World - A NEW BIOM ADDED WITH UNIQUE APPEARANCE, UNIQUE ROADS AND PLACES (you can just continue on your way, it will appear after another tunnel) - Added post containers.

It's amazing how you welcomed the Redux update! I'm glad that my work is not in vain ːlunar2019piginablanketː Many thanks to everyone for the feedback, reviews and bug report. I appreciate it very much!
The update will be released in a few days and will include a brand new biome with exclusive roads and locations, a new evacuation system, post containers to send items to home, tons of fixes and improvements and doors for the Wrangel ːsfsmileː
I wanted to warn you that your house is being moved to a new location, please take things out of it (you can temporarily place them on the floor of the starter store).
An annoying bug may occur in the game - when you return home, some collected items disappear. So far, the solution - do not return home with a full trunk.
I will fix this bug as soon as possible, sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks for the great feedback, it helps make the game better!
In the very near future I will add (among other things) a motion blur setting and a key binding setting.
