= March 17th 2020 December 24th 2022 ='''Version 56.56.3.1''' - Game mechanics changes, new ammo typesScary Snipers with Braking Power Mini-Update
Changes This update was entirely designed by GenericArchangel to [[Recoil]]:* Recoil calculation and effects no longer rely on exact shot order, but now instead only needs total shots fired, significantly cutting down on the amount of time that needs to be spent counting and checking shots.* The new Recoil system works as follows: Every Recoil level has fix a limit of shots (the Accuracy Drop Threshold, or ADT) that can be fired - if a character shoots over ADT, accuracy and aim wandering effects are applied to the entirety of the shot string, and not just the shots that go over ADT. A second level with even more severe penalties is applied if the amount of shots fired is equal to more than double the limit.** As before, going over ADT will result in aim wandering (which sends shots to &bodyaim instead of the desired point of aim), however instead of being applied only starting from the shot that went over the limit, aim wandering applies flaw related to ALL shots if the total amount of shots fired goes over the limit. [[Weapon accessories#Laser sights|Laser sights]] still cancel out this aim wandering effect.** Accuracy windows and effects of going over ADT once and twice will also be updatedmuzzle brakes.
* Changes to [[Combat modeWeapon accessories]] and [[Weapons]]; specifically, '''** [[WeaponsWeapon accessories#Firearm failure typesMuzzle brakes|critical failureMuzzle brakes]]''' effects:* Like with Recoil changes above, critical failure effects no longer rely on knowing exact shot order, but only the total shot count, and in particular the critical failure count.** '''Failures If equipped to eject (stovepipes)''': For every stovepipe a weapon that occurs, the two highest scoring shots (excluding critical failures) are cancelled. If 3 stovepipes occur in is also equipped with a single string of firescope, the 6 highest scoring shots are never fired. This has the potential of cancelling critical hits.** brake limits that weapon'''Failures s maximum Recoil to fire (misfires)''': No changes.** '''Failures to feed''': *** If '''2 or less''' occurred during the same string 6 on top of fire: Same as stovepipesapplying its normal Recoil -1 effect.*** If '''3 or more''' occurred during the same string of fire: All shots are cancelled and the In this case, if that weapon is considered to be '''jammed'''; this can be fixed by performing a reload action.** '''Failures s Recoil were to burn''': No changesexceed 6 after applying all modifiers, it is treated as 6.
New [[ammunition types]] for pistol and rifle calibers:
* '''Tracer (T)''': FMJ bullets with an illuminating compound at the base of the bullet, which lights up and displays bright, colored light when fired. Tracer ammunition is used to visibly see the flight path of a bullet, and is useful for controlling long strings of fire, particularly full auto, as it allows a shooter to physically see where the bullets are going.
** Effects: Increases ADT by a certain amount of shots, which scales with Recoil level. However, it always breaks Stealth even when shot with a silenced firearm; the tracer light works both ways and can be seen by others, thus revealing your position.
*** Recoil 1-2: ADT +4 shots
*** Recoil 3-4: ADT +3 shots
*** Recoil 5-6: ADT +2 shots
*** Recoil 7-8: ADT +1 shots
* '''Semi-Armor Piercing (SAP)''': Also known as metal-piercing bullets, they offer a lower cost alternative to full AP or APX, but are less effective at defeating armored targets.
