1.0.3-open-beta-3 | OUT NOW

The 1.0.3-open-beta-3 is now available in the launcher. We have changed and rebuilt some things. It is therefore very important that you follow these instructions:


1. VERSION:

The Lüdenscheid Launcher shows you exactly which version you are playing. It is important that this is 1) Up2Date and 2) written in the form. If someone is still playing an old or different version, it is of no use to us. If you play the current open beta and fill out the form, the launcher must say: 1.0.3-open-beta-3.


2. VEHICLE RESPAWN:

In the Public, vehicles are respawned after moving into the HQ. In the 1.0.3-open-beta-2 this was changed. Vehicles are now no longer respawned. Your feedback has shown us that this has led to a significant improvement. Therefore, this change will be kept as it is. In summary: Just about everyone stated that they had major problems with the ground in Public, but this got much better in 1.0.3-open-beta-2.


3. TOW TRUCK / MORTICIAN:

The tow truck / mortician logic has been completely rebuilt. They no longer spawn when you call them. They are located as fixed units on the map. Each map will have two morticians and (for now) 8 tow trucks. They can be alerted via the alert menu, or, as usual, by right-clicking a police officer on a vehicle or an emergency doctor on a deceased person.


IMPORTANT: If a player has no tow truck or mortician, an error sound will occur.


The assignment in the MP is as follows:

TOW TRUCK 1+2: PD01 | TOW TRUCK 3+4+5 = PD02 | TOW TRUCK 6+7+8 = PD03

MORTICIAN: 1+2 = LNA


4. GAME-ENGINE: Be sure to use the "ORIGINAL" graphics engine. Not the "Experimental


5. ROUNDS:

Please play at least 5 rounds and collect the information. This way you get a good average. One round is not meaningful.


6. MAP:

In the Open Beta only the Brandstedt map is available. It is not a bug ;)


7. CONTROL CENTER:

The open beta is not optimized for the game with control center. The changes related to tow trucks and morticians have not yet been applied to the control center, which is why the game will crash. Therefore, be sure to play without the control center.


8. CACHE:

When switching from Public to Open Beta or vice versa, the cache should be cleared. If you have cleared the cache, it is important that you load the map once in SP before you start the MP. So Emergency generates the new cache, which prevents problems in the MP :)



We hope that we can make progress with the ground bug and that the version will continue to run better than the public version.
