Hello Community,

Bug fixes, weapon tweaks and more - it's patch time!

• Fix to allow the Parachute to be selected using F keys whilst on Ninja Rope
  
• Fixed the delay when cancelling replays and position of the camera when returning to gameplay
  
• Fixed a bug which prevented players from using utilities in the final second of their turn
  
• Fixed a bug where a particle would be seen during a replay following a crate explosion
  
• Fixed a bug where controllers were detected following a disconnect
  
• Fixed a bug where stats weren’t always updated correctly following a draw
  
• Fixed a bug which was sometimes preventing a game from being found if a host lost their connection
  
• Fixed a bug which was preventing issues on the UI in the editor after publishing
  
• Fixed a bug which prevented some animations from being triggered correctly
  
• Made improvements to the camera so it will correctly show damages to worms
  
• Made improvements to the post process effects on weapons
  
• Players will no longer search indefinitely after failing to join a previous lobby
  
• Made a tweak to the Parachute whilst on the Ninja Rope
  
• Tweaked the size of the collision on the vehicles
  
• Team health bars will now be visible during the hotseat timers
  
• Improved the matchmaking experience for when multiple players are searching at similar times
  
• Prevented multiple dialog boxes from appearing following a disconnection
  
• Players will no longer get multiple dialogs after editing a team
  
• Theme names will now be correctly displayed when creating a new lobby after hosting previous match
  
• Community tab will now display a breadcrumb trail whenever new information is posted…..stay tuned folks!

We’ve also made some more tweaks to some of the weapons and utilities following some more feedback that we’ve seen from the community:

Air Strike and Demon Strike
Less chance of hitting the higher end of damage

Ninja Rope
Correction for worm spin.

Gas weapons
Fairer initial distribution of gas, environmental factors should still be considered.

Minigun
More spread on recoil, reducing ability to gain max damage


Oh and one last thing, Global Chat, it's coming rather soon...