** Effects: 0.8x damage against unarmored ACs, 1.3x damage against armored ACs.

'''Version 5.44''' - Various changes in various domains
* '''Buff to the [[gohei]] and [[shaku]]''': Each weapon now gains a Charge point when killing a creature it is designed to deal double damage to, and for every Charge point it holds, the weapon deals an additional LDV+1. If at least 1 Charge point is in the weapon, the user can use a special attack ("Terminating Seal" for the gohei, "Cleansing Fire" for the shaku) which will allow the weapon to temporarily deal quadruple (4x) damage instead of just double against the species it is designed to hurt, for one turn only. On the following turn, the weapon loses all of its Charge points.= October 3rd 2022 =* Introducing a new type of key item, the '''skeleton key'''; 10 different types exist, from Type 0 to Type 9Version 6. The purpose of a skeleton key is to open any mechanical lock, as long as the type matches the first digit of the lock's serial number (e5.g4. a Type 2 skeleton key will open any lock from 2000 to 2999).** Skeleton keys break after one use.** They can be sometimes found in '''&stuff'''.** They can also be crafted; two new crafting blueprints, '''SkelKeyA''' and '''SkelKeyB''' were introduced. In a first for the game, these recipes also require a certain skill level in Lockpicking in order to use (respectively, Lv2 - Basic, and Lv3 - Skilled).* Introducing a new type of toolkit, the '''hacking tool''', which is essentially an electronic lockpick. Hacking tools are disposable devices with electronic spoofing software; they can be used up to 10 times, then brick themselves.** It replaces the HX-1337 series of hacking augmentations, which have been scrapped from the game.** Modifications to the hacking mini-games were made to accomodate for the new hacking tool.** The '''&loginwords''' command was renamed to '''&words''', and its dictionary of words was increased from 810 to 8738 words.* '''Kasha buffs''': Kasha base stats have been improved (Base limb health: 43 -> 60, Max Blood 12 -> 17, Pain sensitivity 163% -> 117%), and their old "Savage" ability was removed, and replaced with two new abilities, '''Natural Hunter''' and '''Savage Mode''':** '''Natural Hunter''': As a passive ability, kasha claws are tough enough to allow for Butchering without the need for a suitable tool. All Kasha also start with Lv2 - Basic in Hunting.** '''Savage Mode''': Kasha can, at will, give themselves +10.0% Stress in exchange for +40% Strength and -40% Pain Sensitivity for 20 turns. If Savage Mode is already active, Kasha can activate the ability again to extend the remaining duration by another 20 turns.* '''Nerfing [[Ammunition#Pistol and rifle caliber projectiles|UHS ammunition]]''': It now deals 1.3x damage (Pain and LD) instead of 1.4x.* '''Changes to MAIM''': Rie "Fireball" Kirari, being a kasha, now benefits from the new abilities introduced above. Her natural Pain Sensitivity was also lowered to 87%.* '''Changes to healing''': First Aid Kits and Field Surgery Kits now instantly heal HP instead of HP over time (Light: +7 HP; Strong: +12 HP). The bonuses introduced by the Healing skill now give additional HP to all of the limbs not targeted by the FAK/FSK - +1 HP at Basic, +2 HP at Skilled, +3 HP at Expert, and +4 HP at Master. The bonus HP is free and costs no Nutrition or Fatigue.Archery rule patch
==== [[Weapons]] and [[Ammunition]] ====
* The rules now explicitly specify that [[Arrow|Arrows]], [[Large bolt|Large bolts]] and [[Small bolt|Small bolts]] can be reused, according to specific conditions.
** Under normal conditions, all hits and misses produce arrows that can be retrieved. Only critical failures result in arrow or bolt breakage.
** If the arrowhead is XPL (Explosive): All hits and misses result in detonation, making explosive arrows 100% non-reusable.
** If the arrowhead is IMP (Improvised): Misses and critical misses result in breakage. Only hits are reusable.

Unlike most other shops in the Mazes, the majority of their inventory is not random.* Items sold at convenience stores are divided in four aisles: Food aisle, Ammo aisle, First Aid aisle, and Misc aisle.* Each convenience store belongs to one of five chains; 4'''24-SevenGuns, Fusco's BodegaBlood, Angelstop, Circle H''' and '''Tomato Konbini'''.

