I’ve just started with this game. Enjoying it very much. Anyway, I was out bear hunting. As it got close, I wielded my FN FAL which has a suppressor, an adjustable stock, a rifle scope and a masterkey shotgun attached. As the Bear closed, I switched to the masterkey using the alternate fire button. Then I fired it and the game closed. Thankfully, I’d saved fairly recently. I’ve tried it three more times and it closes each time. I’m using version 0.8. Cheers dev folk.
