V0.59

 

Hey everyone,

 

This is a small patch release adding support for players to create their own dedicated servers. We've set the dedicated server tool to release at 6pm PDT, however the patch of the main game to work with the tool should be released now.

 

As this is a first pass, it should be considered highly experimental. For the majority of players we recommend continuing to play the game in peer 2 peer mode whilst the final issues with dedicated server functionality are ironed out.
