Prisoners,
We're closing off the week with a small hotfix that will iron out some of the smaller issues that popped up with the latest update. Read more below:

UI & Interaction
- Fixed a bug where chat messages appeared at the bottom of the screen instead of below the chat box.
- Fixed a bug where the Sit interaction prompt did not appear when looking at seats on one side of the train, even though players could still sit in them.
Vehicles & Server Settings
- Fixed a bug where vehicles continued taking damage from collisions with other vehicles and environmental objects even when the corresponding zone settings were set to Block.
Level Design
- Fixed a bug where plants in the Apex Research Facility had incorrect collision, causing bears to climb over them and characters to appear partially above the ground when standing inside them.
- Fixed a bug where invisible collision inside the Zelena Milja disco prevented characters from shooting.
Visuals & Animations
- Fixed a bug where gas pumps did not cast visible shadows under the same lighting conditions as nearby objects.
- Fixed a bug where the flame clipped out of the Gas Lantern in first-person view when using higher FOV settings.
Quests
- Fixed a bug where quests disappeared from the journal immediately after being accepted at the General Goods Trader.
Base Building
- Fixed multiple smaller issues with the foliage under base building elements.
