Greetings Lampbearers,

In today’s update we’ve introduced a small quality-of-life feature that alters how the storage system operates. Should your inventory become full from plundering, the latest eligible looted item will now be sent straight to the Coffer, allowing you to collect anything and everything along your journey through Mournstead. Alongside this, we have also implemented a solution that aids in preventing potential crashes on AMD graphics cards. Additionally, we have made further progress on multiplayer optimizations and tweaks.

Please find today’s highlights below:

Multiplayer Connectivity - We continue with our commitment to ensuring multiplayer is as smooth and functional as possible, with a further optimization pass focusing on improving online connections with fewer restrictions.

Move Items Into Storage when Inventory Full - With this quality-of-life update we have introduced a new mechanic that automatically sends eligible loot to the Coffer if the inventory is full. We hope this enables Lampbearers throughout Mournstead to go about their journey without repeated trips to the Coffer.

Crash Fixes on AMD Cards - After multiple investigations on our end and with our partners at AMD, we have found a solution that we hope will drastically decrease certain crashes on AMD cards. As always, if you do run into any crash, please click "send" on the Sentry report pop-up window.

In light, we walk.
