Greetings, Ravens!
We’re here with another patch following the release of the Dark Tales Update last week! This one fixes multiple reported bugs and issues by the community, as well as adds a temporary solution for the AFK people blocking players in lobbies. Please read the patch note below for the details.
We are still investigating the other lobby issues (stuck at Starting / Can’t ready). If you are affected by those issues, check this master thread to see how you can help us track them.
:: Hotfix 0.16.02 ::
🐦 = Community additions
New features and improvements
- 🐦 AFK in lobbies: Added an automatic kick for AFK players blocking lobbies for players. Notes: A second iteration of the matchmaking is planned with proper Kick, Ban, Vocal chat, and more features. In the meantime, we have added this automatic kick for AFK players that puts a 30-second countdown in lobbies when players press “Ready”. After 30 seconds, all players who did not press “Ready” will be kicked out of the party. They may start another search afterward. The countdown timer is reset if all players in a lobby press “Unready”.
- Memoirs: Updated the unlocking animation for Memoirs in the Book
- Notifications: Updated the “!” in the Book to make it more visible
