This patch fixes a couple of issues recently reported by the community.
'COLLATERAL' CAMPAIGN CHANGES
- polish localization fixes
- fixed a spot where the player could get stuck on Gang Compound
'INTRAVENOUS' (IV1 REMASTER) CAMPAIGN CHANGES
- fixed a misplaced toilet paper roll decor object on Apartment Complex
- fixed an incorrectly-setup patrol route on Apartment Complex
BASE GAME CHANGES
- the "enemies killed" stat will now influence the stealth rating on the level finish screen only if the enemy has at some point seen the player, or was alert of their presence (this change is not retroactive and requires playing through a given level again for the changes to take effect)
- fixed the suspicion track playing in place of the idle track in some cases after dying & resetting to last save
- fixed player animations not returning correctly after firing the Tazer
- fixed glass walls not returning back to a single "wall" instance, resulting in bugs such as EG glass being fragmented (even though it is singular) and having to use multiple EMP charges to change the state of the entire glass block

This release candidate might be the last before release.
It features a couple of minor fixes and some more modder-requested features with regards to weapons.
'COLLATERAL' CAMPAIGN CHANGES
- russian localization updates
BASE GAME CHANGES
- fixed the noise/mobility display not updating when opening the loadout menu with nothing but armor equipped
MODDING CHANGES
- fixed incorrect indexing of weapon mod categories when game mods add extra weapon mods, which could cause various problems with weapon mod tracking, and incorrect highlighting of mod categories when attempting to install a weapon mod that depends on the presence of other weapon mods
- added weapons:addModConflicts(weaponID, modID, conflicts) and weapons:addModRequirements(weaponID, modID, requirements):
* 'conflicts' and 'requirements' can be either a string or a table containing strings (mod IDs that are conflicting or required)
* attempting to add a mod to a weapon that is not registered will not cause a crash
* skips adding duplicate weapon mods
* weapon datas feature the same method, which do all the heavy lifting, with the same argument order minus the requirement for weaponID as the first argument
Update 1.4.0 is currently in open BETA and can be accessed by anyone.
To opt-in this, right-click on Intravenous 2 in your Steam library, click on "Properties...", then switch to the "Betas" tab, and select the "version140" BETA.

RC10.1 CHANGES

MODDING CHANGES
- the weapons:addModToWeapon(weaponID, headerID, modData) spec has been changed to weapons:addModToWeapon(weaponID, headerID, modData, inFrontOfModID):
* can add singular weapon mods via weapons:addModToWeapon("someWeapon", "sights", "someMod")
* can add multiple weapon mods via weapons:addModToWeapon("someWeapon", "sights", {"someMod", "otherMod", "anotherMod"})
* inFrontOfModID is optional; if it is a string, the mod will be inserted in front of the given mod ID; if it is a number, it will be inserted at that position in the list, or at the end of the list (depending on which is true)
* the method will create a new mod header (category) if the provided headerID is not available on the weapon, and insert the weapon mod in that header
* modders do not need to call any extra methods such as :setupModCategoryMap, the game will take care of the rest
* attempting to add a mod to a weapon that is not registered will not cause a crash
* skips adding duplicate weapon mods
* returns true on success, false on failure, and the failure reason as 2nd argument
* weapon datas feature the same method, which do all the heavy lifting, with the same argument order minus the requirement for weaponID as the first argument
- added method to easily set weapon mod icons for new/existing weapon mods - weapons:setModIcons(weaponID, modID, iconActive, iconHover, iconIdle, iconAlign):
* all three icons must be provided to set the icons for the given mod to be successfully set
* returns true on success, false on failure, and the failure reason as 2nd argument
* weapon datas feature the same method , which do all the heavy lifting, with the same argument order minus the requirement for weaponID as the first argument
Update 1.4.0 is currently in open BETA and can be accessed by anyone.
