Patch Notes 1.98

Jun 27

Hello Survivors! This patch includes two more new features as well as bug fixes and improvements for the Underwater Labs, maps, Submarines, and more.

TUGBOATS - A new vehicle that you can place items on, like barbecues, chests, and furnaces! The Tugboat behaves much like the Rowboat or RHIB, but they cannot be purchased from the Fishing Village and must be acquired from the Harbors.
PINGS - Equip your Binoculars and add up to 5 in-game markers that your whole team can see (if you are the team leader). These markers will also appear on your compass!
