Apocalypse

Happy New Year!

This is a preview, so what is detailed here in this log may be subject to change, removal or even additions.

Weapon Balance Changes

Minor recoil changes for the AR-15/18 Platform Rifles.

Default Uzi clip size increased from 20 to 25.

Additions

Mutant Mobs (only the Mutant Zombie for obvious reasons) by Fusz is now in the modpack. The Mutant Zombie is an incredibly rare and powerful zombie, once downed you'll have to burn his corpse with a Flint and Steel, or down him 3 more times. Mutant Zombies may witness an increase in spawn rate in the nearby future.

The Mutant Zombie, with the generous permission of Tissou, has a more realistic texture.

The Hordes by smileycorp. On certain nights your base will be swarmed by zombies, and zombies have a chance to infect and slowly kill you. Infections can only be cleared out by Golden Apples, Spelunkie, Green Soylent, and Glow Berry Juice.

A Tutorial World preview, which is still in the making.

Villagers now make their return, but don't hold the hopes high as villages are set to return back to being a stronghold for Insurgents. On very rare occasions a villager will spawn in or near your base.

Villagers will now appear more realistic with the addition of Human Era by BetaTesterNugget.

Horses are set to play a more major role via the additions of AstikorCart Redux, Horse Stonks, and Horseman. Horse breeding will be much stronger, and Carts intended for carrying items or animals. (This is partially done because addons relating to creating vehicles with Creates conflicted with others in the modpack, I'll be working on to see what's causing the issue.)

A new copper tool mod by Exline will replace Pure Copper Tools, as the original provided significantly powerful oxidized copper tools that didn't match with the intended progression or the feel of the modpack.

Spawn Rate Changes

An overhauled spawning system intended to improve performance, while retaining the challenges of travelling.

Loot Changes

Insurgents will now drop Emeralds upon being killed.

Starting kits (except the Hardcore kit) will provide 5 Golden Apples, due to the inclusion of The Hordes and its infection feature.

Patches

For the past several updates I've forgotten to include the script.zs file intended to change the crafting recipes. This is a massive oversight and I apologize for any inconveniences.
