Patch Notes 1.3.4.9 Legacy

  • Fixed a critical bug with Dynamic Civilian groups where you or they could declare war and your units would shoot at them but your units couldn’t hurt them

  • Fixed a Vehicle Loading Bug where units would teleport/move oddly after saving/loading. Got slightly better after the sidewalk bug that was resolved last patch but this should fix it completely

Going into Friday i will be investigating and triaging the Civilian Evocation system and looking at Bus movement. As always lmk if you run into anything crazy as im trying to move back to the rebuild to start helicopters with Derek when we start phase 2 Monday.

What Remains to conclude Phase 1:

  1. Controls + Key binding (Very close as of this patch it was disabled so we could ship this patch but expect this to come in tonight)

  2. Main Menu + Game Selection system (Targeted for Thursday night)

  3. Max Corpses need some improvements in online environments (Targeted for Thursday night)

  4. Gameplay option to hide other drones in the world

  5. Inverting the mouse when playing as the Operator

  6. Mouse sensitivity when playing as the Operator
