←  March Update Hotfix • • • • • List of Patches • • • • •  FNIX Rising →

*April Update 2020 - April 27, 2020*
## Tweaks

* Changed the "bar" on the Profile screen to show the stat effects as a percentage to match the crafting menu

* Added a "Fast Travel Disabled" message when unable to move due to being over-encumbered

* Added quality levels to crafted items in the Profile screen to match how other items display quality level

* When over-encumbered you will only be able to walk, no longer will you be able to jog at certain thresholds; ultimately if you carry far too much weight you will be unable to move

* Increased the base carrying weight from 48 to 64

* When over-encumbered, the "unable to sprint" message will now be shown all the time until freeing up weight

There has also been some work done to change how machines approach combat and the Harvester is specifically mentioned as a machine of interest.
