Trenches
- Trickster: reduced Cobweb from 4 to 3.
- Fixed an issue with the symmetry of the map.

Other Changes

We've improved orb physics and visuals.
- Reworked bouncing logic to be more predictable and consistent.
- Orbs can now collide with walls multiple times and lose some momentum each time.
- Orbs now always show up as dropped items instead of transforming into a dropped item after the first collision.
- Replaced white spark particles with a consistent trail that follows all orb types and gets colored based on the effect, making it clearer what path the orb takes. The particles increase in quantity as the orb nears its explosion.
- Non-timed orbs now make noises while they are moving.
In games containing projectiles, you can now shoot them through teammates or allied mobs.
Death messages from potions and orbs now always state the poison/orb type used.
Reworked Hot Potato trap/modifier in Hole in the Wall and TGTTOS.
- No longer deals knockback to nearby players.
- Ticking noise, screen outline and fire particles become more frequent and higher pitched as the potato is about to detonate.
- Uses a proper sound effect instead of bloops.
- Fixed incorrectly colored messages.
Players that are eliminated in consecutive Battle Box rounds without rejoining now get a different death message in later rounds. Players are eliminated in multiple rounds to ensure that scoring is correct.
Disconnected players now have a unique icon in tab and on scoreboards. The tab list now properly shows players that have completed the round and players that have disconnected instead of only eliminated players.
The sliders in the Sound Settings menu now have different names to match how they are used on MCCI.
- The Environment/Ambient slider is now called Sound Effects as it gets used for various general sounds.
You can no longer access fishing while on a queue penalty.
Parkour Warrior Dojo’s background music now (re)starts when you cross the starting line instead of always playing.
Battle Box now despawns the extra multishot arrows after they hit the ground. Only arrows that can be picked up will stay.
Tech Items are now sorted in your Fishing Supplies menu by the time that you equipped them.
- This change was made to prevent your equipped Tech Items from jumping about when you add new ones or discard old ones.
- Item before the patch will stay at the end until they are replaced with a new item.
Shift-right-clicking on Overclocks will change the selected perk to the previous perk.
Modified some PW and TGTTOS obstacles that play differently in 1.21.4 due to client movement changes.
