Developer Split Polygon recently released an update for Interstellar Rift which fixes multiple bugs and improves performance for the game. Some minor desync issues while mining were also addressed in the latest patch. Multiple crashing issues, such as crashing while the system is loading or leaving a game, were also fixed.
An issue that occurs if a player attempted to login multiple times and lead to the server crashing due to threading was fixed. General performance fixes such as encountering a drone for the first time and how they check files were also smoothed out with the current update.

NOTES
- Servers only need to update if they want to take advantage of the crash fix. No Rebuilds required.
- If your preferred server has not updated yet, you can switch to the 'previous' branch until it has updated. If you have launched a game in the new version already your saves will not work on the 'previous' branch!
