Currently in or about to be in development server
1. Advanced crafting - in dev to test
2. remove hero city extra buildings as they dont add anything to game- in dev to test
3. reduce amount of zombies around players to increase server performance - in dev to test
4. Spawn ATVs at the bandit trader for permanent races.- in dev to test
5. remove atv's from tow/lift scripts.- in dev to test
6. limit spawn of atv so no wasted vehicle spawn. - not done - lowered price in shops to sell and stopped tow/lift to steal - in dev to test
7. investigate bandwidth tweaks to help with black screen issues as they seem to point to users with low bandiwdth affecting other people. - still looking will probably be another patch day but added network settings from dev as they seem better for Cookie
8 investigate possible /dance mod for Frankies nightclub - still looking will probably be another patch day
9. Add AI to roof in City. - still looking will probably be another patch day
10. Investigate changing one of the crafting gems to leave one for purchasing - in dev to test all ruby items now on saphire
11. Fix disapearing vehicles when purchased- fixed in dev to test
12. Fix bases shifting slightly on restart (gaps appear in floors etc)- fixed in dev to test
13. Upgraded roaming AI (ground only) from lvl1 to lvl2 AI - fixed in dev to test
14. Added ability to make floors and walls directly from lumber and plywood packs in your bag, it does make one at a time as normal but means you dot have to unpack them just make sure of tools and proximity to crafting table - in dev to test
15. Add some obstacles in AI city to prevent choppers landing - in dev to test

There seems to be problems relating to plot poles, safes and lockboxes...

I asked Prad to delete my plot pole as there was no option on it to remove it at all and objects were taking 6 steps to remove (instead of the normal 3 if you own the plot pole and the objects within the area). Replacing the plot pole gave me the option to remove it once again and put back the 3 steps removal on everything. This is happening to everyone else's plot poles in game too.

Edit : You can also place new objects but cannot upgrade anything, concrete walls for one.

We also seem to have lost the ability to open our safes and lockboxes without a code. Everyone now has to put in their code once after each server restart to gain access. It also times out and you have to re-enter your codes after a short while.

Thanks.

looks like plotpole for life has fallen over, will take a look but i will update all plotpoles and maintenance to make sure nothing gets deleted

sent Rob a message to take a look too: issue is upgrading or deleting old buildables doesnt work but does on freshly put down items, and the safes relock and dont just open for ID
