Another devbuild for our patrons was released this week. In it there are fixes for some crashes, improvements like making npc cells move right after spawning and making the ambience tracks replay instead of only alternating between them. The new radiation sound effect is being worked on, it will increase intensity and change as the player gets near radioactive objects.
