Patch notes

Fixes

• Fixed sun not being blocked (rash activating and/or temperature going up) if you interact with a bed that is inside a shelter, while standing outside of such shelter.

• Fixed conditions applying damage while the game is paused.

Quality of Life

Shelter

• Swimming prevents rashes, regardless if your head is under the water or not.

• Temperature and sun exposure time is completely forgiven on old saves. The default regular temperature will be loaded. Since the math is different, the exposure time was triggering rashes or heatstrokes within a few seconds of loading the old saves on the new version sometimes.

• Sun shelter check is now made from the POV towards the sun, instead of towards directly above the player. This fixes some areas, like big rocks or trees, not preventing rashes.

• Increased the sun shelter distance from 7m to 50m.

• Sun exposure time threshold for rashes has been increased from 4 minutes to 5 (real time, game time can vary).

• Sun exposure time threshold for heatstroke has been increased from 6 minutes to 7 (real time, game time can vary).

• Increased temperature threshold for heatstroke to be closer to 40C (104F).

• Shelter regulates body heat 2 times as effective.

Consumption

• Aloe gel, which protects you from sunlight and prevents rashes, lasts 28% longer.

• Aloe gel now requires 2 aloe leaves instead of 3.

• Burnt food (regular, crab, bird and fish meats, potato) is more effective against food poisoning.

• Eucalyptus is more effective against infections.

• Mint tea and peppermint tea is more effective against food poisoning.

• Ginger tea and yucca tea is more effective against parasites.

• Cinchona bark tea is more effective against poison.

• Tobacco is more effective against poison.
