Short summary

Published on July 30, 2026, hotfix 1.3.2.2 follows the July Update with practical fixes for stability, exploits, hunting progression, boats, and item behavior.

What changed

  • Fixed client crashes related to crafting near the edge of player vicinity range and while driving vehicles.
  • Improved server crash reporting by addressing cases where crash reports were not generated.
  • Closed an exploit that allowed indefinite Keycard farming from police stations, affecting the server global supply.
  • Adjusted Master Hunter quest access so it no longer requires completing a regular Hunter trader quest first.
  • Fixed Master Hunter trader item availability and several hunting-related audio and text issues.

What it means for players

  • Players should see fewer disruptive crashes during crafting and vehicle use.
  • Police station Keycard farming should no longer drain the global Keycard supply through an exploit.
  • Master Hunter content should be easier to access and more consistent at the trader.
  • Boat users may experience more natural behavior with the Kinglet Mariner, Barba, and Dinghy after fixes to bouncing, sinking, steering, and rowing issues.
  • Several item and character visual or inventory inconsistencies have been corrected, including Keyhole Shirt colors and Grilled Rabbit Leg inventory size.

Impact on SCUM.SK

For community servers, the Keycard exploit fix is the most relevant point because it protects the shared global supply from abuse. The article also mentions server crash report fixes, but it does not announce any direct server configuration changes.
