People! Update 0.2421 Ai Infected A new AI mechanic has been added to the game: damage-based retreat reaction for infected NPCs. Infected no longer always keep rushing straight at the player after taking serious damage. If an NPC receives a strong enough hit, it can instinctively retreat: turn around, sprint away from the threat, create distance, and then return to combat. Fixes Fixed an issue where kick and knife attacks did not work while Adrenaline Surge was active. Fixed an issue where rolling with Space interrupted Adrenaline Surge and returned the game to normal speed. Adrenaline Surge now works correctly as an overlay mode: you can use knife attacks, kicks, and rolls while time is slowed. Adrenaline continues to gain and drain correctly during these actions.
