- Patch Title: Task Force 0.5.4.1936
- Patch Release Date: April 4, 2024
The developer of Task Force has released a new update for the game on April 4, 2024. Here are the new things that you should expect to see or change on this new update. This information was curated directly from the official announcement on Steam.
This update makes some significant changes to the new jumping mechanics. There is now a bit of movement that takes place when jumping off the ground. It should allow players to jump onto ledges when standing up against them without interfering with the new jumping mechanics. It was very important that these adjustments provided a bit of forward momentum when jumping from a position where the player is standing in-place without causing the momentum of jumping while moving to feel somewhat askew because of these changes.
The MVP screen at the end of the game has now been fixed and should properly pick players for both teams. It will select the player with the highest score on each team, or if tied, will then select based on kills, assists, and damage done to the enemy team. Additionally the “music” command has been fixed and should properly save within your game settings which are synchronized via Steam Cloud (which means you maintain the same settings across all computers that are logged in with your Steam account).
A critical issue where character ragdolls wouldn’t clean up between rounds if the player left the game before the round is over has been addressed. This was a very serious issue that caused all kinds of “frozen bodies” in A-pose to be visible throughout random parts of a map (since these ragdolls were never cleaned up). Another critical issue with the “map” command in dedicated servers has also been addressed so that server admins can now actually change the game to a specific map rather than being limited to just skipping maps. Finally, some crashes related to the engine have also been fixed, such as the one that was caused by the image generation system for some of your in-game icons.
