Key highlights include an expansion of the Hyland Manor's workforce and the introduction of a quality bonus for products. A significant portion of the update addresses "non-host" issues, ensuring that clients in multiplayer sessions see the same world state as the host regarding gates, RVs, and NPC combat behavior.
Property & Management
Players can now scale their operations further at Hyland Manor with increased staff capacity. Additionally, the warehouse property has received functional upgrades like water taps and faster gate movement.
NPC & Combat Refinements
NPC behavior has been tuned across the board, affecting how they perceive players, their accuracy with ranged weapons, and how they engage in pursuit. Several fixes also ensure that ragdoll physics and flinch animations respond more realistically during combat.
Multiplayer Stability
This update resolves numerous desync issues where non-host players were not seeing the same world state as the host, particularly regarding destroyed vehicles, police checkpoints, and NPC sighting events.
