Patch v 0.1.8 – Smiler Overhaul — Backrooms: Extractions Steam update #941214

Increased Respawn Delay We’ve dialed back the frenzy by lengthening the time between each Smiler respawn—take a breather (or at least try to). Extended Smiler Event Duration Once the Smiler shows up, it now sticks around a little longer. No more “blink and you missed it” surprises. Line-of-Sight Fix The Smiler can no longer lunge through walls. Reduced Spawn Radius Around Players Smilers now spawn closer to their designated zones instead of popping right in your face (most of the time). Dynamic Smiler Count The number of Smilers per blackout now scales with both player count and chosen difficulty. If you blind the Smiler with your flashlight or lean in for a closer look, it’ll still one-shot you. Some habits die hard!
