Patch 1.08

Hey Everyone,

This patch fixes an issue where some PC’s could hang for a long time on starting a new game.

We also fixed an issue where some dedicated servers wouldn’t be visible to all players, as well as a bug with hard survival in multiplayer save games that would set clients to normal instead of hard, and a fix for an issue with stashing burning weapons.

For the full list check below.

If you are running a dedicated server, you will need to restart your server with the latest version to be compatible with this patch release.

NOTE: Our dedicated servers are not compatible with Oxide. If you have this installed on your server, or your hosting company does the game may not function correctly.

As always, please continue to post your bug reports and feedback in the Discussions area of the Community Hub
