News & Changelog

• 2026-09-13 New: Kracked PC, Plus a Few Smaller Tweaks

  Big one this time — the vanilla Desktop Computer furniture finally does something. Here's what's new:

  • 
    Kracked PC is live — power a Desktop Computer (main grid or a generator) and switch it on for a full 90s-style desktop: file explorer, notepad, web browser and more. One account works on every computer you use.
  • 
    Floppy disks to find — track down program floppies out in the world, including KR4CK3D W3B, a working in-game "dark web" browser.
  • 
    Richest Factions leaderboard — Fun-Z's now shows the wealthiest factions on the server, alongside the existing Richest Players list.
  • 
    Metal Muncher buff — doorknobs now yield 5x more Brass Fragments.

  Full Kracked PC breakdown in the Field Manual.

• 2026-09-07 New: Gunsmithing Repair Station

  New machine on the server — the Gunsmithing Repair Station, a dedicated bench for patching up damaged firearms:

  • 
    Repair any damaged firearm — feed it 2 Scrap Metal plus a kept Screwdriver and File, no minimum Maintenance skill required.
  • 
    Better mechanics, better repairs — restores +1 condition at low Maintenance, scaling up to +5 at Maintenance 8 and above.
  • 
    Build it yourself — Metal Welding 5, using Small Sheet Metal, Metal Pipes, Welding Rods and a Blow Torch.

  Already updated on Steam Workshop — live on the server after the next restart.

• 2026-09-03 KrackedMachinery Rebalance: AutoPress, Table Saw & Band Saw

  A balance pass on KrackedMachinery — tighter gating on the AutoPress, better yields on the presses, and Table Saw/Band Saw use now actually trains real skills:

  • 
    AutoPress now requires real skill — building one needs Metal Welding 4, Electricity 4, and Mechanics 5. No more free presses.
  • 
    Steel Sheet yield up — presses 1 Steel Ingot into 3 Sheet Metal, up from 1.
  • 
    Copper Sheet yield up — presses 1 Copper Ingot into 3 Copper Sheets, up from 1.
  • 
    Gold Sheet yield way up — presses 1 Gold Bar into 32 Gold Sheets, up from 1.
  • 
    Silver Sheet yield way up — presses 1 Silver Bar into 32 Silver Sheets, up from 1.
  • 
    Lead Sheet yield way up — presses 1 Lead Ingot into 32 Lead Sheets, up from 1.
  • 
    Cigarette pressing reworked — presses now output 5x Cigarette Packs instead of 20x loose Rolled Cigarettes.
  • 
    Table Saw & Band Saw Maintenance now trains you — repairing either machine grants 10 Maintenance XP + 5 Mechanics XP, instead of Woodwork (Table Saw) or Blacksmithing (Band Saw).
  • 
    Band Saw processing now teaches Blacksmithing — cutting and shaping metal at the Band Saw now grants XP split 70% Blacksmithing / 30% Mechanics, instead of 100% Metalworking.

  Already updated on Steam Workshop — live on the server after the next restart.
