3.18 Hotfix Inbound
https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/3/thread/no-update-in-4-days/5820532

CIG intends to push hotfixes to the LIVE environment starting with Evocati wave testers and then rolling to all players in the coming days.

Additionally, 3.18.1 is still being worked on and the goal is to release it as soon as possible.

I'd like to give a little bit of extra detail on this one. Our plan is to roll out a few fixes shortly to our Evocati testers. Because these fixes are client-side, they'll simply continue to connect to the same LIVE environment as everyone else (no PTU necessary). If testing with the Evocati goes well, then we'll roll out these fixes to everyone else in the days ahead.

Separately, the team is continuing to hammer away at 3.18.1, which we hope will provide more relief for some of the major outstanding issues. We're working to get that one out as quickly as possible. We'll keep you updated!

3.18 Ship Claim Fix
https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/1/thread/star-citizen-alpha-3-18-ship-claim-update

CIG has an upcoming fix that will change how your ships are entitled to you and delivered upon initial spawn to help with claiming and spawning issues.

*One issue that has been negatively impacting our database is the large number of entitlement calls being made for player vehicles at initial start-up. To alleviate this, we are implementing a solution that we hope will significantly reduce strain on the backend and help us provide a smoother service. Our intention is to roll out this solution out soon, but we wanted to give you an early heads up of the incoming change to how you summon your vehicle.

The change we are making affects how you obtain your vehicle when logging into the game for the first time. Instead of being immediately entitled to your home location in-game, ships purchased on our website will now be available at any ASOP terminal labeled as "Deliverable". You can claim your ship by pressing the "Deliver" button, which functions similarly to the standard insurance claim but is free and only takes about 20 seconds.* - Zyloh | CIG

**We have heard your feedback regarding patch notes and potentially splitting EVO notes into their own space. We will not be doing this for the time being. Patch notes are patch notes and we prefer to keep them all in the same space. We have heard you and understand your reasoning, just not a change we intend to make at the moment.

We will of course continue to spoiler all Evocati patch notes and continue to clearly indicate when they are Evocati**

Hello PTU Testers!

The link on this post is a great place to discuss new bugfixes and new issues encountered from the latest PTU release.

Below you will find a survey to check on bug fixes taken from the most recent set of patch notes. If you have time, investigate those features and let us know if we were able to resolve the issue. If the issue persists, please add to reports of the issue in the IC and let us know below!

For tonight's publish we have 2 fixes that are quite significant.
First: We have put a fix in for a longstanding bug causing invisible Asteroids and Rocks. Please let us know here if you still experience this with exact locations or video if possible! Try low flying on surfaces and asteroid belts and lagrange points.
Second: We have put in further changes that should help make docking ports function consistently. We are looking for other edge cases where this may still fail and any video or data on this if it still occurs would be greatly appreciated

Survey

Thanks for your help!

This hotfix will not affect non-LTP items in game so you will not lose consumables, rentals, refinery jobs, character/hangar customization, and home locations.
We intend to leave this on the HOTFIX channel for a bit to test comparability before pushing out to everyone on the main LIVE channel

Patch Details:
➣ Fixed - PU - Personal Hangar - ASOP/Ship spawn - Entities that clip under the ship elevator can break personal hangars and ASOP
➣ Fixed - PU - Shopping - Trading - Commodity Kiosk - Unable to sell Ores due to "Transition Cost Mismatch" error
➣ Fixed - PU - Personal Hangars - When delivering a ship using ASOP, it appears to be stuck at 00:00 until leaving and re-entering the ASOP terminal
➣ Fixed - PU - Actor / Vehicles - After streaming out a medical vehicle within a hangar, attempting to respawn in it will break the player character
➣ Added handling for spawning when the player's ship cannot be found - fixes some 30009 disconnect on connection errors

With the medical vehicle changes above, we've re-allowed you to set your respawn to vehicles in hangars, if you die and the vehicle is either streamed in, or was streamed out when not in a hangar, the respawn will put you in the vehicle, otherwise it'll be your last hospital location instead of giving you no location to respawn.

