Dog Companion Material Deposit:
We added a highly requested quality-of-life feature: when you deposit resources into your vehicle and your trusty companion is nearby, they will automatically deposit the contents of their pouch into the vehicle as well. This means you no longer have to remove materials from their pouch one by one just to store them.
Full control over vehicle lights:
We’ve heard that many of you want to be able to turn off your vehicle lights at night. Good news! You can now fully control your vehicle’s lights and turn them on or off whenever you want!
By default, the lights automatically turn on at dusk once per day, but you can disable this in the settings if you prefer full manual control.
Storage sorting:
By popular request: We added sorting functionality to the vehicle (and dog companion) storage. You can now:
Sort alphabetically
Sort by stack size
Show all food first
