Psychonic sighted an one-two week delay in releasing this game update, due to additional changes. The new metro_imp3 version released today is available on Redstone immediately!

When the game update is released, everyone will universally benefit from these improvements!

Wow, that's great! Is there any possibility of bot fixes in the future?

Could you clarify the term 'bot fixes'? That statement is very vague.

Do you mean bots rubbing up against a structure and jumping up + down?
Or bots spawning on a dirt pile and getting their feet stuck into the ground?

Both of these issues result in bots getting stuck in the same place indefinately. I was able to reproduce one these issues on the latest version of Metro, by selling all of the base spawns.

The grass land is higher than the desert land. The elevation difference causes bots to get stuck. The transport gate is built into the ground, instead of placing it at the z-level of the highest square.

This seems like a relatively simple fix for a game developer. But I would caution about a possible regression. If there's a railing entity, it could be like z + 80 and cause floating transport gates.

If this transport gate was rotated in the opposite direction, it would've glitched the spawn. Perhaps the structure placement for the transport gate entity should be invalidated in specific instances. But this could also regress if there's anther solid prop entity like plywood. There's no easy solution.

Would be cool if devs make a free weekend cuz this game is almost dead.

Hey Vertex, great to read that you made an update for the game Metro. Congratulations. =)

There is a high chance the next game update will be this weekend.

The following building exploits on Hydro will be resolved. Thanks to Dark Soul for reporting them.

The render distance on Hydro will also be optimized, for a slight performance improvement. And it will no longer be possible to build sonic/flamer turrets inside the Command Bunkers on Hydro.

There will be a major game update released tomorrow. Two updated maps and mutliple changes.

would be good stamina limit when running, options for lean left and right and maybe the option to lie on the floor.
What do you think?

I think creating an option to prone is a good idea. You'll have to ask Psychonic about that though. I'm just making some map optimizations becuase the frame-rate issues are bothering me.

Anther game update is shipping tomorrow for Hydro. It includes 30% higher base frame-rates and multiple lighting fixes. The lighting in Empire's base has also been drastically improved.
