Happy hanging! ### Patch 3.3.3 QoL Improvements - Date: 2020-12-04 - Original notes: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/334230/view/2917733355995144733 - Permalink: https://whatsnew.fyi/product/town-of-salem/releases/steam-2917733355995144733 Hey Townies, today we are releasing Town of Salem 3.3.3, a minor release focused on QOL tweaks and bug fixes. The most noticeable QOL improvement is that you can now ignore people in Party Chat and in Lobby Chat. The full list for this release is below. IMPROVEMENTS β€’ Party Chat and Lobby Chat: You may now mute/ignore people in the Party Chat and Lobby Chat. If somebody is posting bothersome things, feel the satisfaction of turning them off! If you mute somebody in the Party, that mute will carry over to the Lobby as well. So what happens if the offending person leaves the lobby after you have muted them, and then they return to the lobby to further offend you? Fear not, muting is persistent for the session so when that person returns, they’ll still be muted. Be aware that muting in the Party or Lobby does NOT carry over to the game itself. If the person continues to post offending things once the game starts, you’ll need to re-mute them in game. β€’ End Game - Added Lobby Icons to End Game screen players list. β€’ Lobby Description: The description for the Serial Killer has been updated to mention their Cautious ability. β€’ Chat: Added additional URL types blocked in chat. β€’ Removed link navigation confirmation for non-mobile platforms. CHANGES β€’ Passwords: The ampersand symbol (&) has been removed as an acceptable character for new passwords. BUG FIXES β€’ Game Engine: The game engine has been upgraded to Unity 2019.4.15f1, bringing with it additional underlying bug fixes. β€’ Tooltips: Fixed an issue that could cause a tooltip to not disappear when its parent was destroyed. β€’ Chat: Added horizontal and vertical tabs to the characters that are stripped from chat messages. β€’ Fixed a null reference exception disconnection that could occur due to a bug in the underlying text controls in Unity. β€’ Fixed a null reference exception disconnection that could occur during the water wheel role reveal. β€’ Fixed a null reference exception that could occur on mobile platforms when showing an ad.
