Overview:

• Post-processing effects have been upgraded for performance, quality, and fixes. In particular the first-person viewmodel skins now benefit from ambient occlusion and bloom.
• Valid underground spaces have been manually designated, so players out-of-bounds are automatically teleported back into the map. Along with fixes to miscellaneous physics exploits this ought to put a stop to underground glitch bases.
• Many new toys for creators from the basis of custom weather events (e.g. sandstorms) to replacing the vanilla crafting recipes in total conversions.

Update Notes:

• Added Non-Headshot Armor Multiplier to zombie config for difficulty or headshot-only modes.
• Added Bypass_Buildable_Mobility to gameplay config which allows sentry guns and beds on vehicles.
• Allow_Instakill_Headshots player config applies to zombies when Weapons_Use_Player_Damage is enabled.
• Passengers cannot repair their vehicle unless per-vehicle Can_Repair_While_Seated is enabled.
• Oil pumpjacks and fuel tanks can hold more gasoline.
• Cannot build on vehicles with occupied seats.

• Replaced client-side Steam inventory quantity consolidation with automatic server-side stacking.
• Anonymous name is shown rather than groupmate nickname while in streamer mode.
• Upgraded from Unity's post process stack v1 to v2.
• Zombies stuck during horde beacon are teleported to a valid spawn point.
• Reworked third-person camera to use sphere sweeps (rather than raycasts) when testing for obstructions.
• Master bundle hashes are included in game asset hashes to prevent overriding with modified versions. Edit: temporarily disabled.
• Structures disable LOD group culling to prevent entities from being seen inside bases.

• Added ability for song assets to use master bundle references and legacy localization. Docs
• Added Valid_Speed_Up and Valid_Speed_Down for vehicles to override sanity checks. (meters per second)

• Defer enabling character rigidbody forces until the frame after respawn to maybe fix some vehicle issues.
• Converted industrial Dock #2 from mesh collider to box colliders to fix overlap exploits.
• Fixed fishing rod bobber not using continuous collision detection. With the right angle it could be launched through the ground to fish anywhere on the map.
