Changes and Updates
Transparent Goalposts

- With the setting now permanently on, these elements will no longer block a player's view when driving on or near a wall.
- The "Transparent Goalposts" checkbox has been removed from Settings > Video
Item Shop Notifications
- When notable or new items are live in the Item Shop, a new notification will sometimes appear at the top of the main menu.
- These notifications are enabled by default, and you can toggle them off and on in Settings > Interface with the "Item Shop Notifications" box.
The patch goes after half a dozen bugs as well, which you can read in great detail via the official site.
