Changelog 41 - Game Version 0.36.7200.32417
Game Polish
● There’s now more leeway for players to move about while a surgeon is healing them. It will not immediately cancel it as a player moves away.
● Improved the surgeon’s healing animation.
● Rockets, round shot and grapeshot assist and kills now contribute towards your leaderboard standing and soldier rank.
● Reduced the damage dealt when standing on a campfire. You’ll be instantly killed should you try to make your way into a larger fire. We’re looking at you good fellows unfairly rising through the ranks with the surgeon class.
● You can now see the server your Steam friend is playing on through your Steam’s friend list.
» You may need to restart Steam to be able to view this new addition.
Server Administration
● Server administrators now have the option to enable a command which restricts game play to first-person view.
» rc set forceFirstPersonMode true or false
Bug Fixes
● Solved an issue with older ATI graphics cards crashing when the spawn button was pressed on. The game will now launch using a different DirectX for the graphics cards players reported issues with.
» For these older cards, the terrain will appear to be white once launched using an older DirectX. We will push a fix towards this in a future update.
» If you’re still experiencing issues with crashes upon clicking the spawn button, please be sure to make this known to us on the #bug-reports channel on our Discord.
