  • Fixed crash when starting Explore mode or a mod that defined a different network class structure on the client and the server (mods should specify a predict entry point in game_setup.xml)

  • Fixed third person Builder effect not showing up
  • Fixed damage number feedback overlapping with the crosshair at high distance

Optimization[]

  • Improved performance on the client and server

SDK[]

  • Added predict entry point in the game_setup.xml file
  • Changed point lights to default to no specular in the editor

In the last two patches we've made a number of changes to how the engine interfaces with the game code to improve performance. As a result this has caused some mods to break. These should be the last substantial changes to the SDK before 1.0, and after 1.0 we are planning on preserving backwards compatibility whenever we make a change.
