Rocket Science Update - Hotfix No. 6: Declaring War on Red Herrings


Okay one more hotfix. A big thankyou to everybody who described their crashes to me, I believe I have found a single root cause for all of them.

So the new weapon, the Gyrobuster is belt-fed and doesn’t eject an empty magazine when it reloads. To that end I added a check during reloading to see if the current weapon type has an asset for its magazine spawn. Well it turns out that auto-reload follows a slightly different code path to manual reloads and I’d forgotten to copy-paste the same check.

I play with auto-reload always turned off, and playing on the hardest difficulty also disables auto-reload, which is consistent with all of the otherwise only vaguely related crash reports.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk, another big shout out to everyone who reported their crashes to me, this was a serious wild goose chase but hopefully everything should be buttery smooth again now.
