Core

    • Please report any weapon-based oddities you encounter to us via discord/fluxer or email!
  • Immense improvements have been made to helper and hook wrappers!
    • For the less technically-inclined, this means... more stability! Less desyncs! Easier debugging!

  • The custom trigger system has been deep-cleaned! (c. Veeq7)
    • This refactor makes the system easier to use, maintain, and improve upon in the future! But a huge refactor like this might have introduced new issues...
    • Please report any newfound issues in campaign and UMS maps to us via discord/fluxer or email!
    • Known issues: the wait crig action does not currently operate
  • A new campaign menu has been achieved! (c. Jesse)
