S&box Release Update
Hey everyone!
We are now live for a little over a week, and with the official release of S&box tomorrow, we thought it is a good time to make a post!
First of all, we want to thank everyone who has played our game, left feedback, reported bugs, etc.
In our opinion, your feedback is the most valuable thing a game developer can have, and it lets us shape the game based on what you want! So again, massive thanks to you guys!

- The website helps us monitor certain stats like performance, server uptime, etc.
- We completely overhauled the way we handle player data, we've come up with a system making it so that even when other community members host their own server, all data is now synced with the main server (meaning any server you join, you will have the same "save file")

- You now run faster when you're not holding a weapon
- Default cop car is now 4 seats (as it should've been)
- Gallo no longer flips over at the slightest breeze
- Cop lights improved
- Feet sticking out of vehicles
- Cop task completion popup now shows money earned
- Minimap is now just round instead of both round and square, not some cursed in-between
- Chat history is now permanent and scrollable

🪛 Fixed
- Players can no longer be killed with respawn shields active

- Vehicle bouncing has been fixed
- Push-to-talk lag spike fixed
- Sniper scope bugs fixed

- Added an anti-car spawn zone at the pawn shop heist location - Vehicles can no longer be spawned inside or on top of the pawn shop heist area
- Fixed crouch not replicating its animation - The crouch animation now correctly replicates to all players
- Fixed Proxy player invisibility on late-join - Players (particularly Roxy) would appear invisible when clothing sync or avatar data was delayed, especially on dedicated servers. Body visibility (RenderType/Tint) is now updated independently of clothing readiness so unloaded proxies no longer stay invisible
- Added extra null-safety around BodyRenderer and Dresser checks in the clothing update flow - Prevents potential null-reference errors during avatar dress/undress operations

- Fixed typos in UI
- Fixed visual issues with Hotrod particle effects
- Daily Rewards should (hopefully) actually be fixed now
🚯 Removed
- We removed the server offline popup entirely, it was triggereing at the wrong times, and s&box actually already handles this itself (it just kicks you out after timeout)
⚠️ Known Issues
- We're still not sure why some specific clothing issues are not working, we're still looking into this
- The gambling scoreboards still seem to be showing the wrong data
- Performance
