Development Update 05
This development update covers the latest gameplay changes across the KeaCraft Network.
What’s New
- Added links to Bug Reports, Ban Appeals, Staff Applications and YouTube rank applications forms to the website
- Hill Race: added leaderboard fairness safeguards - impossibly fast times and runs affected by connection lag are no longer recorded (you’ll still see your time, it just won’t be saved to the leaderboard)
- Hill Race: improved detection of cheated runs - times from players using movement hacks are no longer recorded to the leaderboard
- Added an appeal link to ban messages (https://keacraft.net/appeals)
Bug Fixes
- Duels Hill Race: improved timing accuracy for players on higher ping, which was allowing occasional impossible times and records
- Duels Hill Race: fixed the timer sometimes starting late (part-way into a run) when a player’s connection was lagging
- Duels Hill Race: fixed race times occasionally landing on the same repeated values
- Duels Hill Race: fixed a slow memory leak that gradually increased memory use over the server’s uptime
- Duels Hill Race: optimised the race’s movement tracking
- SkyWars: Spectators walking particles are no longer visible to players still playing
