Livestock Update
“This month's update brings a major refresh to farming with the introduction of new Livestock animals, critters, and swimmers. Plus, fresh food recipes, the new Biofuel Generator, an overhaul to Sandbag Barricades, and new Powergrid Lootrooms to plunder. And all the usual bug fixes, improvements, and QoL changes!” — Facepunch
