Punishable Activities
[h2]Bug Fixes and Improvements[/h2]
- [Map] Rust has been removed from the Secure Point map pool
- [Female Custom Character] The Female Custom Character model and it's Custom parts have been modified to address a defect in the animations.
- [Options/Video] Added an option to adjust the FPS Cap in the lobby.
- [Options/Video] Added the option to choose between visually holding the weapon in your right or left hand. However, some text may not be mirrored correctly. To resolve this, additional textures would have to be used, and since this would waste resources the issue has not been remedied.

- [Loadout] Items are now sorted alphabetically. (However, some items will still appear at the top of the list due to grade, being a recent purchase, etc)
