This update features improvements for the Casino and Clepto maps, makes NPC movement a bit more unpredictable, and tweaks the Sniper and Backup classes to make them more fun to play against. Casino always was a difficult map for robbers, with cops standing on the indoor balcony to cover most of their entry points into the employee zone. The lower employee zone was tweaked a bit to allow robbers easier access to the employee arcades, and the door to the underground area was moved to allow robbers to enter it without being seen from the cop lookout positions. Before:
Now:
There should now be a lot more customers inside the Casino at all times, and more outside cover has been added to reduce van camping by the cops, and prevent cop rushes at the start of the round. Robbers will also find a new tunnel system on the Casino map, leading from the construction site to a small construction zone inside the bank, allowing them to more easily infiltrate the bank and giving them an additional escape route that isn't visible to cops camping on the roof or outside the bank.

Clepto Bank also received an update, also with more outside cover to give robbers more space to hide, and to delay initial cop pushes. There is also a new employee stairway leading up to the second floor, making it easier for players to navigate the map and giving cops more reliable access to the upper floor.
Experienced cop players could previously learn the movement patterns of the NPCs, and kill robbers solely for their movement, without them engaging in any criminal activities. This update aims to reduce this issue by giving the AI more freedom with their movements, resulting in slower turns, slight strafe walking, and more unpredictable movement changes. Some NPCs will now also try to actively dodge players like they dodge other NPCs, while others will now run into other characters more often, making them harder to distinguish from newer players and hopefully improving the gameplay experience of all players. Sniper, while not the strongest class, was able to use his unlimited supply boxes to block pathways for cops, which wasn't intended and has been nerfed now, with the supplies now being destructible after shooting them. Backup also was nerfed, he now has an initial cooldown of 10 seconds on his active sprint ability, it was too strong at catching robbers off-guard at the start of a round, while his Backup bots gave him a lot of power in the later stages of a round already.
