This smaller update adds new dedicated server options and admin tools, fixes some gadget exploits, and brings some balancing changes to cop and robber classes.
Server admins can now set a "NoTeamDamage" value in their server config to prevent any team damage by bullets and can add themselves as server admin by setting the "ServerOwnerID" to their SteamID64. After doing so, they can instantly kick players from their server without having to go through the voting process.
Previously, cops could place some gadgets in front of a character to see how they would react, the AI instantly avoided it, while robber players understandably had some delay in their reaction, leading to them being killed by the cops. A new "AI Obstacle Reaction Time" system now adds some latency to the NPCs reaction time to those obstacles, and should prevent robbers getting killed from this trick.
The Sheriff was one of the weaker cop classes, which is why she now has a "Rope Launcher" as a secondary weapon, allowing her to cuff suspects over larger distances! Multiple other smaller exploit fixes and balancing changes have been implemented, you can take a look at them in the full changelog below!
