3. 💺 Terminal Update: Issues with Extraction Seats
- ⚠️ Originally, the Terminal had few seats for group extraction.
- ⚠️ After an update, there is now only one seat available, regardless of the size of the group.
- 🤔 This is believed to be an unintended error.
04:48 - 06:06
4. 🎅 Santa Aggression Bug: Connection to Rogues and How to Fix It
- ⚠️ Some players report that Santa attacks them without provocation.
- 🤔 Santa's aggression appears to be linked to aggression towards the Rogues.
- ✅ If you attack the Rogues, Santa will attack you for at least three raids.
- ✅ To fix this, avoid shooting Santa for three consecutive raids (it doesn't matter if you survive or die in those raids).
| Action | Consequence |
|---|---|
| Attack the Rogues | Santa attacks you for 3 raids |
| Be attacked by Santa and shoot him (even without killing him) | The aggression counter resets to 3 raids |
