Mod SDK Update

• 🛠️ Fixed a bug that caused uploading a mod to the Steam workshop to reset the mod title and description.

• 🛠️ Fixed a crash that could occur for mods referencing SQRestriction_Count

• 🛠️ Added support to servers that load more than 10 mods

• 🛠️ Modders can now enable cross-team communication in local voice chat. This does not affect Vanilla Squad.

• 🛠️ Fixed an issue where mods would continue downloading even though the ‘cancel’ button was selected.

• Updated the mod SDK to v7.2.

• Updated mod versioning to v7.2. This means that all mods will need to be re-cooked with the v7.0 SDK to be compatible with the updated version of the game.

• Projectile Suppression Info now has separate controls for Passby Suppression (when a projectile enters the radius around a player) and Impact Suppression (when a projectile hits an object or explodes). The "Has Suppression" tickbox in Projectiles now functions as a simple toggle for all suppression functionality. Some Projectile Suppression Info Classes were removed, renamed, and added.

Known Issues

• Spawn timers on HABs and rally points can become desynced. Investigation has identified the issue, but we need more time to plan a solution.

• Anti-aliasing interferes with the picture in picture scopes, resulting in having to choose the ‘prioritize scope clarity’ option without AA in the scopes or the “prioritize AA in scopes” option, which can result in blurry PiP scopes. An investigation has identified the issue, but we need more time to execute a solution.

• Players with an Nvidia 4000 series GPU may experience crashes when using the DirectX 12 option. For the time being, switching to DirectX 11 via the game settings should stop these crashes.

• JensensRange layers are incompatible with the voting system. Setting them up for voting can lock up the voting flow. Please use AdminRestartMatch to escape the locked state.

Deployed To The Field
