226.2

• Fixed WaterTaps not refilling containers (requires server update)
• Fixed Dino Poops not appearing…. Dino Laxative! (requires server update)
• Fixed Dropped Items not appearing some times on Linux dedi server, woot! (requires server update)
• Fixed Dino Poop to smoothly fall from Dinos on clients, rather than ‘teleporting’ to the ground.

226.3

• Optimized the physics & networking of dropped items for better server performance

• Fixed client crash associated with clicking on Chieftain Hat Blueprint in Smithy
• Fixed client-side streaming crash that people were getting (disable threaded GC) — darn threaded GC had rare issue, will further investigate.
• Server: Removed Chieftain Hat Blueprint from Smithy (requires server update)

New

• New Armor Set: Ghillie Suit (Camo, Reduces Enemy Dino Visibility Range by 50% more, and Heat-Resistant)
• New Creature: Oviraptor! Gotta get those eggs! (Needed more polishing time)
• New Structure: Industrial Oven for holiday cooking en masse
• New Strucure: Modern Bed
• New Structure: Table Furniture (upon which you can place floor structures)

Changes

• Industrial Forges can now craft up to 20 items of a type at once, however they can not be placed on Dino Platforms anymore.
• Chief Hat & Turkey Mask now appear properly on Dinos
• Doubled Rocket Damage Globally, and also against Dinos by an extra 100%
• Exposed Custom Recipe Cooking Quality and Skill Scalars for Server Configuration. Increased Default Cooking Quality and Skill Scaling by a further 20% each.
  • WindowsServer\Game.ini
    (or LinuxServer)
    [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]
    CustomRecipeEffectivenessMultiplier=1.0
    CustomRecipeSkillMultiplier=1.0

Fixes & Improvements

• Fixed a protential case where players could be disconnected due to exploding Rocket Launcher projectiles
• Garbage Collector improvement to reduce game stalls/hitches (GC no longer forces an async flush which would result in a stall if any streaming operation was occuring).
• Mods are now only installed/extracted while at the main menu, to avoid lowering in-game performance

225.3

• Fixed crash that could occur in some cases with Boa‘s/Sarco‘s (swamps) multi-threaded animation updates (client-side)

225.4

• Proning and Crouching now reduce Enemy Dino Visibility Range by 40% and and 20% respectively (stacks with Ghillie Suit… stealth kill time 😉
• Changed anti-stuck logic to not affect players, only Dinos. Was causing super-velocity and killing some players during re-connection.

225.1

Changes

• Increased 4x Turkey spawn rate
• Dodorex dossier now given when claiming dodorex

Fixes

• Fixed Turkeys erroneously “ally” aggro’ing tamed dinos (including other players tamed dinos in pve, etc)
• Fixed “death by tree” if you knock down a tree you got stuck on (will deal with the sticking itself soon)
• Fixed poops not appearing at low server fps
• Fixed dinos moving sometimes when you dismount them on a saddle-platform

225.2

Fixes

• Fixed Gravity not working in some cases — yes, Isaac Newton is ashamed 😛
• Fixed an old case of getting stuck on trees and such when jumping — now you should automatically get hopped out of the stuck position, if this occurs.

Unversioned Hotfix: Clients enabled multi-threaded animations for CPU savings.
Unversioned Hotfix: Fixed a way that server or singleplayer game loading could crash if someone had placed Structures on a Dino from a mod that was uninstalled.

• New Structure: Industrial Forge
• ARK: Turkey Trial (Limited Time Event)
• ~15% client-side CPU optimization! (Added New Option Menu checkbox “Use Simple Distance Movement” , set it for less quality movement on distance creatures but significant CPU savings.)

• Fixed issue with Paraceratherium‘s legs colliding with his own platform structures
• Fixed issue with Parasaurus not being attacked by wild dinos (requires server update)
• “Tribe-Owned/Admin-Demolish” Governance Setting no longer allows Non-Admins to Replace Tribe Structures (as that is akin to Demolishing)
