Weekly Update #18 (v0.1.18.0) - VO for all racers FIXED & More Lobby Options!

[p]Hello everyone![/p][p][/p][h3]🎤 Voice-Over for All Racers — FIXED![/h3][p]Last week we introduced voice-over (VO) for all players during races… and unfortunately had to roll it back shortly after 😞[/p][p]
The issue was that modded characters’ audio settings weren’t updating correctly, and we spent several days trying to solve it without requiring modders to update their existing mods.[/p][p]I’m happy to say we’ve successfully fixed the problem and no changes are required to existing mods, and the feature is now fully working in this build! 🎉
[/p][p]Huge thanks to @Kami, our community manager, who helped fine-tune this feature and did a lot of testing to make sure everything works as expected.[/p][hr][/hr][h3]🧑‍🤝‍🧑 More Lobby Options[/h3][p]This build includes many lobby improvements, plus a super cool new feature that lets you:[/p]
