This update adds some initial stats collection and reporting on dedicated servers. We are collecting basic stats data to organize everything on the website and will display some of these stats in the next update once everything is verified. No stats collected at this preset time will actually count and will only be used for debugging purposes. We will reset stats and display some basic stats on the main menu in the next update.
The update also includes automatic clan tag detection and integration. This is a temporary implementation until clan tags are actually registered via the automated ladder system on our website. But for now any properly formatted clan tag with brackets will be automatically detected in your player name. This update standardizes the fonts in the HUD to support more Unicode characters for areas such as the kill feed, chat box, or player name in the bottom-left corner. Any emoji characters will now display the corresponding stencil font as the player names under the in-game diamonds did in the previous update. This allows clan tags to be properly separated from player names and universally colored. It also reduces spam in the kill feed and chat box due to clan tags. This update addresses exploits with player names using blank characters, and should now prevent any of these special characters from being used.
Also worth noting is that some dedicated server logic has been improved for the TaskForceTV service. Plus a more advanced version comparison was implemented for dedicated servers showing the "server out of date" message. Finally a critical issue was corrected with corrupted server data due to the TaskForceTV service connecting to a server.
