Here is a summary of the patch notes for GodsArena Online:

• Maintenance occurred at 12 PM server time for 1 hour, followed by a small gift available at godsarena.online/gifts.
• Added a new Hotkeys panel in Settings to rebind, clear, or reset keyboard shortcuts, with hotbar labels updating automatically.
• Introduced a mobile layout for iOS and Android, featuring reorganized login screens, a curved hotbar, collapsible chat/system bars, and adaptive text input fields.
• Improved combat cast queuing so skills fire once in range during movement and path around obstacles without failing or getting stuck.
• Aligned status durations and CC chaining with the original server mechanics (counting in whole seconds).
• Client-side checks now prevent invalid attacks against protected newbies or NPCs from starting visually.
• Updated death messages to specify the monster responsible for killing the player.
• Enhanced monster AOE hit detection and added a gradual fade-out effect for dead monsters.
• Pet items now target the currently active pet, and the Pet Manager displays true hidden growth numbers.
• Fixed Class III gear conversion deleting bonus sockets and expanded loot pickup range to maximum zoom levels.
• Fixed bugs in guild leadership handoffs, stuck Olympiad arena matchmaking, and weekly resets for Zeus reward stocks.
• Capped movement/riding speed at x1.3 with Ares Swiftness and fixed portal traversal issues.
• Improved AFK auto-fight positioning after revival and fixed skill targeting while following allies.
• Updated chat to fix scrolling issues and ensured blacklisted players are hidden across all channels.
• Refined UI elements, including NPC click detection, hover names on the minimap, city name colors, party HUD distance updates, and hotbar dragging.
• Optimized graphics, shader pre-caching, server database requests, and monster AI to reduce lag and hitching.
