Hey players!
We are aware of the repeated disconnect issues affecting some users when a lobby loads into a new map. This is one of our current high priority issues that we are working to fix. In this update we've added a error message popup in the main menu when a disconnect occurs that may help provide us with additional info about the type / cause of disconnects that are occurring. Please report on our Discord if you see one of these messages, as well as what occurred prior to the disconnect (e.g. was it loading into a new map for the start of a round?)
In the meantime, this patch introduces a feature requested by some of our community members and streamers: a Deafen button! As well as a couple other minor fixes.
Added a Toggle Deafen button (M on keyboard, Right D-Pad on controller) that lets you toggle on/off being able to hear the voice chat of other players. Also added self-mute and deafen buttons to your username’s entry in the list of players in the pause menu.
Added displaying of error messages in a popup on the main menu when a user is disconnected from the game. Reporting these error messages may allow us to diagnose what causes these disconnects!
Improved the way that levels are unloaded (by first unloading the contents of each room before unloading the entire rest of the map), which may help with the cause of some disconnects
Added a couple of spectator keybinds to the keybinds settings menu that were previously missing (cycle favourite, toggle tracking)
The “Goober”’s weapon sounds no longer play more heavily in the right ear locally
Fixed the monitor in lobby that displays selected maps sometimes not updating properly for certain players upon returning to lobby from a map
Fixed the large cargo door in mainframe appearing to be closed but colliding as though it was open
