WolfQuest Anniversary Edition Patch 1.1.0 Notes – June 14, 2023
BIG CHANGE:
We have converted all animal AI to our new, improved AI system. In most cases, this should not change animal AI or behaviors, so please report any new issues that you notice.
NEW:

- Several territory configurations to choose from when starting new game in Amethyst, Slough Creek, and Lost River (DLC).

- In Wolf Customization: Primary and Secondary howls are now combined into one panel, so you can choose any howl for either type. There are also 22 new howls added. (Controller support for howl selection coming tomorrow.)
- Pronghorns now roam the grasslands of each map. They are very fast and generally extremely hard to catch, except for summertime fawns: in June, newborn fawns hide in the grass like elk and mule deer, while later in the summer they are ambulatory but easier to catch than adults are.
