We are introducing the experimental version of Linux server distribution for PC community server owners. We would like to ask all server owners who are interested in running their server on Linux to try it out and let us know if you run into any issues. We’ll then evaluate the state of the build during the later stages of this experimental period and decide whether to include it in the stable release.

ADDED

  • Experimental Linux servers

FIXED

  • Server-side performance issues related to the triggers
  • An issue with triggers that would prevent the player from registering as leaving when teleporting far away from the current position
  • Splitting an item could cause a game crash
  • Removing the last attachment from a fireplace would delete said item
  • Quilted jacket was sometimes not visible in the inventory vicinity (https://feedback.bistudio.com/T159304)
  • Insulation level of the Combat Gas Mask was not visible
  • The Snare Trap was teleported on the roof after being placed inside buildings
  • Exterior fireplace could not be placed using the placing mode
  • PO-X Antidote and the Epinephrine auto-injector could fall through the terrain when thrown
  • The stealth attack would usually ruin the target’s vest
  • Post process effect could not be overridden for a contaminated area
  • Bandages were usually not disinfected on the fresh spawn character

  • Increased the brightness of the flare gun light
  • Dynamic contaminated area flare light stays for a longer time
