The Indie Stone announced the release of the 42.13.1 Beta Hotfix for Project Zomboid today via their Discord and Website. You can shamble your way on over to their website for a look at the official patch message, here.
I have to take the time to mention that the videos and images in Steam do not do this little piece of work justice. (Or at least last I looked at them, that was the case.). Project Zomboid has an incredible amount of depth and challenge.
Several of our group has walked our way through (and drove) the zombie apocalypse that is Project Zomboid on numerous occasions. It is always such a great adventure!
Scavenge well, and stay safe out there, Survivors!
