## Inventory Items Icons

* Changed item rotating / scrolling behavior, holding CTRL while scrolling will now enable rotation, and not holding it will scroll through the inventory,

* Items can now be directly transferred from vehicles / chests to vehicles / chests

* Double clicking clothes in vicinity will now equip the item (double clicking them in container view will still open the container)

* Increased menu scrolling speed.

* Chests which have a player given name will only show the name in containers view.

* Items got from searching containers will now correctly show their durability

* Selected items will now consistently have a red outline.

* Added tooltip expand hint text to item tooltips

* Reworked dragging item on the floor. Should be much more permissive.

* Made it possible to examine and manipulate other prisoner's inventory even when their hands aren't tied. They do need to give consent by using the 'surrender' gesture.

**We are having an icon rework going on, as there are a lot of items it will take some time to adjust them all, but for this patch we have adjusted all ranged and melee weapons.**

* Item icons are proportional (as much as possible) to each other and make more sense regarding the size.

* Overall icons sizes have been increased so we avoid backpacks with 6 MP5 rifles.

* New prettier icons.

One possible issue that you can encounter is when you open your inventory first time after this patch that you will see this:

No need for panic, this is intentional so that inventory doesn't go haywire and losses all your items. Once you pull out the items that are overlapping and try to put them back in it will work like before.

## Lighting

**We did 2 changes in the lightning section.**

* First we added a little ambient light to the player that will help you navigate in the pitch darkness of nights. This is how it looks.

*Keep in mind, we didn't increase any global light or anything in that area, its just a small radius bubble that has that blue light glow, and only the player can see it, other people can't.*

* Light sources such as fires and car lights now cast shadows. This should reduce light leaks through solid structures. Additionally light intensity and range on those lights have been further adjusted.

* Under options you can find it under "DistanceFieldShadows"

## Puppet Spawning System

* POI, large towns with police stations, military bunkers (outside/inside) have 100% chance to spawn puppets with a cooldown of 30min between spawns. This means that the first player to reach the POI will activate all the spawners, and once he moves away (ignores/kills all the puppets) the POI won't spawn any puppets for the next 30min. This will come in handy since you will be able to tell that someone was at that specific location before you.

* Refresh rate for indoor spawns has been nerfed, this means that you will no longer encounter endless hordes of puppets while looting bunkers or any other indoor areas.

* Puppet spawn rates for SP are higher than MP because there is only 1 person on the server and he can take all 64 slots for AI spawns. This will result in more adrenaline filled and immersive experience.

* Possible issues regarding new puppet spawn system:

* Sometimes you will see puppets spawn in front of you when venturing outdoors , sometimes puppets will get stuck behind doors in underground bunkers, number of puppet spawned in some interiors is maybe too high.

* The issues mentioned shall be resolved as we continue polishing the new spawn system.

## Mute Command

* Current #mute admin command renamed to #silence (functionality stays the same).

* New #mute command mutes the desired player locally, preventing him to send messages only to you.

#mute \*playername\* or #mute \*SteamID64\*
Keep in mind if you mute a person through the SteamID64 that player won't be able to send you messages on any server from any character.
* New #mute command does not require admin status.

* Similar changes made to #unmute and #listmutedplayers commands.

#unmute - removes the desired player from the local list of muted players, allowing their messages to once again be received
#listmutedplayers - lists all locally muted players by their SteamIDs
