• Items placed in exotic drop pods that can't be taken up to space are now put into an overflow bag instead of destroyed
  
• Correcting the chicken coop not having the correct PMs set on the roof collision boxes - causing the audio to sound like walking on dirt instead of wood which would seriously effect the players immersion causing mass panic
