Game Updates & Bug Fixes
(Shout out to players in the #rrplus-lounge on Discord for bumping some of these up the list)
New Stuff
- The dorm room door now defaults to ^RecCenter. If you prefer "Roomiverse", there's an option for that (Watch > Settings > Experience).
RRO Bug Fixes:
- Flag returned - but actually! We've fixed the most common cause of the flag not being properly returned in Capture the Flag in ^Paintball. It can still happen but very rarely now, and if it fails you can try again.
- Small collision adjustment near Red & Blue Quarry bases so you don't get stuck underwater.
- The ball in ^Paddleball no longer freezes sporadically at mid-court.
- Loot Chests work in Quests again - let the S-Rank carries rejoice.
- Fixed some buggy texture & collision issues so you can look cool in ^RecRally again.
- Fixed a VR bug where having your hand in pointing mode when picking up an object interfered with a clean release from that hand - totally throwing off dodgeball players.
General Bug Fixes:
- Recoloring vehicles won't cause windshields to be opaque anymore - clearly an upgrade.
- Fixed performance issues for players with a lot of backpack items.
- Fixed a bug where VR players could get stuck at a black screen after respawn.
- Fixed players getting booted to dorm if joining an R2 room that was recently saved.
- Added ability to clear all notifications - but please read them sometimes, I write those too.
- Fixed CV1 AnimationGizmo speed being locked to 100%.
- Fixed a broken CV2 holotar recording flow.

- Fixed a bug where some objects' position and rotation in Rooms 1 rooms might be incorrect when the room was saved in RR Studio.
New In The Backpack:
Consumables:
- Added new Grow and Shrink potions to make you very, very big or very very small. Check them out in the Supplies store or the Rec Center!
Roomie
- Players have been asking for a simpler, more "pet-like" way to interact with Roomie - so we're introducing Low Energy Mode! All the fun Roomie animations and interactions, none of the AI features. Low energy mode still uses energy, but a lot less, so you can hang out with your robot buddy way longer.
- Roomie is getting a few new upgrades! Soon after ship, expect new "Wings" and "Masks" outfit slots that you can buy for your Roomie. Along with newly animating wings, some other animations are getting a tune-up so creators can add flow to their capes or skirts and bounciness to hats or hair!
- The Roomie Energy store was kinda busted. Now, it looks better.
Share Cam:
- Fixed Share Cam buttons sometimes being blocked by your avatar's hand.
- Fixed an audio bug when recording video on Android.
- Added Share Cam video recording support for Quest devices - go film that tiktok!
Safety, Security & Stability
- We have updated Referee to better protect against current and common exploits.
- Fixed a bug where players you've blocked could still send you party invites.
- We're trying out some optimizations to the dorm servers; when inviting someone to your dorm after launching the game, it may automatically reload the room first.
