    Shame that my lovely collection of clothes are now almost entirely white in inventory and black if worn. Ho Hum !!
    But at least I can go get my ship :)

    The clothes won't even show if you equip them. Some things are not bugged though, the IFN uniform, and some NI clothes.

    I found out something that might be a problem, regarding the standard-issue jumpsuit that replaces OJs and Urban Walker shoes. It turns out that the jumpsuit replaces the full set including the shoes. (The suit has built-in shoes, maybe.) Which is OK - except that, unlike just about any other sets of clothing, it is impossible to wear a full set of armour over it. Specifically, you have to leave off the foot guards. I actually tried this; I was wearing a full set of armour and attempted to equip the jumpsuit, and along with being told it would unequip all the clothes I was wearing (quite normal!) it also told me the footguards would come off.

    Anyone else agree with me that this behaviour is a bug?

    Are you for real?!
    Is there actually someone trying to improve hit boxes?! Omg, that is unbelievable, I never thought I'd read that.
    Now please spread the word and tell every developer how it is done!!!

    They can if they want ;) Thank you devs for fixing it. This brings me hope for Arkadia, that you actually listen to your players.

    Wonder what this means? More mobs in each instance?
    Hopefully someone have the answer soon enough.
    Anyway, I'm in no rush to go back to Ark until graphene composite drops at a reasonable rate.

    i know it's late, but i bothered to try it out. for me the game seems stuck at planet loading screen, and i was trying 3 steps out of my 5 step entropia universe restore plan already. next would be the repair thingy before delete and reinstall, but i don't find that option anymore... :confused:

    it seems i have to adjust my plan to try 32 bit client instead of 64 bit too, but i've got connection loss... and it didn't work out either afterwards.

    i know about this problem for quite some time, especially at shared loot events, which i love to join. (underground! ssshhh!)

    so, what now? i'm a tech guy, and i have no idea how to fix it...oO

    hopefully cu around ingame soon, rather than being stuck at loading screen :arghh:

    Excellent own weight/cargo capacity ratio, good for miners sending stuff to storage :)

    I had a similar thing last year when logging out/crashing underground. There were several of the arkadia data files that would get corrupted when going underground, and the only way to get back in game was to delete them and re-download them before trying to log in again.

    I see other problem after update. Mob spawns in Arkadia Underground was significantly increased. This might be a problem for miners. As example - I seen today too many Badgers around Cathedral Pass TP. Not checked other areas, but need to explore.
