Technical and Character Transfers

Character transfers to self-hosted servers now move and delete the character from the origin server rather than copying, aligning with regular transfers. Server stability has been improved with specific crash fixes and better handling for servers experiencing player influxes after migrations.

Building and Crafting

A significant number of crafting issues have been resolved. High-tier items like the Combat Exoskeleton and several unique items at grade five are now properly craftable. Additionally, building piece snapping for the Water Shipper set has been corrected, and the Duneman Garage Door mesh issue has been addressed.

Combat and UI

Gameplay feel is improved with the dash stamina cost corrected from 40 to 30. The Lasgun Concentrator augment has also been fixed to prevent it from applying its fire rate penalty twice. UI updates include a rename of the 'Custom' server tab to 'Private' and the restoration of the 'Awoo' emote for beta participants.
