Len's Island News

[p]Hey everyone,[/p][p][/p][p]I saw a bunch of multiplayer groups picking up each other's backpacks and getting annoyed, so I quickly fit in a QoL change to make teammates dying and picking up your stuff a thing of the past.

We have some bug fixes in this patch too. The next patch will be in a few days from now, as we are going to take a little break to catch up on sleep :)[/p][p][/p][p]~ Julian
