Wayward ’s latest beta update is here. Version 2.11.2 has brought several fixes and improvements to the game.
Players gain the ability to see "Efficacy" after getting 20% in a crafting skill. With this, players can know how effective they are in crafting and let them make better quality items. Many factors affect quality like item quality and item tier.
With this update, the developers have also fixed an issue where players were unable to unpause the game when a new player was joining a game. This feature was not intended and has been fixed in the latest update.
