📋 About This Mod

WARNING! BEFORE LOADING THE MOD, MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SAVE! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSS OF ANYONE'S GAME PROGRESS!

This is a massive project, developed in secret over the past few years, encompassing many different modifications to MSC by me. The time has finally come to share it with you.

Unfortunately, because the mod is very complex and the game mechanics are what they are, some bugs will undoubtedly occur, and I can't prevent every single one. Serious game-breaking errors can be reported in the bugs tab. Please attach the "output_log.txt" file from the game's main folder. This will help me diagnose the issue.

MOST IMPORTANT CHANGES (AND THERE ARE MANY):

OPTIONS THAT CAN BE DISABLED IN THE SETTINGS ARE MARKED IN GREEN.

ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES:

  • []Improved sun movement in the sky from sunrise to sunset, resulting in dusk falling as early as 10:00 PM.[/]

    []Additional ambient sounds such as birds, crickets, a lawnmower, etc., and the sound of waves heard at the lakeshore.[/]

    []Inaccessible simulated forest areas are now accessible and can be empty or covered with real forests, depending on the settings in the options.[/]

    []The player can eat berries from bushes in the forest or collect them in strawberry boxes.[/]

    []The lake water floats light objects, while heavy ones sink.[/]

    []Walking NPCs will now go to various places (e.g., to the store, to church; they can pee, talk to other NPCs, etc.).[/]

    PLAYER CHANGES:

    []Preventing throwing objects through walls, as well as leaning through walls, etc.[/]

    []The player will no longer be able to lift very heavy objects (e.g., an entire engine), but will only struggle to move them along the ground. The maximum weight that can be lifted can be set in the options.[/]

    []Holding down the LEFT ALT key allows you to open and close doors without dropping the item.[/]

    []Holding a flashlight no longer prevents from picking up items or tightening bolts. Flashlight beam range can be set in options. To put it down, you need to look all the way down and the words "PUT DOWN THE FLASHLIGHT" will appear, then press the "Use" key.[/]

    []Wrench animations when tightening and loosening screws.[/]

    []Visual hints for matching wrench and screw.[/]

    [*]To fall asleep, the player must now crouch on the bed and wait motionless until
