  • Interaction Logic: Fixed a bug where players could become stuck while navigating narrow cave systems.
  • UI Refinements: Corrected an issue where HUD elements would overlap during high-speed vehicle maneuvers.
  • Resource Persistence: Addressed an error causing specific resource nodes to fail to respawn after world state saves.
