Alpha 56 - Hotfix 2
Hello everyone,
A new Hotfix (2) for Alpha 56 (regular and experimental) is now available!
Bug Fixes:
01. Fixed: Rudder handle colliding with Player standing in front of it in the area of the Rudder handle and sometimes causing:
01.a) Raft "sailing" backwards
01.b) Raft drifting sideways
01.c) Raft submerging
01.d) Raft jumping away
01.e) Raft flying
01.f) Raft capsizing
02. Changed: Advanced rafts (lots of walls, multi-story (tier?)) do not capsize so easily
03. Fixed: Sometimes not correct internal state after detaching the Wall Candle holder from a build module
04. Fixed: Sometimes the Wall Candle holder not attached correctly to the Wall modules built on Raft ("levitated" in the thin air where the player's hand was)
05. Fixed: Raft tilting/flying/sinking after a Wall Candle holder was attached to a Wall module built on Raft
06. Fixed: Not exited Manual Sailing mode when the Raft sinks (and the player enters Swim mode)
07. Fixed: Not exited Manual Steering mode when the Raft sinks (and the player enters Swim mode)
08. Fixed: Not exited Sailing UI mode when the Raft sinks (and the player enters Swim mode)
09. Fixed: Not exited Sitting mode when the Raft sinks (and the player enters Swim mode)
10. Fixed: Possible to enter Sailing UI mode while not standing on the Raft
11. Fixed: Possible to enter Sailing UI mode while Swimming
12. Fixed: Possible to Sit down on the Raft while not standing on the Raft
13. Fixed: Possible to Sit down on the Raft while Swimming
14. Fixed: Displaying "Sit" on Raft hotkey in ActionBar while not standing on Raft or swimming
15. Fixed: Displaying "Sailing UI" hotkey in ActionBar while not standing on Raft or swimming
16. Fixed: Possible to enter manual Sailing mode while not standing on Raft or swimming
17. Fixed: Possible to enter manual Steering mode while not standing on Raft or swimming
18. Changed: Bug reporting functionality interacts with new external bug tracking system
With this version we take the internal behavior of how bugs are reported through the in-game function to the next level. Thanks to the creators of osTicket our bug reporting feature now automatically feeds into this system using its internal API. No more manually adding new bug reports to a list of bugs - instead because of improved workflow efficiency and the transparency we need is provided we save a lot of time that goes right into bug fixing and game development. Thanks also go out to Jonas Terhaar aka Kutie for lending a hand with the website code.
Because we cannot show you a screenshot from our productive environment, we still would like to show you what Escape the Pacific osTicket looks like based on our staging system:

We would like to thank you all for your support, bug reports and feedback.
Best regards,
G4GTeam.
