[h2]Time Attack Updates[/h2]

The Pocket Watch will now display the Time Attack Record on the current peak. The score for time, holds, and ropes will be displayed above the pocket watch when it's pulled out.

While Pocket Watch is pulled out, these new features can be toggled:

• Press "Right Click / Right Trigger" to toggle the display of records next to the timer.
  
• Press "Left Click / Left Trigger" to toggle preventing the scoreboard from being pulled out at the summit if you don't beat any records.
• Press "Interact" to enable or disable Time Attack.
  
• The Hotkey for the Pocket Watch now only brings it up or puts it away, rather than enabling or disabling Time Attack itself.

• The rope score will no longer make a "record" sound and effect when it was already 0.
  
• Adjusted the volumes of the time attack sounds a bit.

• Fixed an animation with the legs when setting a time attack score.
  
• Fixed a bug where the Scoreboard would be visible in the Alpinist's Cabin when the Pocket watch was not unlocked.
  
• Fixed a bug were completing time attack trials in the DLC didn't reward medals.
