Greetings, Sleepers,

Highlights
-
Five new Landsraad missions across Hagga Basin and Smuggler’s Run!
-
Optimized the memory usage for shadows at a distance.
-
Tweaked shadow display settings to improve game performance without sacrificing visual quality.
-
Did some under-the-hood cleanup in Hagga Basin to improve the overall game performance.
-
Made the cargo container heavier so that it is not easily pushed around by other vehicles.
-
Players are now pushed off ornithopters at higher speeds. Standing on a flying vehicle enabled unintended combat tactics, particularly in PvP. You can still stand on ornithopters at lower speeds.
-
The UNSTUCK menu feature will now work differently inside Overland map dungeons by teleporting the player to the start location. Outside of overland map dungeons the behavior will be the same as before - it will attempt to find the closest valid spot and teleport the player to that location.
