Patch 06/05/2020 Game Version 1.32
Good Evening,
I made some changes to how Online Multiplayer works. Game Version is now updated to 1.32
Hosts can now start a Mission solo from the Online Lobby while they wait for people to join their game sessions
At the moment, when someone hosts a game, they're stuck waiting in the Gun Range with not too much to do.... I think this really discourages someone from hosting a game (as it could get pretty boring). Hosts can now begin a Mission (from the Gun Range board), and players can drop in midway. Newly joined players should be able to seamlessly continue with the hosts mission (for the most part). However I still strongly recommend that the host restarts the mission, just so everything syncs optimally.
With this change, I'm hoping to see more joinable games in the server list!
Additional Online Changes
- Added a Ping counter to show the players Ping per selected region.
- Client will now automatically try to reconnect to the Photon server if it initially times out
- FPS players were unable to see other FPS players if they chose any of the SWAT avatars. This has been fixed
Misc Changes
- Minor optimization tweaks to Map 8
- Changed some of the materials of player models so you can't see their eyelenses through the back of a models head
