This update begins the addition of new tier 1 parts. Tier 1 has the fewest number of parts and feels even slimmer when you start each run with a handful of them. This wave focuses on the low hanging fruits introducing tier 1 variants of existing parts. Future part waves will introduce new part types like a grappling pistol.
On top of the new parts, two causes of mulitplayer desync have been found and fixed. These fixes would be almost impossible to find without the help of everyone sharing their log files. If you continue to experience desync issues, please let me know. Many different things can cause desync so it is difficult to know if it is entirely fixed.
