Arma Reforger 0.9.8.53 Update Notes
Game
- Added: Mines feature
- Added: Gamecode support for per-projectile reloads for UGLs

- Changed: Log files moved from the profile into separate directories with timestamps
- Changed: Position of weapon from head now only uses y coord. And changed the default values to prevent long hands
- Changed: Aim modifiers should apply aim modifiers locally even on remote proxies
- Changed: Having a focused gadget in hand does not stop the character from sprinting, LMB while sprinting permanently hides the gadget, pressing R with a hidden gadget does not block reload
- Changed: DamageManagerComponent memory optimizations
- Changed: Better dynamic stance handling
- Changed: Enabled Door type navlinks to be automatically opened by vehicles
- Changed: Unified way in which AIs climb to match the way players climb

- Changed: Animation updates changed so triggering of animation events happens on the main thread
- Changed: GameTriggerEntity queries will now use async results
- Changed: Reworked navlink directions to be consistent. Jump navlinks have single unit traversal by default

- Tweaked: Improved AI perception ambient light model
- Tweaked: Stamina can be drained even while jogging now
- Tweaked: AI perception: targets are now detected and identified not instantly but with delay. The delay depends on the target’s amount of exposed aim points, size, stance, speed, illumination, and the observer’s alertness

Known Issues
- 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.
- Initiating PiP scope during weapon-switching animation results in the scope view being blacked out.
- PiP scope turns black when switching between prone and crouched stance while aiming down sights (ADS).
- Visual and audio effects of shooting might not be replicated for other players after picking up a dropped weapon.
- Problems with looting dead bodies were encountered during testing and require investigation.
- Players clip into the roof of a vehicle when exiting it if the server has low FPS.
- In the event of a kick, the player returns to their previous character, potentially causing replication issues with shooting until they reconnect.
- Base callsigns may be missing after reconnecting.
- Issues with an inability to respawn at a specific base after death were encountered during testing and require investigation.
- The spawn point of the radio operator may disappear from the deploy screen when they switch seats in vehicles.
- Passengers in a vehicle may be invisible to other players after switching seats until they exit the vehicle.
- Vehicle previews in the vehicle depot do not display properly while selecting a vehicle.
- The game window briefly switches to full screen during loading screen transitions.
- Attempting to unbind the “Rest Weapon” action in keybindings causes a crash.
- The filter for modded entities in the Editor Entity browser is not functioning.
- After enabling a previously disabled add-on, included missions are not displayed in the “Scenarios” tab until the game is restarted
- Add-ons required for joining a modded server may be incorrectly displayed after opening the server browser for the first time after disconnecting
- Modding: Community assets using TCModFuncs are not fully functional
- Addon downloading gets sometimes stuck or fails when connecting to a server.
- Addon download might get stuck if you try to download an older version of an addon you already have downloaded
- If you are certain your download got stuck:
- First try to restart the game and connect to the server again.
- If it doesn’t help, cancel the download/connection process.
- Try to initiate the connection to the same server again → You will see a list of addons that need to be downloaded/updated → Those are likely the addons causing the problem.
- Go to Workshop and find the addons from the previous step and delete them.
- Restart the game and connect to the same server again. The download should finish successfully.
- After vaulting weapon inspection is not available
- Motor pools are missing interaction. Workaround is to just build a vehicle depot.
