BETA 4
ADMIN SETTINGS!! Sound fix-keymapping fixes-admin menu bottom right while inventory open.

Accessing the Menu
Open your Inventory by pressing I.
Look at the bottom right corner of the inventory screen.
Click the Admin Settings button to open the configuration window.

New Key Mapping Options
You can now customize your controls directly in the menu. This is especially helpful for streamlining frequent tasks:
Food Delivery: Assign a specific key to handle deliveries without diving into sub-menus.
Inventory Access: Rebind the default “I” key if you prefer a different layout.

Survival & Difficulty Balancing
The update gives you granular control over how punishing the game feels:

Depletion Rates: Manually adjust how fast your character gets hungry or thirsty
Difficulty Presets: Choose from pre-made configurations if you don’t want to tweak individual sliders.

The Time Scale Safety Net
This is the “anti-frustration” feature. Previously, fast-forwarding time often meant your character would starve or dehydrate before you could react.

Time Scale Toggle: You can now turn this On or Off.
The Cap: When active, your depletion rates are capped at x15.

Why it matters: Even if you are running the game world at x360 speed, your character’s vitals won’t plummet instantly, giving you a safety buffer while skipping time.
