Stability and Building
This experimental update focuses on stability, specifically addressing a crash related to Hypertube junctions in Blueprints. Building efficiency is improved with the restoration of 'zooping' for Basic Shelf Units and fixes for Automated Gates.
UI and Controller Improvements
A significant number of UI bugs have been squashed, including a fix for the 'Remove All' button in multiplayer and various controller-specific layout issues. Input handling for Dynamic Input Switching has also been reorganized for better accessibility.
World and Visuals
Exploration in the Rocky Desert is more viable with the return of a missing Limestone node, while the 'Extreme' weather preset has been tweaked to allow rain to appear earlier in game sessions.
