Star Citizen Patch 3.0.0ae PTU.677001
Major Known Issues:
- Clicking on Multiplayer in Arena Commander causes the client to crash. Game modes are currently disabled due to this bug.
- First implementation of persistence bed spawning will have numerous bugs and issues.
- Items and ships placed in hangars are not persisting between sessions.
Universe
- Quantum travel VFX minor polish.
- Adjusted LODs and lighting at outposts.
- Various lighting and functionality polish for comm arrays.
- Various interaction cursor updates.
- Texture and collision polish to derelict Caterpillar.
- Ship bed persistence spawning is now on. Note from the designer: This should allow players to log off (disconnect) from a PU server via a ship bed. This is done by using player interaction mode to get into bed and then triggering the “log out” interaction via the inner thought. This persists the location of the player in their current ship and the ship’s position. On re-connection, if the player was the ship’s legal owner, they will be put back in the bed and the ship will be respawned at the point the player logged off at. If the ship the player was in got destroyed after the player logged out (i.e. you were in a friend’s ship when you logged out so it wasn’t instantly removed), you should respawn back at the last station you were at.
- Added automated defense turrets around Port Olisar and security post Kareah.
- To improve performance we have removed 50% of NPC’s from stations.
- Automated landing can now trigger from slightly further away from the assigned bad.
Missions
- Increased the time to report to the start of a patrol mission.
- Moved corpses into better locations, adjusted the derelicts to allow better flow & added pirates to the derelicts.
