Tin Can Trap
Leading the new additions is the Tin Can Trap, a primitive but effective device crafted from hanging tin cans. When an unwary player triggers its tripwire, a loud clatter ensues, drawing attention from anyone within earshot. This versatile trap can be placed anywhere—from fortifying your base to guarding strategic points of interest. Despite its simplicity, this tool can become indispensable for detecting nearby threats!
Enhanced Sound Mechanics
If you thought hiding in bushes made you invisible, think again. The update introduces Replicated Bush Sounds, making rustling noises audible to nearby players. However, all is not lost for those who want to stay stealthy—slower movement produces quieter sounds, allowing you to sneak up on enemies under the cover of foliage if you tread carefully.
Realistic Underwater Item Behavior
Items dropped in water now behave more realistically, moving slower and responding to underwater currents. Additionally, these items release bubbles, making them easier to spot on the ocean floor—a small but significant improvement for underwater scavengers.
Zipline Improvements
Power line ziplines, already a popular mode of transportation, have received several enhancements in this update:
Ziplines now choose the farthest possible destination.
Maximum zipline length increased from 150m to 185m.
Ziplines can now end at higher points on power line structures.
Players can no longer fall off ziplines due to trees.
These changes promise longer, safer, and more elevated zipline journeys.
