Riolloween Event:

Although it's not really a brazilian thing to celebrate Halloween, we're doing a small Halloween event and adding some stuff! Apologies if the halloween decorations in locations aren't too prevalent, we lost progress on decorating the cities like twice prior to publishing this update lol

* Temporarily replaced Rio lighting with a more moody/halloween-ish look.
* Temporarily made it so only Rio heavy storms and thick fog weather events take place.
** Heatwave and normal rain are currently disabled!
* Added a special NPC to Brocoió Island; 'Crow' will give you some repeatable quests during the event.
* Some NPCs are also wearing halloween costumes!
* Added Pumpkins and Kabocha Squashes, and respective slices and seeds
* Added wearable and placeable carved pumpkins, and Jack-O-Lanterns.
* Added a despicable Rubber Ducky variant that hates you with all it's plastic-y heart.
* Added a candy bag as a quest reward for 'Crow', and Candy Bowls in cities that give you candy when interacted with.
* Added some additional candies: Rapadura, Pralinê, Chocolate soccer balls, Chocolate coins and a "mysterious candy"
* Added a special new air vehicle to the Galeão Airport spawns. Will not spawn again after the event is done.
* Added Halloween overrides to Rio's materials, foliage and resources.
** Carioca FM and Dam buildings also get special halloween variants.
* Added Halloween decorations to some locations.
* Made civilian zombies wear jack-o-lanterns.

Added:

* Added a 'Shortmag' Shotgun (ID 35274), uses 12 gauge shells. Spawns in Southern Front / Ranger spawns.
* Added a Military Plane Crash between Petrópolis and the Dam.
* Added a boat spawn in the Dam.
* Added a helicopter crash near São Gonçalo.
* Added a cave that was in the original map, south of Petrópolis.
* Added a metal node with higher chances for Rare Metals. Rarely found in some caves.

Changes:

* Renamed the map to just "Rio de Janeiro". This is the definitive edition!
* Slighty furnished the car shop in Governador Island.
* Buffed vehicle speeds, so they at least average on 60km/h for the most part.
** Initially the slower vehicles were intended as such in cases such as older vehicles being worse. We understand this isn't fun however, so they are a bit faster now at the very least.
* Carnaval floats are a bit faster and have proper tire effects now.
* Remodelled Dead Maples to better match the map's art style.
* Several objects should be compatible with the new "Load Clutter" option.
* Moved some objects to the "Small" Category, such as Manholes.
* Removed some trees.

Fixed:

* Cooking a Lavish Meal with a Chef's Cookbook whilest having an Encyclopedia in-inventory will no longer turn the Cookbook into an Encyclopedia.
* Converting a Small Red Spotlight into a Small Pink Spotlight no longer converts a Red Spotlight in place of the small one.
* Bleaching a Yellow Hammock no longer results in a Yellow Hammock, nor does it require a Red Hammock instead of a Yellow one.
* Miscellaneous condition errors.
* Aiport Tower and Military Hangars not casting shadows.

This is a relatively small patch, but we wanted to provide a brief update on Rio’s development; We’ve taken a few months away from the project due to burnout. While we don’t intend to stop updating the map completely, it has admittedly been difficult to regain momentum. We're also already working on new map projects for Unturned, as well as other non-Unturned projects. That said, we still plan to release a part two update for the NPC questline in the future. In the meantime, we hope you continue to enjoy the map!
