3.30.4.0 Update Notes

Client Workshop Improvements:

• Popular and featured workshop item articles can now be dismissed. If the carousel is empty then the next-most popular item is used.

• Featured workshop item subscription can be managed from the title menu.

• Workshop subscriptions changed while in-game are detected and update the maps list.

Server Workshop Improvements:

• Moved WorkshopDownloadIDs.json into WorkshopDownloadConfig.json. Server now caches query results and will retry when query fails.

• Whitelist/blacklist download restrictions are now enforced during connection.

Quality of Life:

• Flashbangs can no longer be used in safezones or around friendly sentry guns.

• Teleport command and NPC teleport rewards now report when destination was obstructed.

• Oxygen now persists between logins to prevent resetting it at high altitudes.

• Stockpile new label is now dismissed when the button is clicked.

Map Creation:

• Added support for per-level tips, enabled by setting "Tips" to a number in Config.json, and then adding Tip_0, Tip_1, Tip_# to localization file.

• Added level Allow_Skills and Allow_Information config.

• Added Prevent_Building_Near_Spawnpoint_Radius to level config (default 16.0).

Asset Creation:

• Custom objects can specify Add_Kill_Triggers true to cause Triggers children with name "Kill" to kill players.

• Added Can_Use_Underwater true/false for equipable items which defaults to false for primaries.

Plugin Development:

• Added questCompleted event for plugins.

• Added updateReplicatedState barricade function for plugins.

• Added helper functions for plugins to easily spawn replicated buildables.

• Added onPerformingAid and onPerformedAid events to UseableConsumeable for plugins. Individual stats are best compared by using both, as theys always occur in pairs.

• Disabled many missing asset related errors when -SkipAssets is enabled.

• Replaced serversideSetPluginModal with EPluginWidgetFlags granting more control of UI.

• Tidied up some of the damage events by moving parameters into structs, and tracking the damage instigator.

Game Config:

• Added gameplay config for disabling structure, barricade and vehicle zombie targeting.

• Added Use_Airdrops to gameplay config.

• Added Enable_Kick_Input_Spam and Enable_Kick_Input_Timeout config.

Server Console:

• Hosts can now specify -NoWin32Console on the command line to prevent the Windows server from manually allocating/freeing a console window.

• Separated Windows-specific console input/output from shared console code, and allowed plugins to override IO handling by implementing ICommandInputOutput and calling setIOHandler. When using a custom handler you can specify -NoDefaultConsole on the command line.

Fixes:

• Fixed Paddle repair blueprint.

• Fixed clothes not respecting Should_Drop_On_Death option.

• Vehicles in safezones now properly ignore all damage.

• Fixed not loading per-map .content files from workshop during connection.

• Fixed log files not sharing read access.

• Fixed several plugin network events not wrapped in try-catch blocks.

• Fixed cancelling pending exchange notification.

• Fixed Spread_Aim between 0.8 and 1 visually increasing crosshair size.

Miscellaneous:

• Menu notification system which was added back in 2017 but never used now supports timed windows and dismissing it, so today it links to the Short Film Contest voting stages. I expect we'll see it again for future community events.

• Accepted three new outfit bundles.
