What we’re actively working on:

  • Memory leaks
  • Linux dedicated Lobby servers crashing
  • Casino
  • Inventory showing items in your condo while in lobby
  • Condo / Lobby door connections
  • Virus weapons sometimes appear out of the hands of other players
  • Theater vote skip
  • Key binding
  • Not being able to shoot in some areas (mainly doorways) in Virus

Notes:
Key binding is still in progress, but will require us to upgrade our Unreal Engine version to 4.11.
This upgrade will take us a bit of time. We understand how important this is and we are working quickly to get it finished and in your hands.

TNT in Virus will not play its explosion effects in this patch as we are looking into the crashes related to it.

There is an issue with canvases resetting when you scale them which is being address very soon.

Thank you so much. Ive been waiting for this one.

Altitude is my favorite mini golf map. It’s good to see improvements like that :smile:

So what did you decide on for preventing players to farm melons in singleplayer. Is there a minimum amount of players required or will you just leave it as it is right now.
Also please calculate ballrace physics on each client to reduce lag. Please. And you don’t have to synchronize every moving object’s position across the network.

Additionally are there any plans for implementing dedicated game mode server? Maybe an idling server of some sort that loads a gamemode “on demand”?

P.S. thank you for your work guys. keep it up!

Awesome.

My only concern; the melon limit. I know there is extreme concern for the farming of units through BR but, shouldn’t the cap for the bonus stage be upped (to 40 perhaps?) or removed in bonus? It kinda makes getting more of the melons in that particular stage section pretty much useless.

Other than that, sweet fixes all round. :smiley:

Singleplayer farming has been completely removed, you only get the 25 payout now for playing.

Lack of singleplayer payouts is being reverted in today/tomorrow’s patch. Mac stated this on the comment section for the steam post of 0.1.0.6.
