Update 0.90.04!

Hi everyone,

A new stable build (0.90.04) is now live!

Thanks so much to everyone who has been a part of Stranded Deep’s online co-op launch. We’ve really enjoyed watching the new content from creators and the community feedback on the forums has been invaluable.

The big focus for this patch has been fixing connectivity issues and issues reported by the community. Several important issues have been fixed which will significantly reduce the number of desyncs and disconnects and improve overall stability. We have a few known issues, mostly related to the ‘join-in-progress' feature. If you experience desyncs, we recommend quitting and re-joining in the lobby for now while we work to fix the remaining issues.

Known Issues

- The order of items stored in storage can be replicated out-of-sync when the client joins an in-progress game. For e.g.: it’s possible for the client to see a Rock in their inventory and drop it, but a different item will be seen and dropped for the host. If you experience this issue, we recommend quitting and re-joining in the lobby for now.
- Depending on the regional server load, sometimes joining an older session by code will not work.
