PC Stable 1.20 Update 2 - Version 1.20.155817 (Released on 22.02.2023)

If your community server was impacted by the duplicated objects through object spawner usage, we are highly recommending to wipe your server contents - or revert to a previous storage version - to assure game stability. Not following this procedure can result in severe instabilities.

问题不完全是假服务器。 可能服务器管理员已经很久没有自己更新服务器文件了。 如果您查询 Steam，它将返回服务器的版本。 由此可以开始研究问题。 附言 对不起，我用的是谷歌翻译。

For nearly a year, the community has not been able to fix this problem officially, I am sure these servers are fake

The problem isn't exactly fake servers. Maybe the server admin hasn't updated the server files himself for a long time. If you query Steam, it will return the server's version. From here, the research question can begin. P.S. Sorry, I used Google Translate.

I am very grateful to the developers for noticing this problem. If you need any help, you can contact me in time. Of course, I hope that these problems can be dealt with in time in the future. A game that I like very much should not be destroyed

I found an bug. We cant combine the itens on controle of xbox

[Waffles-7d2319a9a28f4017 0]

Also found a bug on console, I can’t sprint anymore, custom server and before update I could click Lstick to spring but now I’m stuck walking and have to push my Lstick foward two or more times to slightly jog but no matter how many times I click or hammed on the Lstick I can not sprint which makes it nearly impossible to play with multiple zombies as when you try running you are unable to

Fantasy weights:

-large gas canister now weighs 4kg - 450ml butane weighs 270g - the old value of 340g was correct

-Heat pack now weighs 1.3kg - makes no sense at all - the package itself says 200g.

That's just what I saw right away in my gear.