➣ Fixed a Server Deadlock

➣ Server Recovery: Enabled
➣ Starting aUEC: 15,000,000

Testing Focus:
➣ Stability and Bugfixes
➣ Argo ATLS (Only Evocati Members will be able to spawn these in today's PTU but they are not under NDA so find your local Evo!)
ㅤ✦ The ATLS Suit spawns like a ship in hangars from the elevator and there are a few known issues to know about for the ATLS

➣ Player ragdolls out of the ARGO ATLS when incapacitated and snaps back in to the ATLS while still downed
➣ Players in the ARGO ATLS suit don't react to getting shot
➣ Unable to log out in a vehicle containing the ATLS (Remove the ATLS from the ship to logout)

➣ When launching crates with RMB, first LMB input will not function (Players just need to double click to activate the tractor beam again)
➣ Tractor Beam placement can fail to ignore blocking geometry, causing unnatural collision on placement

Feature Updates:
➣ Gameplay:
ㅤ✦ Vehicle terminal scrollbar will now stay in position when swapping screens to deliver and claim
➣ Ships and Vehicles:

➣ Access Level: All Waves
➣ Duration: Up to 24 Hours
➣ Starting DGS:Player Cap: 1:100, increasing to 3:500 and possibly 6:1000

Testing/Feedback Focus:
Since the previous test, there have been many improvements to meshing tech and we are excited to test them along with you!

We are intending to leave this build up for up to 24 hours but could come down sooner if blocking issues occur.
This test will have each Stanton shard split into many authoritative zones. We are planning to start the test out at 1 DGS with 100 players as a baseline and increase this to add more DGS with 500 and then as high as 1000 players

This test will run on the latest 3.24 branch in the Stanton system with Replication Message Queue (RMQ) and Static Meshing and we'll be attempting to increase the player cap as we progress to limit test.
We will be doing many server captures over the length of the test to gather performance data.

Access Level: All Waves
Duration: Up to 24 Hours
Features: Subdivision, RMQ
Focus: General Performance & Stability
Starting DGS: Player Cap: 1:100 and will increase over time with short downtimes as we analyze data

Test Instructions
Thank you all so much for testing with us last week! Through all the data gathered the team identified multiple bottlenecks in network performance and have worked on a slew of performance optimizations on the network side as well as a some meshing specific stability improvements that were blocking us from pushing further into higher caps.

Today's test will be a repeat of the previous test with further stability and performance updates
We are intending to leave this build up for up to 24 hours but could come down sooner if blocking issues occur.
This test will have each Stanton shard split into many authoritative zones. We are planning to start the test out at 1 DGS with 100 players as a baseline and increase this and push as far as we can throughout the test.

This test will run on the latest 3.24 branch in the Stanton system with Replication Message Queue (RMQ) and Static Meshing and we'll be attempting to increase the player cap as we progress to limit test.

We will be doing many server captures over the length of the test to gather performance data.

Known Issues:
Currently, R&R Station elevators will teleport players back inside the station when attempting to use them. Landing zones and LEOs are unaffected. Avoid R&R as this will cause you to get stuck until you "fast travel" back to a medical facility.

➣ Missions are disabled and will not be offered
➣ After death you may immediately die again in the hospital bed but should revive correctly the second time
➣ Lagrange point R&R (CRU-L1, HUR-L1, Pyro Gateway, etc.) elevators are not working, other stations are not affected
➣ Because of the above issue, we strongly recommend against making clinics at R&R stations your respawn point
➣ We have had some reports of longer than normal loading times, if you encounter this please let us know the details
➣ Global Chat does not function

Arena Commander Alpha 3.24.2 PTU.9347188 Patch Notes

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/190048/thread/star-citizen-alpha-3-24-2-ptu-patch-notes/7219850

Audience & Server Details:
➣ Audience: Evocati Only
➣ Server Info: PTU Channel - US only

Frontend Restyle & Improvements
➣ The Arena Commander Frontend (main menu) has had its visual overhaul. Alongside this visual upgrade we have made several quality-of-life improvements and feature additions, from “Remember My Selection” for mode selection to a Force Launch feature.

