Hey Runners!
Hope you guys are doing well.
Today's update brings our promised bug-fixing build! We’ve tackled critical networking and lobby issues, including fixes for Voice Chat initialization, player counter mismatches, session privacy displays, and mid-match join prevention. Even better, the game can now automatically attempt to reconnect and transition out of Offline Mode without requiring a full game restart!
We’ve also expanded the Gameplay Van's safe zone to prevent traps and fallen power lines from being too close for confort, added a final tornado sweep fail-safe timer, resolved several cutscene visual glitches, and added a dedicated VAN speakers volume slider!
Bugs and reports that were addressed in this patch:
Added a VAN Speaker Volume slider in the audio settings.
Added a guard to prevent players from joining matches mid-game.
Added a fail-safe to the Final Tornado sweep timer to force the match to end once the sweep finishes, even if players are somehow still alive.
Added a status text message to the Mic Indicator widget on the HUD, Spectate, Monitor, and Options screens:
Reads "Connecting" if voice chat status is Pending.
Reads "Check Session Info" if voice chat status is Disconnected.
Implemented new, distinct Locked Door sound effects.
The game will automatically reconnect to Steam and leave Offline Mode without restarting the game.
Updated collisions in the Junkyard area to prevent players from getting wedged between cars.
Increased the Gameplay Van safety zone to prevent traps from spawning too close to the vehicle.
Fixed an issue where player voice activity would not update in the Mic Indicator, Session Info, and Spectator screens after reconnecting.
Fixed an issue where opening menus while getting up from a van seat or sewage pit would make the menu impossible to close.
Fixed sewage pit traps failing to despawn around the van at the start of a level.
Fixed an issue where kicked players could rejoin a session after the match ended and players returned to the lobby.
Fixed movement camera shakes not playing properly.
Fixed data collection animations so they only play in the character's left hand.
Fixed various initialization issues with the Voice Chat system.
Fixed an issue where session privacy always displayed as "Anyone can join" for client players.
Fixed an issue where the player counter on the Crew Assembly screen did not match the actual number of players in the session.
Fixed an issue where it was possible for more than 8 players to join the same lobby session.
Fixed an issue causing session errors to force the game into Offline Mode permanently.
Fixed an issue where the Gameplay Van could spawn on top of other level environmental assets.
Fixed an issue where vegetation was clipping inside the Sheriff Station.
Fixed a bug where Low Stamina audio cues were not playing.
Fixed a bug where locked doors played movement sounds while locked.
Fixed an issue where the Toolbox wrench remained stuck in the player's hand after completing a repair minigame.
Fixed an issue where the Boombox collision blocked other items near it.
Fixed an issue causing floating item shadows when standing in front of a flashlight while holding an item.
Fixed an issue where the CB Radio Microphone physically reacted and bounced whenever a Tornado approached the Van.
Fixed an issue where player UI remained visible during the ending cutscene.
Fixed an issue where using the Ragdoll emote right before the ending cutscene made the player body invisible during the cutscene.
Fixed an issue where players could get stuck on power line cables, falling in an infinite loop.
Fixed an issue where player character meshes appeared stuck under the ground for clients under specific conditions.
Fixed players taking weather damage, fire damage or getting hit by lightning during startup and ending cutscenes.
Fixed an issue where getting struck by lightning while holding a portable conductor failed to grant the "Benjamin, Who?" achievement if the conductor was destroyed by the strike.
Fixed an issue where power lines could fall dangerously close to the Van.
These are some of the main issues that we are aware of and are currently being worked on:
Connection issues to servers or invitation issues.
Performance issues on specific menus, when highlighting items, or when Alt + Tabbed out.
Tornados having unusual colors sometimes.
