    [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]
    CustomRecipeEffectivenessMultiplier=1.0
    CustomRecipeSkillMultiplier=1.0

Fixes & Improvements

• Fixed a protential case where players could be disconnected due to exploding Rocket Launcher projectiles
• Garbage Collector improvement to reduce game stalls/hitches (GC no longer forces an async flush which would result in a stall if any streaming operation was occuring).
• Mods are now only installed/extracted while at the main menu, to avoid lowering in-game performance

225.3

• Fixed crash that could occur in some cases with Boa‘s/Sarco‘s (swamps) multi-threaded animation updates (client-side)

225.4

• Proning and Crouching now reduce Enemy Dino Visibility Range by 40% and and 20% respectively (stacks with Ghillie Suit… stealth kill time 😉
• Changed anti-stuck logic to not affect players, only Dinos. Was causing super-velocity and killing some players during re-connection.

225.1

Changes

• Increased 4x Turkey spawn rate
• Dodorex dossier now given when claiming dodorex

Fixes

• Fixed Turkeys erroneously “ally” aggro’ing tamed dinos (including other players tamed dinos in pve, etc)
• Fixed “death by tree” if you knock down a tree you got stuck on (will deal with the sticking itself soon)
• Fixed poops not appearing at low server fps
• Fixed dinos moving sometimes when you dismount them on a saddle-platform

225.2

Fixes

• Fixed Gravity not working in some cases — yes, Isaac Newton is ashamed 😛
• Fixed an old case of getting stuck on trees and such when jumping — now you should automatically get hopped out of the stuck position, if this occurs.

Unversioned Hotfix: Clients enabled multi-threaded animations for CPU savings.
Unversioned Hotfix: Fixed a way that server or singleplayer game loading could crash if someone had placed Structures on a Dino from a mod that was uninstalled.

• New Structure: Industrial Forge
• ARK: Turkey Trial (Limited Time Event)
• ~15% client-side CPU optimization! (Added New Option Menu checkbox “Use Simple Distance Movement” , set it for less quality movement on distance creatures but significant CPU savings.)

• Fixed issue with Paraceratherium‘s legs colliding with his own platform structures
• Fixed issue with Parasaurus not being attacked by wild dinos (requires server update)
• “Tribe-Owned/Admin-Demolish” Governance Setting no longer allows Non-Admins to Replace Tribe Structures (as that is akin to Demolishing)

Fixes

• You can no longer place wall-structures on doors
• You can now place wall-items (torches etc) on pillars
• Fixed offset of Compy egg spawns
• Fixed lockup when reloading savegame while crafting recipes (we recommend servers update to 224.2!)
• Recipes:
  • Fixed some ingredient scale values, and made all ingredients 5x as effective globally, and made Crafting Speed skill 2x more effective for recipe quality (yeah, Crafting Speed skill directly effects Recipe stats!). Will expose recipe ingredient effect scale and recipe crafting skill scale as Server configurable values in next Major version (requires networking change).
  • Made Crafting Skill visible on the Recipe’s Tooltip for comparison (this is Crafting Skill at the time of recipe creation 😉.