Squadron 42 meets Persistent Universe in this blend of UI styles, establishing style direction for future Arena Commander UIs.

Game Modes
Free Flight
➣ Player Limit Increased to 24
➣ New Map: The Good Doctor
➣ Travel over 100 years in the past and explore both inside and out this unique Hatfield & Harding facility on Mya, in the Leir System. A historical snapshot of a beautiful location with a harrowing sinister past.

System & Balance
➣ Mini-Map: Alongside Security Post Kareah, all Arena Commander locations have been updated to support the mini-map HUD feature.

REC Pricing
➣ All vehicle REC pricing have been halved.

Miscellaneous
All locations featuring the “holosphere” have had it replaced with the soft playable-area system, this should resolve a number of graphical issues caused by the loading/unloading of this legacy asset.

Star Citizen Alpha 3.24.2 PTU.9360177 Patch Notes

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/190048/thread/star-citizen-alpha-3-24-2-ptu-patch-notes-6/7249098

Audience & Server Details:
➣ Audience: Wave 1
➣ Server Info: PTU Channel
➣ Long Term Persistence: Enabled

Testing/Feedback Focus:
➣ Stability & Bugfixes
➣ Vehicle HUD & MFD Rework
➣ New Character Creator DNA Faces, Beards, Tattoos, and Hair
➣ New Acidic and Rock Cave Systems
➣ Flight Tuning and Archetype Balance (Ongoing during PTU)
➣ New Arena Commander Updates

Feature Updates:
Gameplay
➣ Weapon Controller: Added actions to allow firing weapon groups independent of whether they are selected or not
➣ Added Exit Button to Fine Terminals

Ships and Vehicles
➣ Origin 400i Atmospheric Flight Improvement Polish
➣ Further Visual Polish to Ship/Vehicle Render To Texture Shaders
➣ Updated Scorpius MFD Material to Remove Doubling Effect

Weapons and Items
Rifles
➣ Rifles have had their horizontal recoil toned down to make them far more consistent at distances contesting SMGs.
There's a large bias towards people loving the S71 with it's much more relaxed recoil profile so tuning the rifles horizontal recoil down will make them more consistent across ranges
➣ P4AR
ㅤ✦ Reduced visual recoil
ㅤ✦ Reduced Horizontal aim recoil per shot from 0.07 to 0.02
➣ Karna
It's had a damage increase to become more of the high skill, high damage weapon you'd expect where it depends on hitting initial shots far more
The alt fire mode fire rate adjustments are to make less 'deadtime' in the weapon
ㅤ✦ Magazine size increased from 30 to 35
ㅤ✦ Increased the fire rate of alt fire from 60 to 350
ㅤ✦ Damage increased from 16 to 17.5
ㅤ✦ Karna Weight adjusted from 6.9 to 4.20
ㅤ✦ Karna Magazine weight adjusted from 1.62 to 0.60 (Karna weight was a heavy outlier compared to other ARs)
ㅤ✦ Adjusted Karna Recoil to start consistently then get more inconsistent as it fires, this is done to help it fit into that more 'AK' category we have carved out for it.
ㅤ✦ Minor adjustments to visual recoil to improve visual fidelity

SMGs
Aim return time is how long it takes for the weapon after firing to return to it's default position
SMGs were snapping really hard on this so for visual fidelity the return times have been increased
Keep in mind the stated return time is not actually how long it takes, it's got a longer duration then stated because it has extra settle / bounce time
➣ C54
ㅤ✦ Smoothed out return aim recoil
ㅤ✦ Increased maximum aim return time from 0.75 to 1.1
➣ Custodian
ㅤ✦ Adjusted min / max return time and curves to be in line with other SMGs
ㅤ✦ Damage increased from 11.1 to 11.11
➣ P8SC
ㅤ✦ Smoothed out return recoil

