Item Use Bug FixedPlayers could scroll through active items, but the wrong item would sometimes be used. This is now fixed.
Interaction While Dead Fixed: Dead players were previously able to interact with objects. This is no longer possible.
FPS and Ping Counter: You can now enable FPS and ping counters via the settings menu.

Important Notes:

To use voice chat, make sure your microphone is properly selected in your Windows sound settings. The game uses the default system input device.
If voice proximity is not working and all voice sounds are 2D, try deleting your save files located at:
C:\\Users\\ \\AppData\\Local\\ \\Saved\\SaveGames\\
