Update notes via Steam Community
Crafting in AREAZ was too hard, and you told me - in reviews, on Discord, in bug reports. This update makes crafting easier at last, and nearly everything in it is here because players took the time to write down what was in the way. Thank you, all of you who did.



Crafting

  • Autocrafting. It shows everything you can craft from what is in your inventory. Pick one, and it moves the ingredients into your hands and crafts it for you - stacking or splitting items when needed, as long as there is room in your inventory.
  • Item quality is averaged. A crafted item's quality is now the average quality of what went into it.


You still have to watch your calories! Crafting got easier, and the cost moved to your stomach - every craft burns calories. Simpler is not free.

Quick inventory

  • Right-click an item to open a submenu.
  • Ctrl+click moves items between inventories.
  • Both work with gamepad buttons too.
  • The storage crate opens directly from the character view.
  • You can swap your hands.
  • Eating no longer needs an empty second hand.
  • Base building now closes the inventory and crafting screens.


New ways to make things

  • Easy fire kit. Stumps now grow fungus. Fungus, an empty coconut and charcoal make an easy fire kit.
  • Old trunks can be cut into wood with the axe.
  • Axe + wood = stick.


Languages

French, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Ukrainian and Russian were added.

Other changes

  • Getting dirty takes much longer now, and rain washes it off.
  • Fixed animals not dying when hit during their turning animation. They die properly now.


Please review - or update your review

AREAZ has changed a lot in the last few updates - performance, video settings, controls, and now crafting. It is a different experience from the one many store reviews describe. If you reviewed it a while ago, please play the current build and update your review so it matches the game as it is today.

And if you have never left a review, now is a good time. It takes a minute, and reviews are how new players decide whether to look.

Thank you