== New food items == [[Addictions]] ====* 11 new New addiction mechanics simplifying the previous system: As before, using a substance comes with a percentage chance of becoming addicted. However, the withdrawal tiers now function differently and improved rations have been introducedmore simply. Now, replacing every use of an addictive substance is a chance to increase the previous current addiction level by 1, from the minimum of 0 (no effects) to the maximum of 3 completely.* New category Instead of food item, 'disabling corresponding withdrawal effects when an addictive substance''powdered drinks'''. Powdered drinks s effects are inedible active, withdrawal effects are now truly permanent and continue being active even if the character uses the corresponding substance. In other words, usage effects and withdrawal effects now stack.* [[Hospital]]: Addiction removal is now tier based and depends on their ownthe current level. It now costs 250 P$ and 2 day periods of mandatory rest per level, but can be combined with up to 750 P$ and 6 day periods (1 full day) for treating a bottle single Level 3 addiction.* Addiction effects: To account for the possibility of water med effects and withdrawal effects being active simultaneously, the following withdrawal effects have been modified:** Nicotine withdrawal*** Level 1: Minimum Stress set to create 15.0%** Alcohol withdrawal*** Level 1: Need a drink.(level 1) applies to this character (see below), ** 8 powdered * Level 2: Need a drink packets(level 2) applies to this character (see below), and 8 corresponding craftingAgility -only beverages introduced1*** Level 3: Need a drink (level 3) applies to this character (see below), Agility -2, IS tier +1, Hallucinations** Cannabis withdrawal*** Level 1: Mild munchies*** Level 2: Minimum Stress set to 15.0%, Mild munchies, Mild thirst* 20 new types of regular food items introduced** Level 3: Minimum Stress set to 30.0%, many of which can be found in the new rationsIntense munchies, Mild thirst** Anabolic steroid withdrawal*** Level 1: Minimum Stress set to 30.0%*** Level 2: Minimum Stress set to 60.0%*** Level 3: Minimum Stress set to 90.0%, Rage** Sick hakutaku syndrome*** Level 1: IR +1*** Level 2: FT +1, IR +1*** Level 3: FT +1, IR +1, Hallucinations
All ==== [[Effects]] ====* Alcohol affinity ([[Oni]] creature trait): Effect simplified. Instead of both halving Inebriation received and doubling the new items have been added to the '''Stress relief effect of [[FoodEffects#Stress|Need a drink]]to compensate, this trait now simply doubles the Stress relief effect but gives the normal amount of Inebriation.* The "Need a drink" effect has been delineated into 4 variants; Level 0, Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. In essence, the "Need a drink" effect progressively offers less and less Stress relief per Inebriation gained as your character''' pages level of Alcohol addiction increases.

== General changes == [[Food]] ====* Blood no longer naturally heals at a rate of 0.1 per turn, making Pain the only statistic that naturally regenerates every turn no matter what. If you Food items other than packaged rations and canned goods now have no wounds, your current Blood level stabilizes at its current leveldifferent weight values.* Natural blood regeneration is now tied to the daily reset; on top Instead of the nutrition/hydration that is normally lost at midnight ingame, your body will attempt to regenerate being all 1 unit of Blood on its own every day (as long as there are no open wounds at that moment). Upon hitting the daily resert, you will lose 150 ntri and 2% Fatigue, and regenerate 1 Blood instantly. This is intended to incite finding BTKs or pay for a medic. If neither is possible, the tried and tested "buy food and let it heal over a few days" also works, however it they may take several in-game days for large amounts be any one of lost Blood. * Blood Transfusion Kits now carry 3 units of Blood each instead of 5. Full BTKs now cost 350 P$ instead of 550 P$.* A new type of medical item ('''Epoetin-alfa''', syringe) can be consumed to start a 20-turn effect resembling the old natural regeneration effectfollowing: +0.1 Blood per turn25, in exchange for -15 ntri and +0.2% Fatigue per turn. In total5, the item would help your body regenerate up to 2 Blood but burn up to 300 ntri and 4% Fatigue. Syringes of Epoetin-alfa cost 100 P$, making them the cheapest syringe-type medical item.* Changes to '''Augmentations''': The Guardian LSS no longer increases the amount of Blood regenerated per turn, since that mechanic is gone. Instead, each level increases the amount of Blood regenerated every day by 1, at no extra cost of nutrition and fatigue. Level 1 therefore lets you heal 2 Blood per day, Level 2 is or 3 Blood per day, and Level 3 is 4 Blood per day, all for the same cost of 150 ntri/2% Fatigue per turn, making it viable to heal large amounts of Blood loss over the space of a few days.* Changes to '''Clothing protections''': Buffs to protection ratings. ''-Resistant'' will prevent injuries on hits dealing up to 4 limb damage (previously, 2), and ''-PROOF'' will prevent injuries on hits dealing up to 8 limb damage (previously, 4)units.

