Guilty as Sock! News

[h2]✅ New Features[/h2]

• [p]Votekick System: Got a disruptive player in your game? You can now votekick mid-trial! Just open the ESC menu, click on a player’s icon, and start a vote with your fellow socks. Democracy has entered the courtroom.
  NB: This system is designed to quickly remove disruptive players, but keep in mind: if a major role gets kicked, you won't be able to end the trial. A smoother solution is in the works!

• [p]New Courtroom: "Lights, Camera, Trial!"
  Ever wanted to argue your case on national TV? This new TV set-themed courtroom brings drama, glamour, and way too many cameras. [/p]

• [p]3 New Accessories: Style your sock with the latest courtroom trends.[/p]
• [p]3 New Hairstyles: Whether you're going for professional, chaotic, or “woke up 5 minutes before court,” we’ve got you.[/p]

What’s new:
🌐 Added a toggle to search for games within a close perimeter or worldwide
🚀 Local search offers better performance
🌍 Worldwide search lets players find public lobbies across all regions via Steam
🧭 UI updated to clearly let players choose their preferred search mode

What’s new:
🧭 Lobby sorting is now by creation date, not distance. This should help players in quieter regions find games more easily.
🖼️ Image import now works on Mac! ⚠️ Heads-up: if the host is a prosecutor on Mac, photo uploads might cause a slowdown. We recommend avoiding hosting in that role for now if you're on MacOS.
🔡 Lobby codes no longer need to be typed in ALL CAPS — lowercase works too!
🧯 Duplicate lobby names should no longer appear in the list.
