Big Multiplayer Stability Update!
VoyagerVR
The last several weeks I've worked almost exclusively on multiplayer stability. We've run several test games and this new version is a 10x improvement over the previous version.
We will continue to run these developer multiplayer tests so if you are interested in playing along, please let me know!
Big thank you to Adeptus AnonyMu5 &Rawhide Kobayashi for playtesting the game with me for many hours of the last few weeks.
