## Known Issues / Limitations

• Cannot use F-key interaction with walking citizens (left-click still works).

Critical Fix: Resolved an issue where NPCs with player skins could break chunks, which in rare cases had the potential to corrupt them.

• This is a Hytale issue, so we implemented a workaround. Because of this workaround, it is vital that server owners properly shut down their server using the /stop command or the "Stop" button in their hosting panel to avoid potential problems.

New Feature: Staff members now receive automatic messages when a new update is available.

Breaking Changes (Developer API)

• Removed "Commands" button from the citizen creation page.
• Other small improvements.

Known Issues / Limitations

• Citizens using player skins can cause issues with certain blocks in the same chunk (e.g., "Under Construction Sign"). This is a Hytale-related issue and we must wait for an official fix.
• Citizens can not hold items in their offhand.
• Nametags/holograms can not have colors.
