This update aims to tackle some of the most requested features from the community.
The Testing Grounds is a new space accessible from any rest area where you can try out your Granvir build. Within the Testing Grounds you can configure your controls, try out weapons and fire without having or expending ammunition. Let us know what features you'd like to see added to the Testing Ground in future updates.
On top of the Testing Grounds, multiplayer campaigns can now be loaded with more players than the original save had. New players will receive the starting parts and items of their selected class. Remember that campaigns are saved at the start of every rest so you can safely abandon a campaign to pick up a new player after each mission.
More QoL is on its way in the next regular update along with another set of fixes. If you continue to experience multiplayer desync on this version, please let me know so I can look for additional fixes.
