SRM Update

Okay MechWarrior's here it is!

The "Buckton fix" as it has been known by has been completed internally. Brian Buckton did a good job of pointing out a potential problem area and recorded some video and so on. Additionally, Neema Teymory who has put many hours into hit detection and Host State rewind spent many hours exploring the issue and has completed the fix.

You heard me right, the fix is complete and will be present in the June 17th patch. In short, the bug worked something like this: Even though the server and client agreed that you did indeed achieve a HIT, a series of weapon missile explosion codes would then ignore the damage you should have caused. The end result is more damage for SRM's and I can at least state that you will indeed notice the difference!

This fix will be present in the June 17th patch, we hope you enjoy!
