The online multiplayer survival game SCUM released a small Hotfix patch a couple of days ago. The patch is mostly filled with several bug fixes, but some quality of life changes have been made as well. Before we get to the highlights, there is one thing that you should do. The developers at Gamepires have highly recommended that players go to the SCUM Appdata folder and delete the Saved folder. It should resolve multiple issues that some players have encountered.
The hotfix patch corrected animal movement in single-player and also fixed the bug where several traps wouldn't be triggered by prisoners. Animations for several weapons have been improved and the lockpicking disabled bug is now resolved. The can opener will not cause crashes anymore and RPK damage output has been resolved. The update also reduced the number of cargo drops in a match.
You can read all the changes made in the patch below or on the official site.
