New Rust update makes gunfights much riskier, so watch that trigger finger

A new Rust update today has rolled out a heap of the fixes for some of the survival game's longest-running frustrations and foibles. Developer Facepunch Studios has been deploying some hefty overhauls in recent months, but for September it's taken a slight step back from piling in new features to steady the ship and refine on what's already there. The Rust Maintenance update is "focused on tackling a number of long-standing bugs and improvements" based on community feedback.
