Hi Pioneers!

BUG FIXES

• Fixed an issue where Vehicles would not receive fuel from a station if their fuel inventory was empty
  
• Fixed an issue where Vehicle Paths were not updated after a station was built over them

• Fixed issue in the main foundation/wall material that caused secondary colours to affect the primary

UI

• Added directional arrows to the path in the Map preview when loading a Vehicle Path
  

DEDICATED SERVERS

• Added Crash Reporter integration for Dedicated Server for both Windows and Linux.
  o This is enabled by default, we plan on including a toggle for this in GUI but for the moment, if you want to disable automatically sending crash logs you can do this:
  o Go to “SatisfactoryDedicatedServer\FactoryGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer\”
  o Open “Engine.ini”
  o Add the following:
  

  [CrashReportClient]
  bImplicitSend=False

  
  o Save changes
