Known Issues

These are some issues we're aware of and working on fixing right now, but we weren't able to incorporate them in this patch yet.

• Certain structures have awkward snapping behavior when combined (notably stairs+floors and some walls+roofs)

• Under certain circumstances, some game objects can fail to replicate after either moving very fast or teleporting a great distance. This can sometimes cause buildings to disappear and result in players falling to their deaths.

Thanks for playing! As always, keep the feedback coming! <3