Snipers
The following sniper adjustments are intended to make 1HK to a non-heavy target viable at longer distances as the old values were too punishing and not allowing the sniper fantasy to be possible
➣ Smoothed in sniper aim down sight procedural animation
➣ P6-LR
ㅤ✦ increased distance before damage fall off from 200M to 550M
➣ Scapel
ㅤ✦ Increased distance before damage fall off from 150M to 335M

Technical Details:
This build contains many further fixes for greyed out elevator panels around the PU
➣ 10 Known Issues & 12 Bugs Squashed
➣ Fixed 4 Client Crashes

RMQ Meshing Playtest Round #6

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/190049/thread/all-backers-tech-preview-rmq-meshing-playtest-ro-3

Audience & Server Details:
➣ Primary Build: 3.24-tp_9368079 US servers only
➣ Access Level: All Waves
➣ Duration: Up to 24 Hours
➣ Features: Subdivision, RMQ
➣ Focus: General Performance & Stability
➣ Starting DGS Player Cap: 1:100 and will increase over time with short downtimes as we analyze data

Test Instructions
➣ Today's test will be a repeat of the previous test with further stability and performance updates
➣ We are intending to leave this build up for up to 24 hours but could come down sooner if blocking issues occur.
➣ This test will have each Stanton shard split into many authoritative zones. We are planning to start the test out at 1 DGS with 100 players as a baseline and increase this and push as far as we can throughout the test.
➣ This test will run on the latest 3.24 branch in the Stanton system with Replication Message Queue (RMQ) and Static Meshing and we'll be attempting to increase the player cap as we progress to limit test.
➣ As this is built from 3.24.0, copying the LIVE folder to update, instead of PTU, will be closer to file size instead of having to download much more data.
➣ We will be doing many server captures over the length of the test to gather performance data.

Known Issues:
➣ Missions are disabled and will not be offered
➣ After death you may immediately die again in the hospital bed but should revive correctly the second time.
➣ Lagrange point R&R (CRU-L1, HUR-L1, Pyro Gateway, etc.) elevators are not working, other stations are not affected.
➣ Because of the above issue, we strongly recommend against making clinics at R&R stations your respawn point.
➣ We have had some reports of longer than normal loading times, if you encounter this please let us know the details.

Testing/Feedback Focus
Today on the 3.24.2a PTU we will be running a 3 hour timed playtest of the first 3 phases of the new global event mission called Save Stanton!

While more phases of this event will be arriving later, tonight we will be testing the first 3 phases with you all and gathering bugs and feedback on the mission flow.
Since the last time the event ran we have fixed numerous bugs and performance issues. While there still be more, we wanted to give a focused time to give players a place to give feedback and discuss issues with the event here!

While we are testing Phases 1-3 of the Save Stantion mission flow on PTU all at once, as the event goes onto LIVE the full event will roll out over time in phases instead of all at once.

The playtest will start at 2pm CDT | 20:00 UTC and run for 3 hours
During this time, teams will be playing along and running server captures and extra logging to track down any further performance or event flow issues

Fixes Since the Previous Test
➣ Made various performance improvements around the event
➣ Save Stanton - Fixed - PU - Stanton - Phase 1 - Mission Content - After accepting the Cargo Recovery mission the "Locate the Missing Ship" objective can complete itself and remove the QT marker before player reaches the mission location

➣ Save Stanton - Fixed - PU - Stanton - Phase 2 - Mission B - Subsequent "Sabotage Gang Operation" missions are not appearing after completing the first one

Star Citizen Alpha 4.0.1 LIVE - Hotfix

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/190048/thread/star-citizen-alpha-4-0-1-live-hotfix-central/7688594

Audience & Server Details:
➣ Audience: All Backers
➣ Status: HOTFIX Channel currently Closed (Targeting opening later today)
➣ Hotfix Build: sc-alpha-4.0.1-9501436-LIVE
➣ DGS instances have started rolling out non-destructively onto 4.0.1 LIVE and will take a bit of time to propagate

Using the HOTFIX channel
The HOTFIX channel will become available for periods of time when the client-side of the game needs the hotfix. This channel will point to the LIVE environment and using this will retain and add progress to your LIVE account as if you were playing normally.
The best way to play on HOTFIX is to rename your LIVE folder to HOTFIX and verify using the HOTFIX channel on the launcher. Reverse this process to go back to LIVE once it is released or you would like to stop using this channel.

