Building and base defense also received attention in this update. A new set of electrical components has been added to the mix, allowing for more complex automated defense systems. These new sensors can distinguish between authorized players and intruders with higher precision, reducing the likelihood of "friendly fire" from your own shotgun traps. The devblog also teases upcoming changes to the building system, hinting at new aesthetic skins for stone and metal walls that will allow players to further customize their survival fortresses.

Fights rewarded players who invested massive amounts of time mastering the dreaded "S-curve" spray of the AK-47.
