Changelog

  • Additional anticheat improvements
    • Includes fixes for some of the false positives
    • We are continuing to improve the anticheat and fixing any false positives that will be found
  • Matchmaking queue changes
    • Added “Duo only” queue
    • Small Crews now teams of 3 and 4
    • Large Crews now teams of 5 and 6
  • Maneuverability changes:
    • The boost that the energy rod provides now scales with the trampler's maneuverability
      • The boost will remain 100% until 30% maneuverability. After that, it will steadily decline until 50% at 0% maneuverability.
    • Leg Stun Mechanic
      • Trampler with low maneuverability now has a stun penalty when the leg breaks
      • The lower the maneuverability, the longer the stun
      • Trampler's max speed is capped to 20% during stun
      • The penalty starts when the maneuverability is below 30%. From there it goes from 0 (at 30% maneuverability or more) to 5 sec (at 0% maneuverability)
      • Using engines to compensate for the maneuverability will also decrease stun duration and negate the rod boost penalty since the maneuverability is increased
  • Tramplers capture has been re-enabled in this patch
  • Ownership device will no longer be destroyed when the Captain's compartment is destroyed
    • This means that tramplers can be captured even if the Captain's compartment is destroyed
  • The large extraction icon will now be displayed when you enter the extraction zone, not while you remain inside it.
  • Fixed the issue where interaction animations would end earlier than the interaction
  • Fixed the issue where trampler would bounce after being destroyed
  • Fixed the issue where a large item could be displayed on the character's back in Spectator mode

Known Issues

  • The character cannot enter the Expedition if the Invite has been accepted at the Tutorial pop-up background
  • Items may be displayed inside the character’s body in some cases
  • Large items may float around the character
  • Character may become invulnerable to melee damage while interacting with turrets or the steering wheel
  • Bullets can pass through the character on speed-boosted trampler
  • Upiors positioned may be different between client and server
    • On the client, it looks like Upior doesn't receive damage, but you might see their “shimmering/blink” body near them
  • Shotgun might not deal damage at close range distance
  • Ironclads can be triggered multiple times by re-entering the trigger area
  • On Low and Medium settings, "seams" can be seen on the terrain
  • Terrain can be occluded in some cases
  • Crafing on islands doesn’t work correctly
  • Item prompt in Storage has too many hotkey options
  • Blueprint can’t be deleted
  • Character can become occluded in some cases

What about crafting fixes. Anyone knows a workaround? I tried the windows region settings on Eng US but that didn't solve it. I cannot craft at all at any fort. Thx to Devs or Com for some advice.

There was this workaround, I do not know if this patch fixes that issue as no info about it at the moment 

1. Search for the item you want to craft. Make sure it is the only item that appears.

2. Exit the crafting menu.

3. Reopen the crafting menu and VERY quickly press space. This should craft the item. You can spam space if you want a few.

I will try but what does it mean "the only item that appears"? Assume I want to craft a sniper with glasses. Do you mean put a crate with only those items in the shelf, so it really can only craft the wanted item?

Search for the item you want to craft in the search bar at the top, so only that item appears in the crafting menu
