Patch Notes: Version 0.10.0.4.268-9d2ca277

Ahoy, captains!

Thank you for your patience and support throughout our journey. In this update, we’ve focused on addressing some of the most commonly reported issues so far.

Among the changes, you’ll notice improved connection stability, reduced disk and CPU usage, and a variety of quality-of-life adjustments designed to make your overall experience smoother.

As for Steam Cloud Save fixes, they’re still on the way. After additional internal testing, we decided to give them more time to ensure everything works reliably before release.

Version: 0.10.0.4.268-9d2ca277

• Added a new setting: Force Relay Connection. Doesn't work with Direct IP connections. Sometimes players are unable to connect directly to their friends’ games because P2P traffic is blocked along the route. This can happen for many reasons, such as router settings, ISP restrictions, firewall restrictions, and more. This option forces the use of our relay servers instead of a direct P2P connection, which can improve stability at the cost of higher latency (ping)
