The end-of-match showcase no longer makes you pick just one. Every card is its own toggle — like everything you thought was good, change your mind, untoggle. If three people built something great, all three can hear about it.

The build menu can't get stuck any more

Fixed the hollow build menu from the last playtest: when the round reset took your body mid-build, the panel it left behind couldn't be closed, and F just opened another panel behind it. Both panels now close properly whenever your body changes, and a seeker caught mid-forge gets their forge back straight away.
Getting caught while building no longer freezes you in a build pose. You're released cleanly into spectating instead of dying stuck mid-crouch.

Heads up

No update required to play together this time — this build talks to the previous one, so you won't get locked out of your friends' lobbies while people update.
Known issue: hosts setting custom match rules may see them revert to the mode's defaults after the first round. We're hunting it — this build adds the logging that will catch it, so if it happens to you, send us your log file (F11). That's what will let us fix it.

Keep the reports coming — F11 plus your log file is still the fastest way to get something fixed.

An out-of-date client cannot join. This one matters more than usual: a mismatched player's lowered body would be treated as standing by the server while they believed they were hidden, so shots would land where neither player expected.
