List of some known issues with the current version of the game (v.1.2.2):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
Multiplayer:
- Sometimes the game can crash in multiplayer, but hopefully this is rare. We are looking into this issue.
- We're still working on the sync between players, so you may see some lag and cars jittering
- On rare occasions, the game can put you in a single player race instead of taking you from the lobby to the multiplayer event. Again, we're looking into this
- The scoreboard is not toggle-able if you retire/DNF
- You cannot switch between cars while spectating, but will be able to soon Much more functionality coming for multiplayer! Other:
- Vehicle physics can still be buggy at times, causing your car to bounce unexpectedly, catch on geometry or spend too much time in the air. We've been aware of these types of issue for a while and have constantly been improving physics as we go. This version of the game is the most stable it's ever been and will only get better
- The menus only support mouse navigation right now. Gamepad support will be coming as soon as possible.
- Resetting on more complex tracks like Skytrack and Acrophobia can result in you getting stuck in a reset loop. Just reset a couple times and you'll be put back on the track. This is a temporary solution until reset code is improved
- Some users are reporting that pausing the game after finishing an event gets rid of mouse navigation
- EMP is being revamped and improved to be less frustrating, so don't worry, it will be less annoying ;)
- Explodable barrels now make a sound when run into. It's currently buggy and can get cut off, but will be fixed soon
- The Carkour map "Jobsite" has been removed until we determine why it won't load
- Foliage has been removed from Yuri Industrial because of an issue in UE4 where using foliage corrupts the map file. Hopefully we'll be able to use the foliage tool again later in time

List of changes/additions in this patch (v.1.2.2):
-------------------------------------------------------
- LIDDO5 ISLANDS track is back! Completely overhauled with new areas like a ship wreck and vertical hairpin, plus much improved visuals
- NEW Pickup: The RAM RAIDER. This power-up triggers strong energy pulses that emit from your car and push opponents to the side, while giving you a slight speed boost!
- NEW vehicle ability: LAUNCH. Hold and release "L" on keyboard or "Y" on gamepad to launch your car into the air. Longer you hold, the more you launch. This ability is great for avoiding mines, jumping over cars, dodging obstacles and accessing surfaces above you!
