Release: Stress

Noticeable Changes:

  • ADDED ability for the police and NHS to control NPC traffic at a location @Dan B
  • Updated hospital check-in system @Archie
  • Doors revamp, bringing us a massive performance improvement @Archie@Mathias
  • Some important backend optimisations (more improvements to come but it is a start) @Ciaran@Recon Nine

Map Changes:

  • Improved Sinner Street station textures @Antollyme

General Fixes / Changes:

  • NPAS Helicopter now shows the vehicle speed, and only the front passenger can use it now. Also the zoom has been fixed, along with the wrong values such as altitude and zoom @Hawaii
  • GTA flight music has been disabled @Hawaii
  • Fixed whitelisting issues for offline players @Archie
  • The boat anchors now move with the wave. We're still investigating waves not working 🌊 @Hawaii
  • Fixed some sound issues in pillbox @Archie
  • Phone backend optimisations @Recon Nine
  • Backend court optimisations @Recon Nine@Archie

Final notes:

It isn't the most glamorous of updates, but our main focus at the moment is going back and improving old scripts and increasing stability / performance.
These do sometimes require some large changes to scripts, so lets us know if you find any bugs.

Hospital Check-in System:

From this update you will no longer be able to just lay on a bed by pushing [E]. You will need to check yourself into the hospital by going to the front desks at all hospitals. All hospitals have a limited amount of beds so if they are full up you need to find a new hospital or wait for a free bed. If you are feeling under the weather and alive you can check in for a doctors appointment however if you book a appointment and run away you will receive a fine for wasting time.

Release: Life in the fast lane

Noticeable changes:

  • Over the last couple of days we have had massive queue times which led us to the discovery that the standard queuing system we used was horrible for server performance. We had to fly in a world class @Ciaranto write up something that could handle the massive queue lengths that we currently have. Hence we now present: C-QUEUE™. Again a massive thanks to Ciaran for helping us out.

  • Fixed hud speedometer issues + various other hud improvements @Mike Polo@Archie
  • Handling changes to the Velar, NHS Rangerover @Mike Polo

Release: How many keep coming here looking for imports

Changes:


Temp-Changes

  • Server slots increased to 128 to stress and check performance, we shall see how it goes

Final notes:

I wanted to write this changelog even though I have done nothing this update other than shuffle papers and sign stuff. I just wanted to express my thanks to the development team for their continued effort in the optimizations, whilst it is honestly the worst and most boring thing to work on the guys have really stepped up to the mark! Recon9 I feel has been leading the fight against bad backend framework code, and has been sprucing some new life into how we interact with the db. It is greatly appreciated.

Thank you to everyone who has stuck around during the queues, crashes, poor performance. I hope everyone has noticed a general improvement across the board. Within the coming days, there is more updates to come with further optimizations and some long awaited minor bits which not many people care about which will make a return. See you on the other side!

Stealthee

Development Lead
