Other bug fixes and experience optimization!
We are now about to enter development for our second major update (end of December). We would like to thank you for your support and we hope you continue enjoying Undying!
November 18th Weekly Update (CST)
We are working hard on our first Major Update since launching Early Access! So for this week, we have just a few key improvements and fixes to help address some of the more common issues being reported to us
Improvements:
- Cody is now more helpful! Once he learns how to use a slingshot, he will shoot to help Anling break free from a zombie’s grapple on his own.
- You no longer need to re-enter the “change location zone” while waiting for Cody to catch up.
- You are now not forced to walk slowly to certain spots to gather materials.
- Combat animations are more fluid and snappier.
- General optimizations
Bug fixes:
- Fixed an issue where synchronizing to the Steam Cloud will cause data to become invalid in some rare situations.
- Fixed an issue where Cody's slingshot sometimes falsely hits the enemy's feet
November 11th Update (CST)
Gameplay Adjustments
- Improved the Heater function – When the heater is on, Cody's cold will recover slowly over time.
- Optimized the Fishing Net in National Park and Harbor Factory - Using one piece of bait, you can come back after a while to harvest your catch!
New achievements

- What Doesn't Kill You... - Defeat an enemy while Anling has 1HP.
Other
- The development roadmap for EA has been announced. Go to our Steam page and the Main Menu to check it out!
- Now you have a tool to report bugs easily – it’s in the PAUSE screen. This will allow us to address bugs and replicate them much more efficiently.
Gameplay fixes
- Solved the issue where ""Cody Pick"" no longer appeared if you interrupted Cody when he’s trying to pick-up an item off the ground
- Solved the problem that Anling could still use supplies when she dies, which ended up causing freezing issues
- Solved an issue where medicines that can cure symptoms randomly but retain additional effects will still cure the symptoms even if they've already been cured
- Solved an animation glitch when your characters trying to skin animals
UI fixes
- Improved the readability of Cody’s status' (in Character Status screen) to reduce confusion about his food, water, and health.
- After the backpacks are upgraded, the total number of grids shown now displays correctly.
- Fixed an issue where the Backpack undid any sorting when moving to another location after hitting 'Sort'.
- Fixed a problem with various Slingshot ammunition that couldn't be selected by the mouse in the Tool Bench screen.
- After upgrading the stacking limits of the backpack, the storage box is still sorted according to the original stacking limits.
- Some in-game texts were eaten by zombies. We've since found these texts and cleaned them. They're now back.
Other fixes
- Solved an issue where the 'Lowest' quality settings did not apply properly.
- Melee attacks won't miss due to low frame rates anymore.
- For some Windows 7 users, the problem of freezing after playing the ending video is now solved.
