This patch focuses on improving overall game stability and correcting visual and interaction glitches. * **General Gameplay Fixes:** * Resolved an issue where certain Killer abilities could sometimes cause unexpected client desynchronization, leading to frustrating hits or misses. * Addressed a rare bug that could prevent Survivors from interacting with generators after being unhooked under specific circumstances. * Fixed instances where the 'End Game Collapse' timer would occasionally display incorrectly or fail to trigger as intended on some maps. * **Map-Specific Improvements:** * **The Game (Gideon Meat Plant):** Corrected several collision issues that allowed Survivors to get stuck in environmental assets, particularly near the processing machinery. * **Autohaven Wreckers (Wreckers' Yard):** Eliminated a visual bug where certain debris piles would flicker erratically when viewed from specific camera angles. * **Crotus Prenn Asylum (Disturbed Ward):** Patched a spot where Killers could sometimes get momentarily snagged on invisible geometry near the main building's entrance. * **Character Interaction Enhancements:** * **The Nurse:** Fixed an edge case where her 'Blink' ability could occasionally place her slightly out of bounds on multi-level maps, requiring a forced teleport. * **The Artist:** Resolved an issue where her 'Dire Crows' would sometimes fail to apply the 'Swarm' status effect correctly if a Survivor was vaulting at the exact moment of impact. * **Feng Min:** Corrected a visual glitch where her hair cosmetics would sometimes clip through certain headwear during high-movement animations. * **User Interface (UI) & Localization:** * Implemented minor UI adjustments to improve readability in the post-game summary screen. * Addressed several localization errors across various languages, ensuring accurate text display for perks and item descriptions.
