The todays update provides you with the following new features.

Touch Support and Fullscreen Mode

Because of some former UI changes I had to remove the touch support temporarily. With this new version the option is back, together with the recommended full screen mode.

Better feedback for “Nope”

Quite a lot of negative feedback (“You cannot do that”) was only given by a certain soundFX. This led to some confusion. Now you also get visual feedback, when things cannot be done for several reasons.

• When luring failed or when for example a Car cannot be searched, because it is locked, the affected card is shaking
• When your energy is too low for executing certain actions, the energy bar is shaking
• When your health gets reduced because you are starving etc., the health bar is shaking
• Only when health gets critical low, the orange vignette is still coming up (mention this again, because it fits so well and some might have missed that)

New loot and crafting option

Tape is an important item – and it will get even more important in the future. This update gives you the option to not only find tape, but to craft it. For that you need the new cloth item (can be found mainly in houses) and glue. Glue can be cooked from bones and water over a fireplace.

Sleeping and resting

Regaining your energy also got some improvement. For one, the cottage now also counts as a house, which means, you can also sleep in these buildings (instead of just resting, like it was before). And the nighttime from 22 – 6 now gives a bonus both on resting and sleeping. To make this change even more rewarding, the regained energy during the day is slightly decreased – keep your sleeping and resting for the night is the way to go now.

More tutorial cards

Three additional events now trigger new tutorial cards in the moment players encounter them for the first time.

I hope you like the new features. Not over-confident regarding the absense of any new bugs, but as always - I will fix them as   soon as I am aware of them :-)

I will swing over to another Jam within the next weeks. So next update for 9 Dayz might take a little longer.
