Update

We’ve been unable to fully resolve the outstanding bug with the locomotive headlight which is seen on some OSX devices. However there is a workaround; using -force-glcore or alternatively -force-opengl as a launch command will resolve the issue. Full steps can be found in our troubleshooting guide.

Tech bug fixes

  • The screen will no longer shake when docking, though the locomotive itself may judder slightly.

  • After erupting from host locomotives, Guest tentacles will continue to writhe.

  • Dreadnought Guest damage and death animations have returned.

  • The animations on Chorister Bee’s wings should no longer freeze.

  • Agent headlight intensity has been lowered slightly so it is easier to see their bullets on smaller screens.
