Current Issues: Unfortunately, the issue on Lost Island that significantly affects performance persists. Another issue affects users playing on very low graphics settings. In these settings, Global Illumination should be set to "High," as otherwise, the ground on the Lost Island map will not be displayed correctly.
Resolved Issues: There was an issue during the construction of buildings involving a wall (Wooden Wall Frame) that prevented the attachment of a roof. This problem has now been resolved.
Additionally, missing textures, particularly on containers in Tropical Island, have been corrected.
A bug that caused AI to appear even when the character was not nearby, resulting in significant framerate drops, has been fixed.
The farming system has undergone a slight adjustment to ensure that plants do not decay too quickly in the absence of water or fertilizer. It is important to note that plants should not be in the shade, as this can hinder proper growth and lead to their demise.
Furthermore, other minor issues have been addressed. Some users may have received the update twice. This occurred due to a small error, and another update has been provided to rectify this issue. Thank you for being part of the KeepUp Survival Community. Your engagement and feedback have played a crucial role in implementing these improvements.

A interim update has been released, addressing the following issues:
Planting beds can now be placed correctly, and the first-person camera after exiting a vehicle has been fixed.
The blockage caused by placing the UV roof has been resolved, allowing for the placement of water sprinklers and the planting of crops.
A minor issue triggered upon dismounting from the horse has also been rectified.

I am excited to announce the exciting developments in KeepUp Survival! After intense work and based on your valuable feedback, I present the latest update. The update is substantial at 15 GB, but this is due to the reconfiguration of the engine.
IMPORTANT: Before diving in, there are some crucial points to note that some users may need to address to avoid issues. Error Message: If an error message appears when starting the game, please check the freshness of your graphics driver. It is also possible that your system is outdated, as the game now relies on DX12, and older PCs may encounter issues. To play nonetheless, enter the following launch command in Steam: -DX11
Key Bindings: The issue with saving key bindings has been successfully resolved. However, some users may need to follow a specific step; otherwise, the game might not save key bindings correctly due to changes made. To fix this, please delete the specified folder, for example, by removing the file:
Note: Make changes only if you know exactly what you are doing! Each user is responsible for their actions.
Deleting this folder will allow the game to regenerate files upon startup, and saving key bindings will then work as usual. This instruction applies exclusively to users who have owned the game for an extended period!
Farming System: Preparations went mostly smoothly, but not all possible plants have been integrated yet. Currently usable plants are listed below: Potato, Tomato, Corn, Carrot, Watermelon, Cucumber and Pumpkin.
What to Expect in the Update: Revised Farming System: The farming system has been adjusted to the day-night cycle, influencing your crop yields.
You can now craft the following items: UV light, heat lamp, small and large sprinklers. Manual water addition is done using untreated water! Additionally, you can now use fertilizer to increase yields.
Further improvements and adjustments will occur in the course of development!
Greenhouses and Their Functions: Existing components allow you to build greenhouses that provide UV light and warmth to your plants even at night.
Game Interface Improvements: Minor issues in the HUD have been fixed, and the character preview has been improved for better clarity.
Save Key Bindings: Now you can save your individual key bindings. I recommend performing a key binding reset to ensure everything works smoothly.
If the reset still leaves the keys empty, follow the instructions above.
Note: Currently, there may be cases where a reset leaves the keys empty. A solution to this problem is actively being worked on.
Animal Functions (AI) Overhauled: To enhance performance and improve gameplay flow, the AI has been reworked. The AI now reacts to how far you are. When you reach a certain radius, the AI is deactivated. If you exceed another radius, the AI is automatically removed from the game.
When you hunt an animal, it remains until you've harvested everything. However, if you move away, a timer is triggered. This timer ensures that the animal is removed from the game if you do not return.
General Improvements: I have also fixed other minor issues in the game to optimize the overall gaming experience.
Work has been done to improve frame rates. Currently, there is a known issue on the Lost Island Map in the starting area at the farm, affecting frame rates significantly. Efforts are actively underway to address this problem. If you notice anything in this regard causing frame rate drops, please let me know.
Improvements and issue resolutions have also been made on Red Desert and Tropical Island.
The update will go live shortly. Stay tuned and look forward to experiencing these exciting new features!

Update brings important multiplayer fixes and HUD improvements!
KeepUp Survival, an extensive update has just been made available. With important problem fixes and improvements in multiplayer mode, as well as other small adjustments, this update is a big step forward.
However, there may still be issues in multiplayer mode, as multiplayer is not yet mature compared to single player mode.
Multiplayer improvements: One of the standout features of this update is the resolution of multiplayer issues. This ensures that players have a smooth and enjoyable experience when playing with friends or against others.
Currently, there is an issue in multiplayer mode where players cannot use their items as intended. However, these issues only affect teammates and not the host. It works reasonably smoothly in the first-person perspective, but repeated pressing is required in the third-person perspective. Another problem that has been added is the unreliability of hitting items. Work is still underway to get these issues back under control as soon as possible.
HUD misrepresentation fixed:. The display of the HUD in multiplayer mode has also been corrected. Now players can clearly see all important information without being bothered by unexpected display issues.
For example, the correct display of items that were not always shown correctly to the teammate to create things like an axe.
Minor issues fixed: In addition to the major multiplayer improvements, minor issues have also been addressed to make the game smoother and more bug-free overall. This means that players will have an even more enjoyable experience.
Loot Boxes in their proper place: Another highlight of this update is the correction of Loot Boxes that were previously out of place in unexpected places. Now they are back in the right places!
I hope that this update will significantly improve your gaming experience in KeepUp Survival. Have fun playing and exploring the new and improved features! Stay tuned, there are many exciting developments in the future!
