Weekly Update #20 (v0.1.20.3) - Tons of Fixes & Improvements

Hello everyone,

This week’s update brings a lot of new fixes and improvements. Sorry for not releasing it during the weekend, but sometimes we encounter unexpected issues, and we don’t want to release a build without properly fixing them.

Please make sure you are running version v0.1.20.3.

Stutter Fix (not confirmed yet)

We saw reports on Steam Discussions and Discord that since v0.1.19, the game was stuttering from time to time during races.

We believe we have found the issue that was causing this during races and other modes.
(To our knowledge, Time Trials should not have any freezes during gameplay.)

We are not 100% sure that this fixes the issue for everyone, so if you had this problem before, please let us know in the comments.
Make sure you are using v0.1.20.3 when testing.

Mods

• Fixed hot reload 1-second delay

• Fixed config generation stuck bug

Presets

• Fixed vanilla version of new presets not being randomized

• Added AI preset syncing for online

  • From now on, everyone in the lobby will see the same AI presets

  • Notice: If you don’t have the required mods, the game will show the vanilla preset

  • Vanilla versions of presets may still show the same character for other players if they were created before this fix (unless you already customized them yourself)

  • This has now been fixed for new presets, but existing vanilla presets must be manually edited if you want to correct them

• Fixed incorrect preset trail display and rendering on characters without trails

Screenshot Feature

• Heavily optimized

• Should no longer crash, even on low-end devices

Map Loading Error Dialog

Gameplay-Framerate-Dependent Fixes

• Fixed bounce ground height being inconsistent at different framerates

• Fixed continuous boost ground stacking incorrectly
  (was giving ~15% more speed than intended)

• Fixed teleporter arc height being inconsistent at different framerates

• Fixed respawn drone timing being framerate-dependent

AI Fixes

• AI no longer fights movement during ziplines and bezier teleporters

• AI inputs are now properly disabled during all teleport types

Thanks everyone!