Feature Updates:
Client Side Hotfixes
➣ 1 Client Crash Fix

Server/Hybrid Side Hotfixes
➣ 4 Server Crash Fixes
➣ Further Updates to RMQ to help reduce dropped packets
➣ Further updates to the Entity Density Manager to help with high amounts of BWin issues. This change helps better remove physical entities that have fallen through planet surfaces as well as entities lost in space. Original issue was posted as Planet Monox but this update is more global (STARC-149624)
➣ Further streaming updates to help elevators stream in the proper hangar when traveling between hangars and to not invalidate instance culling when leaving a hangar. This is a potential update that will help with players attempting to get to a hangar and having the elevator open to nothing
➣ Added further mitigation for transit carriage getting stuck in the door closing state. This is a potential fix that caused Elevators to be present but caused panel buttons stop functioning. (STARC-121322)

Star Citizen Alpha 4.0.1 LIVE - Hotfix

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/190048/thread/star-citizen-alpha-4-0-1-live-hotfix-central/7692876

Audience & Server Details:
➣ Audience: All Backers
➣ Status: HOTFIX Channel currently OPEN
➣ Hotfix Build: sc-alpha-4.0.1-9503160-LIVE
➣ DGS instances have started rolling out non-destructively onto 4.0.1 LIVE and will take a bit of time to propagate

Using the HOTFIX channel
The HOTFIX channel will become available for periods of time when the client-side of the game needs the hotfix. This channel will point to the LIVE environment and using this will retain and add progress to your LIVE account as if you were playing normally.
The best way to play on HOTFIX is to rename your LIVE folder to HOTFIX and verify using the HOTFIX channel on the launcher. Reverse this process to go back to LIVE once it is released or you would like to stop using this channel.

Feature Updates:
Client Side Hotfixes
➣ 2 Client Side Fixes
➣ A potential fix has put in for power allocation and power pips getting set to 0 or off randomly. Internal testing looks good but please let us know if more issues arise from this once out on the LIVE environment!
➣ Loadout custumizations were not saving for players in EA FPS matches. We have put in a fix for this so it shouldn't reset to default loadouts between joining.

DGS/Hybrid Side
➣ 2 Server Crash Fixes
➣ We have put in further entity management performance improvements along with the ability to adjust more under planet surface culling of rogue entities if needed
➣ We have a change put in that should help with players getting sent to incorrect and unloaded hangars before getting sent to the correct one when spawning a ship from the terminal outside of a hangar.

Feature Updates:
Client Side Hotfixes
➣ 3 Client Side Fixes
➣ Changing shards was causing mission location travel markers to become removed from the player. We have put in a fix to resolve this issue.
➣ Weapons on gimbals on gimbals (2x) under pilot were not getting proper weapon grouping and thus not getting a PIP. A fix has put in to help with this.
➣ We have put in a change to help with client/server zone mismatching which could cuase many transit/elevator issues. This requires both client/servers to be hotfixed. Please let us know if this reduces or helps with elevators opening to nothing!

DGS/Hybrid Side
➣ 1 Server Crash Fix
➣ Grim Hex turrets are firing upon players with Crime Stats from other jurisdictions. A fix has been put in as Quantum Travel was not properly handling hostility and not removing it and causing the issue.
➣ Mineables in the PU were getting into a state where the render node was getting stuck and not transitioning into an entity. This could take up to an hour for this to unstick itself. We have put in a DGS fix that should aliviate this issue.

