Ahoy! Time for yet another update. This update focusses mainly on some Quality of Life improvements and requests we've received from the community. Without further ado, here are the full patch notes:
Server browser:
- You can now see how many available crew slots there are on a game that is in progress
- You can now see if a server is in spawn selection (when it is, you can't join the server anymore to avoid being kicked back to the main menu)
Main menu:
- Chat messages in the lobby chat now play the same sound as chat messages in-game
Gameplay changes:
- In progress matches now allow up to 20 players to join (16 players during pre-game to limit max ship amount for performance reasons for now)
- Destroyed ship containers now float above the front of the sinking ship instead of the center (so they no longer appear inside the smoke)
- Melee hits now also block sprinting for 1 second on the target
Brigantine changes:
- Crows nest has been redesigned to be a platform (similar to the junk ship)
- Small crows nest platform added to front mast
- Bowsprit angle lowered a bit
- Stern has been rounded a bit more and rudder has been lowered
- Steering wheel deck is a little bit longer now
- Upper staircase moved back a bit (closer to the steering wheel)
- Steering wheel deck railings shortened a bit
- Small railing next to the steering wheel (above lower staircase) removed
Junk ship changes:
- Interior decoration added
Bug fixes:
- Fixed a flaw that allowed faster movement when moving sideways
- Fixed a bug that sometimes caused water (high waves) to be briefly visible inside the Junk Ship's hull
- Ship, Play and Pirate buttons in the main menu are no longer keyboard focusable so they won't interfere with party chat anymore when pressing enter
- Chest on Kraken Keep spawning inside a rock has been removed
- Defeated teams are no longer included in the open slots count
