[discord.gg]

[grody_antagonic]

Thanks for the update! You might want to post that on the news section though. I follow your game and that way I'll get the update news directly on my activity feed. Cheers!

[Genesz]

Thank you! the upcoming updates will be posted there.
I knew this wasn't the place for stuff like this I just couldn't find it :D but now I got it :D

[smokedog]

was the tires updated? because i loaded my game and all my tires was off the rims even my trailer had it happen.

[jo]

Framerate's really bad, what's up with that?
(other than that it's a fun game)

[Genesz]

No, the tires were not updated, I don't know what could cause that, some people said that if your tire is gone when you load the game, you should try loading it a few more times, and they will be there.

[Genesz]

We need more time to optimize the game to run better, until that maybe try to tweak the settings to see if you can get a better performance, for example turn off mirrors or reflections or decrease the draw distance
