With the holidays having just passed, this month's update is lighter on new content and changes. But don't worry, there's plenty of exciting developments ahead! Don't forget to check out today's Devblog, which will include a recap of 2024 and a sneak peek at what the developers have planned for 2025. As always, I will continue to keep you updated on all the latest in Rust development.
Fixes and Quality of Life
Although not a lot of new content generally comes in January, we do have some various fixes and quality of life improvements going live today:
Fix quick craft button showing the number of crafting tasks instead of the number of items crafting
Fix quick craft middle mouse crafting 5 items individually instead of 1 group of 5x items
