Blitzers, this update fixes friend-sector discovery and makes same-syndicate teammates easier to keep track of. Living teammates remain on your radar across the current sector, including at long range and behind terrain. Rival detection ranges are unchanged.
Also fixed a dedicated-server crash caused by the Queen’s visual effects.
Please give joining friends and flying together another try. Report disappearing teammate markers, remote-ship stutter or connection trouble, and include your UWO INCR. number.
Your continued return from the belt remains useful to this investigation.
