Patch 0.11.35
Added working RV vehicle.
Vehicles no longer sink in to the ground a fuel stations.
Vehicles can now catch fire and blow up even if they weren't already running.
Fixed errors being caused by shooting red bricks.
Vehicles now take less damage when impacting objects (Including zombies).
Improved zombie vehicle collision calculations so that there's less chance their rag dolls get caught on vehicle.
Zombies now get cleaned up faster when killed by a vehicle.
Improved performance by reducing zombie movement calculations in the distance and stopping their animations.
Improved performance by creating LOD's for vehicles.
Removed some physics calculations for Zombies that were not needed. This should improve performance when near lots of zombies.

Moving away from fire no longer incorrectly notifies of interaction canceled.
Tweaked loot balance. Reduced the amount of guns slightly. Increase the chances of finding custom location based loot. Warehouses now also have (Electrical/car parts) loot.
Fixed issue which could on rare occasion cause zombies to become invincible.
Player no longer receive damage when switching seats while vehicle is moving.
Passengers no longer receive damage when driver exits vehicle when moving.
Fixed issue where vehicles could slowly roll away from their server instances which would mean players could no longer enter.
Tweaks to zombie loading distances to improve overall performance.

Hold interact functionality made quicker for all interactions.
Added functionality for adding strength to existing lock using an equipped screw driver and screws.

Warehouses now have improved design and location specific loot.
New inputs helper UI added during loading screens.
New loading screen images added in preparation for early access.

Fixed structures that were not working with new functionality introduced in 0.11.32 for preventing zombie spawns in structures that are fully fortified.
Thanks much for the continued support. We’ll keep smoothing out this .11 build and get it into proper shape for a solid alpha build. We couldn’t do it without the continued dedication of backers willing to help test for issues and suggest fixes and improvements.
