Bug Fixes

Fixed a bug that could cause you to lose the ability to switch weapons if firing a Grappler while crashing a vehicle or interacting with an object during travel.
Fixed a bug where your ability to fire would be delayed after discarding a Grappler.
Removed the ability to ride or be pushed by a Grappler due to the ability for players to move fast enough to cause network issues.
Fixed Balloons not being popped by explosions.
Fixed issue causing odd dynamite size/scaling when picking it up and re-throwing.
When a player is eliminated by Down-But-Not-Out bleed-out damage, the elimination distance is calculated from the original down location rather than the distance when they are fully eliminated.
Fixed an issue that could cause Scoped Rifles to have full accuracy earlier than intended.
Fixed an issue where the center dot of the reticle while scoped did not line up with the center dot while unscoped.
Fixed dynamite re-throw ability from being canceled by changing weapons or being a vehicle passenger.
Players will no longer receive credit for a “No Scope” in the elimination feed if they use a scope to eliminate a player.

Gameplay

Zipline improvements
Added the ability to change direction via player movement input button. Just move in the direction you’d like to go while riding a zipline, no jumping required.
Rather than moving at max speed as soon as entering the zipline, players will now accelerate over time to reach that max speed.
Destruction effects have been turned back on while riding a zipline.
Players will destroy the nearby player buildings before attaching to the zipline so their path becomes clear
Added a third decimal place for mouse/controller sensitivity to allow for more granular values.
To help with situations where walls are built mostly underground, we've added functionality where an extra piece will be built for free on top of that piece.
This occurs when the wall piece is showing less than 30% above ground.
Gamepad Sensitivity
Building sensitivity change also applies to edit mode.
Editing will no longer interrupt gun fire and pickaxe swings.
Corn stalks will no longer block gunfire.
Editing a structure will now begin without waiting for a response from the server. This should cut down on ghost shots before editing and make it a smoother experience.
Confirming the edit will still require sending data to the server and be impacted by high ping or poor server performance.
Vehicle impact damage to a player will now respect shields instead of directly applying to player health.
When a plane explodes due to any reason, it will now deal damage to both passengers and pilots. This damage no longer ignores shields.
Infinite dab is even more infinite...Dab for 11 hours instead of 10 hours in the lobby.
Adjusted map art to more accurately represent player & marker positions.
Textures of props used in emotes are now pre-streamed so scorecard and other emotes that use props will have less chance of using a low-resolution texture.
X-4 Stormwing passengers now have the same Hold to Exit functionality as pilots.


Bug Fixes

Fixed grenade throw animations not playing the follow-through when watching other players throw a grenade.

Fixed players not being able to destroy the Boombox from certain distances.
Fixed some issues with ziplines
Players will no longer be flung across the map or get in broken animation states.
A cooldown has been added to ensure jump spamming will not allow players with mild network issues to fall through the zipline collision.
The zipline magnet will no longer remain over players heads.
Players no longer fall when colliding with enemy structures.
Players no longer dismount ziplines at steep angles when under bad network conditions.
Fixed an issue where players would sometimes take 2 instances of impact damage from getting hit by the X-4 Stormwing.
Damage numbers when shooting Mounted Turrets now properly displays as vehicle damage instead of player damage.
Players who are emoting on the starter island will no longer continue emoting after jumping from the Battle Bus.
Gliders and Umbrellas will no longer appear sideways or misaligned when dropping from the Battle Bus.

Tournament systems have been significantly updated to support upcoming features. We’ll be operating a series of small scale test events as we test these updates with more players.
We will be testing in waves until we are confident in the new functionality. At that point, we will again begin running tournaments regularly for all players.
Older tournaments will be removed from the Events tab on Switch & mobile devices for the time being.
Data for those tournaments has been saved and will return to those platforms in a future release.
Players will automatically be removed from the match after 60 seconds of spectating after being eliminated.
