Wind particles were removed, and the buildup duration was increased. For the final hour of the storm build-up, the fog density was decreased. Made the cargo container heavier so that it is not easily pushed around by other vehicles.Players are now pushed off ornithopters at higher speeds. Standing on a flying vehicle enabled unintended combat tactics, particularly in PvP. You can still stand on ornithopters at lower speeds.The UNSTUCK menu feature will now work differently inside Overland map dungeons by teleporting the player to the start location. Outside of overland map dungeons the behavior will be the same as before - it will attempt to find the closest valid spot and teleport the player to that location.Read full patch notes here.

Happy first anniversary!‘Contemplation Tea House’ decoration set‘Master Operative of the Dunes’ light armorImplemented a new main menu notification to highlight Anniversary Event information.Self-hosted server improvements:Added an option to change the static IP or DHCP setting after setup.Added proper polling for Start/Stop battlegroup operations, so now stop only finishes when the battlegroup is fully stopped, and start only fires after all services are ready.

Before, it was only available during setup. If a public IP option is picked, the IP will also be auto-refreshed across battlegroup start/restart.Added an option to change the battlegroup's broadcasted IP after setup, and moved the logic inside the VM for usage within Linux.The battlegroup edit has now options for the director so that users can adjust settings like "Minimum Servers" for each map, and the adjusted settings will persist with battlegroup restarts.FixesFixed in-game event notifications to correctly display players' local time zone.In-game event notifications are no longer triggered on map change and on every login.
