• Since the build is still a work in progress, it still has some problems you may experience, like:
• Still incomplete localization for languages other than English
• Random disconnecting from sessions - we’re investigating tons of logs now and trying to fix the most common problems
• New floor built under objects standing on it before, may make those objects to detach from an airship completely
• Object, e.g Storage Boxes or artifacts, placed on any Storage Rack may detach from it when players move away from an airship
• After rejoining a session quest-related parts of some locations may not be visible for joining players (clients)
• Some things don’t work for clients yet, e.g. Pipes, Cross Pipes and Pipe Sockets
• The Infected Garden location is not working properly for clients - Preternatual Seed may spawn in a water tank in the middle of this location
• Friendly Insect is duplicated for clients in the Underdust: Tunnels
• Friendly Insect may behave oddly once in a while
• Clients may have a better visibility on under dust locations - the dust isn’t distributed properly
• Ladder Room ladder mesh will be replaced, right now animations don’t match
• Every player hears other player characters coughing (from the lack of oxygen) as loud as they would hear themselves.
• Upgraded Engines and Turbines tend to rotate oddly for clients
• Sometimes hitboxes for Inkbulbs in pots make it very tricky to harvest those flowers.
• When two or more clients extract a resource at the same time, it won’t get extracted. The players then have to stop extracting and only one of them should start extracting again.
• Oil Barrels don’t show the correct state when the clients exit and join the game again. They appear full, but they aren’t.
• When a player is left on a location and the rest of the crew fly away a certain distance, when the stranded player uses the UNSTUCK button, the world may not load properly for them when they return to the airship
