Hey there prisoners!

First of all, we'd like to apologize for the issues that popped up with last week's update. With this hotfix, our aim is to get them sorted out and that you finally enjoy the game!

Here's the list of issues we have cleared with this hotfix:

---

- First up - we fixed an issue where Chests and Wardrobes revert to their default name after renaming them and leaving their rendering range! Now, the custom names that you give to them persist.

- There was an issue where items would get infinitely irradiated, which made them impossible to decontaminate. Now, we've set a cap for item contamination, and items can now be decontaminated as intended.

- We've also updated the server violation manager.

- We fixed a server crash which occurred when double-clicking the grab button in the cooking UI while already having an item in hands.

- We also fixed an issue where squad emblem flag, T-banner and camo net were completely black

- We also found black borders on the POSP, Spektral, ACOG, and M82A1 scopes when equipped on the SVD, Mosin Nagant, VHS2, UMP45, VSS and AS Val. They're gone now.

- We fixed an issue where reskinning of the base building items while playing in Sandbox would simply not work.

- There was also an issue where the physical material of the ground was not set properly on several places in the B4 sector, which resulted in vehicle tires slowly falling through the ground. That's also fixed.

- Fixed an issue where the DespawnLifetime timer on #SpawnArmedNPC command would not be saved on a server restart. Now, when the server restarts, the command will persist.

- Fixed the issue where, in the vicinity UI while playing in Sandbox mode, the icon for the Improvised Wooden Chest would show an apple instead of the chest.

- Fixed an issue where the Premium Electric Ceiling Lamp skin could not be applied when upgrading from the Asian Electric Ceiling Lamp due to the upgrade blueprint not being properly exposed.