The main differences introduced by Survival are as follows:* No towns or intersections as players know them Fast- Survival is an endless Uncivilized Area streak, equivalent to a Deep route. Explorable areas can even still be found and completed for their rewards!food* Nutrition and Hydration Reset occur every time the Survivor reaches a Trading Post (TP reset). In turn, the reset is much lower than normal. The base values are 420 ntri and 140 wtr (0.2x a normal daily reset).* Date and time are not tracked.* No Faction Reputation and no Renown to worry about.* All skills are unlocked5: Survivors start with Unskilled in all non-combat skills Fries, Fried potatoes, Nuggets (unless skill levels were purchased at Startgame6)* The Survivor starts with a MAIM account, with all generic and regular named mercenaries available Pizza (Special mercs are not available as they're tied to the story1 slice).* Every 50 rooms, the Survivor will find a Trading PostSandwich, which is nothing more than an intersection with a fixed amount of shops and services (see below for details)Cup noodles* On the room following every second Trading Post (1011: Cheeseburger, 201Double cheeseburger, 301...), the Survivor will find a Challenge. Completing the Challenge is necessary to progress forwards!* If playing on Tier X, X corresponds to the amount of Challenges the player must complete in order to reach the end.** There is no upper limit on the Tier number Nuggets (and subsequent amount of Challenges20), though in order to keep games from being unreasonably longHamburger, the author's recommendation is to keep it between 1 and 10Hot-dog, and any longer games should be Endless instead.** The author personally recommends firstChili-time players and GMs to try Survival Tier 4dog, for a 401Corn-room adventure.dog, Hot-gon* Mercenaries function differently2:Potato chips** The time-based hiring rates do not apply, and are instead replaced by a 50-room hiring rate 3: Pizza (corresponds to the distance between Trading Posts8 slices). That special rate is equivalent to 2x the 24-hour rate.** Upon being hired, a mercenary will immediately join the Contestant with no waiting time.** Merc deaths do not need to be reported.** All mercenaries show up with their gear. There are no gear costs - their equipment is essentially free.** All special parameters are ignored.

== Freeform play === Changes to rations =====This is essentially the normal game, but without main story quests or sidequests and with certain shops, services and other conveniences immediately available. This mode aims at a more relaxed experience, without the pressure The contents of the pre-made main story, as well as offering an opportunity to design your own stories and plotsspecific rations have been changed.
The main differences introduced by Freeform are as follows* Ration B1:* All skills are unlocked. Freeform characters start with Unskilled in all non-combat skills, as well as a MAIM account.* The Freeform character starts with a MAIM account, with all generic Added 1 extra pack of whole wheat biscuits and regular named mercenaries available (Special mercs are not available as they're tied to the story).1 can of spam** Reputation and Renown requirements from certain mercenaries are disabled.Ration B2: Removed 1 packet of powdered coffee* Roazon is collapsed, exactly as it would after the Contestant completes Sidequest S3-2.* All repeatable activities are availableRation L1: Trading Missions, Mercenary Contracts, Mining, Removed 5 cigarettes and Bounty Hunter5 safety matches* Several shops and services that are normally only obtained as sidequest rewards are available from the startRation L2:Added 1 can of pasta with tomato sauce** The Power Armor Shop (Ferland Sector) is available and fully upgraded.** The Advanced Handloading Services are available at the Ellen Sector factory.** The Powder & Primer Shop is available at the Littleton factory.* Renown and Reputation are disabledRation S1: All item quantities doubled, to allow GMs more flexibility.** It is recommended to replace any rewards in Renown/Rep with money, where applicable added 2 milk and where it would make sense. (e.g. Vigilante work)cereal bars
===== Other food related changes =====
= January 17th 2019 =* [[LBE]]: All LBE with a Food holster: the effect is replaced to "max weight: 3" instead of "max items: 2"'''Version 5.1''' * [[Style shop]]: Custom food holsters are now weight- KISS Update (Keep It Simplebased instead of item count-based, Stupid!)as above.
This update aims at simplifying several game mechanics deemed too granular or generally not fun enough.==== [[Meds]] ====First Aid Kits (FAKs) and Field Surgery Kits (FSKs) receive simplifications to make them easier to use and manage:
== Simplified nutrition and hydration ==* Nutrition FAKs and hydration FSKs no longer decay at a rate serve as mini containers capable of 1 per turn. Insteadcarrying extra meds (IBs, these stats are slashed by a set amount at a fixed rate and frequencyparacetamol, to symbolize meeting daily recommended needs; these are called the '''Nutrition Reset''' and '''Hydration Reset'''HAP, epinephrine, respectivelyetc.** Nutrition is reset every day at midnight. The reset will reduce the current Nutrition by an amount equivalent to (meat worth x 30). For a human, that amount is 2100 ntri. ** Hydration is reset every day at midnight. The reset will reduce the current Hydration by an amount equivalent to (meat worth x 10). For a humanInstead, that amount is 700 wtr.* Nutrition FAKs and hydration each have new value ranges and corresponding effects; they FSKs are generally simpler and more clearnow multiple-cut effectsuse.** Nutrition going too high will increase minimum FatigueFAKs have 3 uses before depletion, FSKs have 5 uses (1d3 and eventually reduce Agility.1d5 on randomly found ones)** Nutrition going too low will decrease StrengthNo changes to pricing or limb healing effects, and eventually disable the ability to all 3 uses of an FAK can therefore heal Pain, Blood or Limb Damage (due up to the body not having the "fuel" to do so).** Hydration going too low will decrease Strength21 HP, then Accuracy, then cause Hallucinationsand all 5 uses of an FSK, until eventually causing death60 HP.
