Known Issues
Game
- Supply amount on bases is 0 after loading session save
- Players are unable to change stance after getting dragged from the vehicles when they are unconscious
- Getting into an unconscious state while leaving the vehicle can lead to player desync
- Players sometimes cannot join already existing groups on the server after they connect
- Persistent Sprint and Aiming Down Sights controls do not register properly when using a controller
- Characters in the turrets sometimes start drifting away creating a surrealistic portrait of a man with really long arms holding a turret
- The base will sometimes show the supply count in a decimal number
- Some items in the inventory can look blurry and have a low poly texture
- UI in the vehicle or the turret can be hard to see
- Composition holograms completely blind players when they are building structures with a shovel
- FidelityFX Super Resolution reset after changing the Quality preset
- Moving items in the inventory while using Arsenal will consume these items
- Players that die with the shovel equipped will see the composition holograms even without it
- The supply amount in build mode does not update correctly
- AIs will continue firing in the same direction from turrets if they fall unconscious
- Some fortifications are getting deleted on the server after placement
- Building previews are rarely visible for players without shovel equipped
- Players sometimes see only the disassemble action on recently placed composition
- The backpack is not visible in inventory after being equipped
- AI aims slowly with turrets
- Exiting flipped vehicles can place character under the ground
- Pointing a finger and opening the map at the same time gets the player stuck in the map
- Falling uncon while looking at the map will block the player from doing anything
Game Master
- Players getting killed by GM are punished for suicide
- Deleting all dead bodies and destroyed vehicles with the GM can lead to the kick of all GMs from the server
- Workaround: Delete entities in smaller batches
- Players leaving GM on a populated server have a higher chance of being kicked from the server
Warnings
- Progress is not indicated when processing downloaded data.
- Server performance can be greatly reduced when replicating a high number of characters (players + AIs), and this issue becomes more prominent with increased limits, making it difficult to handle 128 players and 200+ AIs.
- Playing Everon Conflict with 128 players is not recommended, while Arland might be more feasible due to its smaller size and fewer AI spawns. Pure PvP without AIs could be a potential alternative for larger player counts.
