V3.4.0 is officially Stable. What started as Experimental — search and filters in the backpack plus drone recovery at traders — now ships on Default Public. Less digging mid-horde, and a stuck drone can be recovered at a trader.
Context: Stable replaces V3.3.0 as the default update. Dedicated servers and clients must share the same build — put servers on Default Public or players will not connect. Back up your save and mods first.
Note: TFP is still testing a fix for locked inventory slots that may reset after you close the inventory. More known issues are listed below — including campfire consume and some Mac language edge cases.
Inventory search — what matters
- Search bar in the backpack and containers: type an item name and find it quickly.
- Category filters: narrow the inventory by category — less scrolling under pressure.
- UI lives in the in-game windows (filters and text search on larger grids).
Recover drones at traders
- If your drone is stuck or missing, open the trader dialog for drone commands and use recover.
- Also fixed: drones no longer keep circling the player after being placed.
Known issues (per patch notes)
- Locked slots may reset after closing the inventory — fix under test per TFP
- Possible NRE when generating chunk decorations (new games only)
- Euthanizer perk triggers but does not work
- Item sell number might not display correctly
- Unable to consume items from the Campfire — transfer them to the backpack first
- Mac: unable to join P2P or a server when the client language is French
- Mac: changing Language options in macOS can freeze the game (exception / force quit)
Quick notes for players
- Cosmetic packs Night Stalker Vol. 4, Steroids, Chicken Nuggets, and the completed Fireman’s Almanac set are updated for the larger backpack capacity.
- Multiplayer: “boosted” icon only on actually boosted items; 10th hotbar slot sellable again.
- macOS launches again with Easy Anti-Cheat enabled.
- Own server: put the server and every player on Stable V3.4.0 and back up the world first — anyone still on V3.3.0 will not join an updated server.
Less digging through packs — welcome to Stable V3.4.0.
