Update 0.1.2: WD-L020, economy and server browser
Maintenance ended at 09:01 UTC with instructions to close and update before joining. Update 0.1.2 fixes the recent KB5124010-linked WD-L020 crash, closes named cash and XP exploits, revises enforcement, and adds Deploy, server-admin, stability, vehicle and UI changes.
Read BULKHEAD’s original announcement ↗BULKHEAD said the window was over at 09:01 UTC
BULKHEAD published the notes at 06:57:06 UTC on 30 September and scheduled services offline from 08:00 UTC for an estimated hour. At 09:01:02 UTC, @WARDOGS said the maintenance window was over and instructed players to close the game, update to the latest client and then join servers. That is a timestamped recovery instruction, not a live probe or a guarantee of uninterrupted service afterward.

Read the dated service record and current-source checklist →WD-L020
- BULKHEAD says the WD-L020 crash caused by Windows 11 preview update KB5124010 is fixed.
- The announcement does not publish a client build number or say that every older WD-L020 report had the same cause.
Cash, XP & enforcement
- Revive validity checks are now server-authoritative.
- Rewards from the vehicle fly-through exploit are capped.
- Rewards for destroying buildables scale with build progress instead of paying the full reward for a placed schematic.
- Depositing pallets into a FOB outside the zone now awards reduced rewards.
- BULKHEAD says caught Cash/XP exploiters or real-money traders had cash and progression reset, and warns repeat economy abuse can now bring a permanent ban without warning.
Deploy flow & server browser
- Deploy now leads to Official, Community, Infantry Mode or Low-Level server choices.
- Advanced Filters return to the Official server list.
- Long server names can be read on hover, Join shows connection and queue progress, and Region select shows the number of selected regions.
- Anonymous mode hides server names on loading and pause screens; gamepad is supported on the Deploy selection screen.
Community-server administration
- Admins can schedule a daily restart time in UTC and restrict RCON access with AllowedHosts.
- RCON message and broadcast lengths are capped, Standard becomes the default response detail, and config responses no longer expose server internals.
- ServerImageURL is checked when configuration loads.
Stability & bug fixes
- The update includes server-stability hotfixes and increased server security.
- Grenades, smoke and C4 can no longer be used from enclosed vehicle seats; the adaptive crosshair now hides while aiming down sights.
- Buildable critical spots now favour reachable positions instead of immediately repeating, moving into corners or jumping across the structure.
- A Havoc bug that increased damage taken from 20 mm and 30 mm cannon fire is fixed.
- Localisation translations are improved.
