Changelog:

• In-game option to sort player list alphabetically or by group.
• Transition fog near edge of maximum render distance.
• New clouds and aurora borealis rendered in skybox.

• Added more trashbags to the fall-cushioning blue trashbag areas under the Seattle, Washington crane, and adjusted their positioning. The changes to mid-air strafing made these more difficult to land on, and they could be difficult to see from atop the crane while in first-person. These changes make the landing easier to see and achieve.
• Adjusted the car parkour at Rainbridge Island, Washington to be more forgiving. The changes to mid-air strafing made it more difficult to traverse. It should now be easier to climb down without breaking bones, and easier to climb up without getting stuck.
• Added wild animal spawns in the wilderness near Chersky Farm, Russia.
• Added item spawns to the upper floor of the Kivgrad Harbor, Russia office building.
• Added item spawns to the interior rooms (and outdoor picnic table) of the ship docked at Kivgrad Harbor, Russia.
• Tweaked the Industrial Generator from Rare Rarity to Epic Rarity.
• Renamed the Umbrella (barricade) items from "Umbrella" to "Patio Umbrella".
• Renamed the Flare (barricade) items from "Flare" to "Flare Sconce".
• Updated the item descriptions of the Golf Club and Wreath.
• Updated localization of the legacy editor's transformation tools for accuracy and consistency.
• Updated localization of various console commands for typos, correctness, and missing localization.

• Explosion armor value while naked.
• Planting seeds on ghillie netting.
• Overriding material IsArable / HasOil.
• See-through underside of debris clipping into the unfinished building in Seattle, Washington.
• Bad clipping and misalignment with objects around Kivgrad Harbor, Russia.
• Misaligned objects at the Keryev, Russia factory building.
• Railway track at the factory building in Keryev, Russia that briefly travelled beneath the floor.
• Floating railway bridge in Germany.
• Spot where players could rarely get stuck atop a crate at Shelton Farm, PEI.
• Floating or misaligned objects in Stratford, PEI.
• Floating snow around the Yukon road tunnel.
• Bugged zombie spawn point in the Ibex Valley, Yukon where the zombie would immediately fall through the world once alerted.
• Usage of various deprecated item properties.
• Skybox tree backface depth pass on forward rendering.
• Not returning attached effects to pool after parent was deactivated.

Draw Distance:

• Culling is one of the main CPU bottlenecks, and takes less time thanks to the early rejection.
• On first impression the old mesh clouds were often mistaken for flying boulders. The new clouds are a bit flat, but look less like rocks, and might be upgraded to 3D/volume textures in the future.
• Skybox reflections on metallic objects include clouds, stars, moon, etc.
• Sky transition fog makes the level feel bigger because it cannot all be seen at once, and is visually impressive / fun / colorful on many maps.
• Improved depth precision within the actual level reduces Z-fighting.
• The improved depth precision should allow a future update to merge the first person and third person models, which will make lighting and animations more consistent between both.

Patch #1:

• Cloud ambient lighting flash while rendering item thumbnails.
• Lowered airdrop plane height from so they are less obscured by the reduced draw distance.
