GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS
When in Lone Hunter (Solo) mode, the turning speed of Caravans has been slowed, and the number of attacks in the second phase has also been reduced from 3 attacks to 1 attack.
Adjusted the spawn of Caravan Chests. They now appear close to the Caravan instead of far away.

Improved collision of environment objects.
Knuckleheads no longer go into a sprint animation for a split second after completing their charged attack.
Tweaked the [Peller SR17] rechamber animation in some states.
Spread added for all weapons when jumping while aiming. Weapon sights now react a little more smoothly to changes in spread.

Improved the start of the pull animation when climbing up ledges.
Improved the jump animation while aiming.
Adjusted the mechanics and animations of the melee attack while jumping.
Added an animated flight cycle before impact when falling.
Tweaked the Hoverboard camera behavior, but only if the camera movement option is enabled.
Improved character animations for turning on the spot.
Adjusted the animation when mounting the Hoverboard when on land. Renegades will no longer jump when standing on the Hoverboard (you cannot jump when activating the Hoverboard on land if you change the board button bind).
BUGFIXES
RIFTWAKE
Fixed a bug where the [Gamewarden] contract [Croakers] wouldn’t count kills correctly.
Fixed a bug where the “You are in a new league” screen of the Contract interface would only close after the second press of “E”.
Fixed an issue where the camera would abruptly change direction when in the Riftwake.
X-ISLE
Fixed a bug where the Achievement [You’ll Put Your Eye Out!] didn’t count correctly when knocking down other Renegades while using your Traverser.
Fixed a bug where a delay would occur before you could sprint or jump when landing from a jump.
Fixed a bug where the direction of sliding and jumping would sometimes be inconsistent with player inputs.
Fixed a bug where Renegades needed a hand (or two) due to becoming armless when grabbing onto ledges in some circumstances.
Fixed a bug with the animation when launching a Boomerang while aiming.
Fixed a bug where Renegades would forget to hold onto the zipline when ziplining.
Fixed a bug with the armament [Outrider] registering hits.
Fixed a bug where Renegades' hands would dislocate during some animations with rifles.
Fixed a bug where Renegades would fall into the void underneath X-Isle while resurrecting squadmates.
Fixed a bug where the usage animation of [Exo] Gear wouldn’t display correctly.
When switching to aiming-down-sight (ADS), your aim direction is now saved if you aim at something further than 1 meter away. Previously, this only worked if the target was further than 4.5 meters away.
Fixed a bug where the Artifact [Vessel Flute] would not work on the owner if they were knocked down next to an ally.
HAWKED is now available in Early Access. That means that development is ongoing and relies on your feedback to help improve and polish the overall game experience before the full launch in 2024. As such, you may encounter gameplay and technical issues while playing.
We are closely monitoring gameplay sessions and your feedback, and HAWKED will undergo regular maintenance to deploy patches and hotfixes to resolve any issues. Please keep an eye on Discord and future patch notes for more updates.
If you need troubleshooting for common technical problems or account-related queries, or if you can’t find a solution to your issue, please visit our Support page.
The year 2024 has officially started in Barotrauma development, and we’d like to kick it off with a brief development poll.
We’re planning a new, optional challenge mode for multiplayer campaigns where respawning is limited and character death is permanent, and we have a few competing designs for how we might implement this Permadeath mode.
If you are interested, read more about the Permadeath mode on our blog, and give your feedback via the poll attached to the blog! You will find directions to discussion threads, where you can share your thoughts in more detail, in the same blog post.
The next update, including the Permadeath mode, revisions to multiplayer respawning rules and additional difficulty settings, will be coming later in the spring. The update will also include various kinds of new content, which we will start sneak peeking at in the coming weeks and months. Stay tuned!
