v0.5.8.0: Lobby browser and text chat

Augusto Micheli Debard

Hi everyone! In this update, the Lobby Browser has been added to the game, allowing players to find and join public lobbies more easily.

Hosts can now kick players from the lobby, and lobbies can be set to Invite Only if you prefer to keep them private.

A new text chat has also been added to improve communication for players who are not using voice chat.

I will post a separate development update post soon to outline what’s next for the game!

Full patch notes:

Enabled Lobby Browser Implemented in-game text chat Added online player count next to Lobby Browser on main menu. Added lobby settings popup for hosts in multiplayer lobbies

Lobby privacy can be changed Lobby name can be changed

Added kick player functionality Adjusted positioning of rescue group on Level 2 exit and fixed Level 2 -> Level 188 exit zone check Fixed issue on visualizing objects that wont allow you to exit pressing E Networking fixes and improvements
