The latest version update includes a several small changes reported and requested by beta testers in forum. Most of them are self-explanatory so we will just skip ahead to the two major gameplay changing concepts.

We have updated the scavenging containers (as discussed on the forum). Most generic locations used to have 10 scavenging containers.  This is currently is being changed to vary from 3-8 scavenging containers. We are also adding new containers including: a fire engine, burned out vehicle, a hearse, a tank, a chopper, a limo among few others.

We will be adding new items including suitable junk for barricades to support the "build your clan safehouse" concept. Having more items to choose from will lower the chance of the more valuable items additionally.

Another new change is that “trainers” that is special locations where you can train a skill will have a skill level cap. This means that you can only improve your skills to a certain level on the first “trainers” on map 1. Obviously the idea is that can’t just hang out at the college campus all the time but actually have to go and explore and find the higher level trainers at map 2 and map 3. Consequently we are also adding more “trainers” as we go along.

The skill level cap is being adjusted from the default value when it was implemented yesterday (as everything else it will also be subject to game balancing during the beta stage)

The other changes include:

• Bugfix: Text on the login and user creation pages was transparent. Only the background is transparent now.
• Bugfix: Tooltip on map would not grow to fit its text content.
• Bugfix: Fixed layout issues with the Facebook 'like' widget on the front pages.
• Bugfix: Fixed bug that caused you to return to the main ZP page when logging in after a session timeout. You now return to the page where you last were again.
• Bugfix: All popup dialogs are now shown immediately, not in the following page load.
• Addition: Popup when map has been completely explored.
• Addition: Combat multiplier now works for fleeing too. (suggested by skierdued)
• Addition: Skill modifiers are now shown in tooltips both on items in the inventory and the dialog for equiping items.
• Change: New logout button.
• Change: Email notifications when receiving an in-game private message are now enabled by default.
