It's update time! A whole lot of environment stuff has been added!
Trees, plants, bushes, rocks
There's a lot of trees now.
So many plants now, you can hide in bushes! Hopefully this does not lead to to many performance issues... There are now settings graphics for turing down the foilage and lower framerates will be optimized for.
PlayFab
These changes took the bulk of the update. Characters are now stored on the PlayFab service, however this broke a few things. Inventory is not saved at the moment, player stats are going to be a bit weird, and loading characters is now a multi-step process. This loading process meant some work had to be moved up, and some extra particle effects were added when loading in the character. If your character is not correct at first, wait until the glowing circle is gone and then your character will be fully loaded. More changes on the way.
Other Changes
- Fixed character creator eye options.
- Hopefully fixed the camera attack bug (forum link).
- Fixed weapon stance toggling issue
- Added back game icon.

Characters Are Loading Randomly
Characters are not loading correctly and show random characters.
Edit- Seems to be working now. May need a server reboot to fix next time.
Character Position Desync
Server positions are not entirely synced yet. If you cannot see your friend, try resetting your position by jumping off a cliff.
Clothing not loading on Character Select
Still working on this.
Server Freezing
Cause is still unknown, but the server froze up after idling a bit. Please report if your character does not load so the server can be reset. Discord or the Forum.
