Release 0.48 2021-12-23 (Early Access)
🕑 Added 2021-12-23 21:51:57 +0000 UTCThe way weapons are held and wielded has had a complete re-work in this release. You can now choose which hand you hold your weapon in. Why? A fighting skill has been added in preparation for content that allows you to train that skill. It's not currently unlockable except via cheats, but allows characters to dual wield two weapons.
Every item in game now has a mass associated with it, and it is possible to become over-encumbered. So no more carrying around the corpses of your fallen enemies as a larder. Corpses are also tracking how fresh they are ready for tracking when they "go off". Searched corpses are now marked as junk so they get removed from the game if left lying around.
Finally, custom character Malena Vazin has been given her unique weapons.
If you encounter errors when playing please do report them to me!

As usual you will need to start a new game. Previous saves will not have the new content, and will likely fail to load.
Updated walk though and other documentation to follow...
