Update #3 is now available! The primary purpose of this update is to prevent modified clients from joining normal servers and vice versa. For more information on this fix and for the complete list of what’s new in version 1.003, please see the list below:
* Fixed a multiplayer exploit that allowed player created add-ons with modified
weapon.txt files to be used on normal, non-modified servers. Players using
these add-ons will now receive an error message when trying to join a normal
server or a server that's running a different add-on.
NOTE: This message will also appear if a player with an unmodified version
of the game tries to join a modified server. Server operators who wish
to use these mods should note the name of the add-on within the server
name field.
* Fixed a multiplayer bug that sometimes caused players crouching near the
terrain to randomly teleport through the map and pick up any weapons or
powerups that they came across.
* Fixed a multiplayer bug that allowed players to activate vehicles while using
the zipcord and then fly around the map.
* Fixed a bug that caused the player to fly up into the air when entering a
cloud of sleeping gas from below.
* Fixed a bug in the multiplayer host menu that caused only 3 of the available
bandwidth options to be shown when scrolling through with the right-arrow key.
* Removed Stun/Sleep Recoils.
* Fixed a bug in the standalone server wizard that caused certain options to be
reset when any slider bar on the same page was moved.
* Fixed floating ammo boxes and armor powerups in saved games.