== Simplified fatigue == [[Hotel|Hotels]] ====A new hotel classification has been added: Love Hotels.* Fatigue no longer gradually increases every turn Falls outside of the luxury level (what was called "natural fatigue"star system). Effects that can increase Fatigue bit by bit every turn still do exist.offering a unique service, represented by a heart symbol (♡)* The "Energized" tier is deletedLove hotel rooms possess a single king-size bed intended mainly for couples, similar to ★★★★ hotels.* Reaching an amount of Fatigue equal Love hotels only allow you to 2x Endurance will result in deathbook a room if you have at least one partner, and booking only lasts 4 hours, not 24. The intention is to provide couples (or groups) with the privacy needed for intimacy.* All effects of high fatigue now decrease AgilityIn exchange, and eventually decrease accuracy and cause Hallucinationsthe stay is cheap - just [[File:Parallar symbol.png|10px]]'''50''' to get in.
== Simplified clothing and armor ==Several towns received new hotels:* Clothing Neutral towns** Calfair Sector - ★★ Rudolf's Lodge** Littleton - ★★ Little Inn** Nanton - ★★★ Slow Wave Hotel** Ovis City - ★ The Roadside Resort** Saker - ♡ The Serial Inn* Angelic towns** Alba Radium - ★ Guiding Light Inn** Beatus - ★★★ Dreamers House** Divus Nitor - ★★ The Celestial Auberge** Semitas - ★★ Quietus Inn* Demonic towns** Flaxton - ★ The Hotelion** Novysera - ★ The Bonfire** Rog - ♡ Heat Wave Hotel** Temno - ♡ Jam and armor can no longer sustain damage, period.

Multipliers ** Masatomo - ★★★ Lodge of the Fork** Kazama - ★★ Amane Hotel (0天音 HOTEL, lit.5x or 2x"Divine Sound Hotel") affect the result of that 1d4** Kijirou - ★★★ Dou to Gin (銅と銀, and it is always rounded uplit."Copper and Silver")
== Simplified weapon maintenance ==A few existing hotels changed classification:* The Reliability/Max Cleanliness stat is scrapped.Ellen Sector - Warm Case Hotel - Was ★★, becomes ♡* Durability is renamed Max ConditionAbakash - Brim Inn - Was ★★, and all firearms' Max Condition values have been rewritten.becomes ♡* Critical failures have been completely revamped and simplified. Condition is now meant to be lost on a critical failure, and for each 2 rolled, the new command Garica Block - Marion'''@critfail''' must be used.** @critfail contains 80 possible effects, half of which are simple condition loss effects (ranging from 100 to 2000). The other half are condition loss effects (ranging from 50 to 1000) with a weapon failure (failure to fire, eject, etc.) effect on top. If the relevant weapon is a melee weapon or does not have a corresponding weapon failure types Inn - Was ★★, the condition loss effect is doubled instead.becomes ♡
Changes ==== [[Creatures]] and [[Occupations]] ====The following creatures and occupations received changes to handloadingtheir loadouts and skills:* Load level (hotness) of ammunition affects the severity of the Condition loss on a critical failure. -P/Cold: Condition loss x0.5. +P/Hot: Condition loss x2. +P+/Super: Condition loss x4.* Powder quality of ammunition also affects the severity of the Condition loss on a critical failure. Surplus: Condition loss x3. Premium: Condition loss x0.5.* These effects may stack. Round up any results.* If shooting ammunition of mixed hotness or powder quality in the same turn (''not recommended!''), the hottest and dirtiest ammunition fired that turn is used as a reference for ''all'' rounds fired that turn.
Changes to * [[Escort]]: [[Glock 26]] loadout replaced with [[Glock 19]] and 15-round mags* [[Escort boss]]: [[Para P-14]] loadout replaced with [[Para P-18]], two magazines, and 9x19mm Standard JHP ammo* [[Janitor]], [[Head janitor]]: [[Broom]] replaced with [[Mop]]* [[Acolyte]]: New Primary 2 weapon accessories:[[Round shield]].
