Patch 1.0.5b Released!
1.0.5b - released 1 October 2020
IMPROVEMENTS:
* When loading a saved multiplayer game, the host can now change their wolf along with the game's difficulty, region, number of players, and access settings. They can also keep or remove the "wolves in limbo" (other players who were in the game when it was saved, and whose wolf is preserved in a limbo state in that game.)
* Players who leave a multiplayer game can now switch their wolf and then rejoin it with the new wolf.
* In a multiplayer game, the host can now kick wolves "in limbo" (who have left the game but their wolf remains for five minutes in case they return) without that counting toward the three-kick limit.
* Players who are in limbo (away from keyboard or have left the game without indicating they are not returning) have brackets around their wolf nametag, and that status is indicated in Pack Info.
* Death in multiplayer is reclassified as "near-death" (since you can revive without aid of veterinarian).
* New revive animation after near-death experience in multiplayer.
* In multiplayer chat, up to 12 all-caps letters are now allowed.
BUGS FIXED:
* Occasionally in multiplayer games, game is corrupted and cannot be saved.
* On some Mac computers, the pack territory overlay does not appear on the World Map. (We think we fixed this. Please report if we have or not!)
* At the end of pack rally, for client (non-host) players, the rally wolfhead icon does not (but should) flash black for 15 seconds before the rally ends.
* In the Quests panel, keyboard/controller icons do not appear correctly.
* When loading a multiplayer game, the Load panel shows Mate status, but there are no mates in multiplayer.
* In multiplayer, occasionally some creek pebbles have snow on them when it hasn't snow recently.
* Fossil forest objects are too bright when covered in snow.
* In Lost River, animals walk slightly above concrete in one section of Hank's Ditch.
* Some trees grow out of boulders.