Star Citizen Alpha 4.0.2 LIVE - Hotfix

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/190048/thread/star-citizen-alpha-4-0-2-live-hotfix-central/7769268

Audience & Server Details:
➣ Audience: All Backers
➣ Status: Hotfix Channel open overnight
➣ Latest Client Hotfix CL: 9593160
➣ Latest DGS Hotfix CL: 9593160 (currently all shards have this hotfix)

Using the HOTFIX channel
The HOTFIX channel will become available for periods of time when the client-side of the game needs the hotfix. This channel will point to the LIVE environment and using this will retain and add progress to your LIVE account as if you were playing normally.
The best way to play on HOTFIX is to rename your LIVE folder to HOTFIX and verify using the HOTFIX channel on the launcher. Reverse this process to go back to LIVE once it is released or you would like to stop using this channel.

Feature Updates:
Today's hotfix addresses multiple server authority, stowing, and cargo issues along with multiple DGS and Client Crashes
This will be up on the HOTFIX channel overnight to verify and possibly onto the LIVE channel as early as tomorrow

➣ PU - Network / Transit - Entity carriage gets stuck with No Authority, causing it to never arrive to and block it's gateway
➣ PU - ASOP / Ship / Cargo - Upon the Ship auto storing through leaving game or leaving hangar; on initial retrieval the Cargo disappears and Cargo Grid is locked from being used
➣ PU - Locations - Personal Hangars - Actor - If player ungracefully exits while in hangar, hangar stows and does not unstow upon recovery
➣ Top Loading Freight Elevators - Ignore entities larger than the bounds of the FE shaft from being cleaned up
➣ Multiple DGS crash fixes
➣ (Requires Client Hotfix)2 client Crash Fixes including while nearing Jump Tunnels

Not Ready for Testing or Feedback

➣ T0 Item Recovery (Currently Disabled on PTU)
➣ Additional Missions updated for Meshing
➣ VOLT Weapons

Feature Updates:
Locations
➣ Polish Pass for Hathor Alignment Facilities and Orbital Platforms
✦ Further Lighting and Art Polish Pass. Work on the exterior overlay, cleaned areas, replaced meshes with more colourful/vibrant alternatives to hopefully reduce the overall "greyness" of the platform, dressed and placed assets around to break up and differentiate the platforms pads

Gameplay
➣ Enabled "Place from inventory" for Fuses, Keycards and Compboards
✦ In preparation for future systems, we have started to prepare the Ground Vehicle mining and FPS mining gameplay to fit out goals.
We split out FPS minables (Aphorite, Dolovine and Hadanite) to not be the minables you will be looking for anymore when you are going mining with your Ground Vehicle miners (like the ROC)
Instead, there are now new minables that are exclusive to the Ground vehicles and FPS mineables separately. They are now categorized as beginner minables, each with their own additional difficulty rating.
➣ Updated Adjustments to Ground Vehicle Minables
✦ Beradon (Easy Beginner minable)
✦ Glacosite (Medium beginner minables)
✦ Feynmaline (Hard beginner minable)
✦ REDACTED (Medium Expert minable)
➣ Updated adjustments to FPS Hand Mineables
✦ Aphorte (Easy Beginner minable)
✦ Dolivine (Medium beginner minables)
✦ Hadanite (Hard beginner minable)
✦ Janalite (Medium Expert minable)
✦ REDACTED (Medium Professional minable)
✦ REDACTED (Medium Professional minable)
✦ REDACTED (Medium Expert minable)

In addition to the changes to the minables themselves, there are now also 4 dedicated mining heads for the ROC that can be bought and exchanged.

These Size 0 mining heads come with their own bespoke balancing and give benefits for: Instability reduction, resistance reduction, optimal charge window parameters, laser power and more (Further descriptions for these items will be in the shops)

Technical Details:
This initial 4.1 build contains extensive transit logging to help track down the hardest to find issues.

➣ Item Recovery T0
Introducing the first implementation (T0) of Item Recovery - a long-awaited system that gives players more control over their gear after death.
This T0 initial implementation of Item Recovery will have players respawn with the exact gear they had equipped at the time of death minus stored items in their backpack and pockets.
✦ Upon death you respawn with your entire loadout (including mags/weapons/medpens) BUT not your inventory. Su you will lose anything in your pockets/backpack. This includes spawning at medbed on ship and back at landing zone.
✦ Your armor/weapon is then fused to your corpse - so it would have a blocked interaction preventing looting indicated with a red icon and tool tip. On death, held weapon is moved to available holster, to be fused with corpse.
✦ Ammo, medpens, grenades etc along with anything in your inventory/backpack would be lootable by you or other players.

