Warfork 2.13

Hello Forkers,

We apologize for the long wait between updates. Quite a few details had to be sorted out regarding Steam Integration, and things were put on hold for a bit. With that said, here is Warfork 2.13, which is primarily focused on squashing existing bugs. Special thanks to Htwo for giving our game some much-needed spotlight.

We would like to announce that we are seeking developers to contribute code for our upcoming Steam Integration update, Warfork 2.14. If you or someone you know possesses the skillset to help, kindly direct them to https://github.com/TeamForbiddenLLC/warfork-qfusion/ and https://warfork.com/discord The list of features we're actively working on for the next version can be found here: https://github.com/orgs/TeamForbiddenLLC/projects/5
