Happy Thursday!
Once again, no major gameplay changes this week. Metal facemasks are a bit less powerful. Code locks do more damage if you guess wrong. Also, stone/wood walls have less hit points. You can read all the details at FP’s the devblog here.
On other news, we hit 30 consecutive players today for the first time ever. Crazy! Nice work everyone! Glad you’re all digging the server and having a good time.