Note: With T0, players will respawn with their weapon reloaded, this is a temporary thing until T1 is introduced.

For more information about the future of Item recovery, check out our community post here!

Star Citizen Alpha 4.1.1 PTU 9698719 Evocati Patch Notes

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/190048/thread/star-citizen-alpha-4-1-1-ptu-patch-notes/7866553

||Audience & Server Details
➣ Audience: Evocati Only with chance of Wave 1 after a couple hours
➣ Server Info: PTU Channel - US Only
➣ Long Term Persistence: Enabled
➣ Server Meshing: 7:3:600
➣ Server Recovery: Enabled
➣ Starting aUEC: 15,000,000

Testing/Feedback Focus
Ship Battle Missions (patrol, ambush) currently have their sharing disabled for these initial PTU releases

➣ Stability & Bugfixes
➣ Ship Battle Missions V1 (Patrol, Ambush, and Gilly's Gauntlet Missions)

Feature Updates
Locations
➣ New Space POIs: Asteroid Cluster Mining Base

Gameplay
➣ Ship Battle Missions V1 (Part 1)
➣ Patrol Missions
➣ Ambush Missions
➣ Advanced Combat Training Gauntlet

Ships & Vehicles
➣ Argo Raft Cargo Improvements
The ARGO RAFT has undergone a few changes that have resulted in a hefty change to it cargo capacity. This is due to the design change on how we want to handle loading and unloading cargo. The 3 arms of the RAFT has been retired in favour of a single grid that supports 192 SCU cargo capacity instead of the previous 96 SCU. In addition due to this change the old style of rail style tractor beam would not function and has now found a new home on the left side framing this station is controlled from the rear control room.

➣ Anvil Valkyrie: Greatly increased all around hull and joint health. Further thrust capacity increases but with a very slight max speed adjustment.

Weapons & Items
➣ Karna
Min spread increased from 0.1 to 1
Max spread increased from 5.5 to 7
Spread per shot increased from 1.37 to 1.8
Reduced alt fire projectile speed bonus from 2.5 to 1.75 (1500 -> 1050, inline with snipers)

➣ Gallant
Adjusted headcam shake to make the weapon feel 'smoother' to fire
Damage increased from 19 to 21

➣ ParaMed Medical Device
The Paramed is now is used in the pistol slot. The idea around this change is not only to make pulling the medgun out easier (using a pistol keybind that does not conflict with multi-tool) but to also offer some more choice in taking a pistol vs a medical device.

Technical Details
➣ 12 Known issues & 49 Bugs Squashed
➣ Fixed 8 Client Crashes
➣ Fixed 9 Server Crashes
➣ Fixed a Mainthread Deadlock ||

➣ UEE Training Mission
➣ Fleet Week Halls & Idris Tour
➣ New Wikelo Rewards

Feature Updates:
Core Tech:
➣ Synchronize Party Launch
Updating the Party Launch feature to have better functionality for server queues.

When party leader joins PU from the front end, party launch notifications are now sent as soon as the Party Leader joins a Shard Queue so that the party is all queued at the same time. Previously, the party launch notifications were taking place after the party leader transitions into PU so this will make the process much cleaner for parties when there is a longer queue. Along with this, party launch UI notifications are now displayed. If party leader cancels a Join Queue, party members still in queue will also get a cancel (with UI notification indicating the party leader canceled queue).

Technical Details:
➣ 13 Known Issues and 5 Bugs fixed
➣ Fixed 2 Client and 2 Server Crashes

Technical Details:
Going into the LIVE release of 4.1.1, we are expecting equipped items and armor to disappear off the player. This issue is fixed in builds after 4.1.1 is LIVE but going into this build it will occur.
We are expecting the new 3d comms calls to work but there's a chance they won't always appear on some sessions. Relaunching the game may help resolve this but we are looking for further updates Friday to help.
