Update summary video

Simple handmade sight

First teased last week, the new simple handmade site has been implemented. Costing high quality metal, this weapon attachment allows you to aim at your foe slightly better than iron sights. Here are some details and pictures…

Cost
6 high quality metal

Crafting time
60 seconds

Searchlight added!

Helk has just added the searchlight item. It runs off low grade (1 low grade spent every 20 seconds), is bright as fuck, and can be pointed around by holding E and selecting 'Use.' Here are some details:

Cost
1000 wood
500 frags

Crafting time
60 seconds
