Server R22 - release info

MikaelKalms · 26-09-2010, 02:54 AM

Server R22 is being rolled out. It is available with nearly every RSP; now it is up to them to deploy it to the server machines.

This is a minor security update, it does not affect features/bugs/performance of the game server.

We will publish details in a few days.

Details:

It was possible (via code injection) to use the game client to tell the game server to move other players. The "move player" command is used during internal development, when free-flighting around the map, and then 'dropping' the player at the place where the camera is located.
This command shouldn't have been supported by the retail servers though.

Server R22 disabled this command.
