v9.9.0 - Onscreen Hands, Networking Indicators & Updated UI!
A new feature in this update is Onscreen Hands! This allows you to see and play from your hand from any position. This is great for those who prefer to have their hands in a static position on screen. Now everyone can have the best seat!
We also focused on figuring out where any networking issues are coming from, so we have added networking indicators next to your names on the top right, so you know exactly what’s going on.
Type /debug in chat and take screenshots of your readout if any networking issues come up. Use the following networking chat commands to help make adjustments when clients are connected.
Network Commands
- /networktickrate 20-120 (default 60) – this is how often the network will transmit data each second.
- /networkpackets 1-5 (default 2) – how many packets per tick to send out. Higher values make it so more objects can be synchronized each tick. (Host only command)
- /networkinterpolate 0-5 (default 1.1) – the amount of time for interpolation, increasing this value increases smoothness but also increases input lag for the clients. (Client only command)
- /networkquality 0-2 (0=high, 1=medium, 2=low) – changes the overall quality presets.
If you are having networking issue try:
/networkquality 2
This will require 4 times less bandwidth than the default.
Restarting the game will reset these commands to default.
Onscreen Hands
New feature onscreen hands that allow you to see and manipulate your hand from any location.
- The onscreen hand functions just like it does normally.
- Everything you do in your onscreen hand will be shown in your regular hand, so other players will still know what you’re doing.
- This allows you to view your camera in any direction or zoomed in, yet still see your hands.
- Objects can also go in your onscreen hand.
- Mousing over an object in your hand will show you the full view of the object.
- When you pull cards & objects into your onscreen hand, you will see a line indicator so you know it is there and the max size it can be.
- If you want a larger onscreen hand, you will need to extend the size of your regular hand zone.
- Cards will scale based on the size of the hand zone.
- You can toggle the onscreen hand by pressing H.
Network Indicators
- Added new network icon indicators so you can tell what is happening with the host or client.
- Hover over the icons for more detailed info.
- The icons will show for each person, to show what your connection is to a particular person.
- Connecting – This shows when you are connecting to this player.
- Connected – This shows when you are connected to this player through Steam’s relay servers. Performance is not optimal.
- Open the following ports if you are still having connection/network issues:
UDP 3478 (Outbound)
UDP 4379 (Outbound)
UDP 4380 (Outbound)
Not Connected – This shows when you are disconnected from this player.

v9.8.0 - Revamped Networking & Fixed Voice Chat!
A major part of this update focused on rewriting and optimizing the net code for object position synchronization which makes up the majority of the game’s network traffic. You will notice a huge improvement as the client when moving objects around with reduced input lag. This data will also now pass through Steam’s P2P network backend. Slowly but surely we are going to migrate all the netcode to use the Steam P2P.We also have some additional fixes and improvements for Voice Chat that should hopefully resolve the last of the issues.
Darkest Night Update
- Darkest Night has gotten a complete overhaul with a brand new look!
- We have also added expansions #2-5 for free as part of this update. (#1 was already included)
- Read the notes in the Notebook for additional info.
- As this DLC was updated, please note that any existing save files will no longer work.
Networking Rewrite
- Reduced bandwidth usage for moving objects by around 300%.
- Upped tick rate to 60Hz from 30Hz.
- Greatly reduced the input lag of moving objects around for clients with better interpolation, tick rates, and unreliable packet.
- Less chance of the network getting backed causing everything to be massively delayed forcing a reconnect.
- Added a smart system to dial back the send rate on objects when having to synchronize hundreds of objects per second.
- Host no longer has to network sync other players pointer that info is now directly communicated between each player saving bandwidth.
- Overall players should be able to host more with less connection issue with these improvements.
Voice Chat Improvements
- Hopefully fixed up the last of the P2P errors.
- Dynamic quality adjustments based on packet loss.
- Improved voice quality slightly with newer Opus version.
Configuration Menu & UI Improvements

Improvements
- Optimized hand performance with lots of objects.
Fixes
- Fixed issue with Steam Authentication Failed messages.
v9.7.3 - Brand New Voice Chat!
In the last update we ran into crashing issues using Steam’s voice chat, so we temporarily turned off voice chat while we investigated.
After working all weekend and implementing a brand new system, we think we have something even better! Crystal clear voice using the latest Opus codec, the gold standard of voice chat. This new voice chat should sound better and perform better than Steam Voice or our old system.
Currently, Team Voice Chat icons do not show for other players.
Thanks for your patience during this time. Hopefully the new voice chat works well for you all. If you have any feedback, please post on our forums.
Voice Chat Commands
- /mics (will return a list of available mics with a number.)
- /setmic # (to assign your new mic as default.)
- This will be moved into the configuration menu in the future.
Other Additions
- Scripting inputs now support BBCode.
- Fixed movement/jitter with scripting 3d ui.
- Fixed auto save not occurring during a table flip.
- Fixed steam authentication issues when reconnecting to server.
Linux Troubleshooting
If you are having problems talking to others players make sure your GLIBCXX_3.4.20 is on this version. This might change in the future.
v9.7.0 - Voice Chat Revamp & Character Sheets!
We’ve been working on a lot of stuff these past few weeks to finally use Steam networking. We’ve got a great head start by converting our old voice chat over to Steam Voice, so you’ll see a great improvement! We’re still working on the full conversion, so let us know what you think thus far.
So many of you have been asking for the ability to create character sheets since nearly the beginning and it hasn’t been easy to come up with something that was feasible, but now we have! Through scripting – createInput(), you can now create your own custom character sheets.
Voice Chat Revamp
- We are now using Steam Voice Chat and p2p.
- Better quality and less bandwidth used.
- No strain on the host’s bandwidth with true p2p.
- Client players can mute other players. Host will mute/unmute for everyone.
- Volume input/output can be controlled in the Steam voice chat settings as shown above.
- You might hear a few pops here and there, so we’re still working out the kinks.
- Please leave us any feedback you encounter with the new voice chat. Thanks!

And for our VR users, rejoice! Oculus Touch support is now officially here! VR performance in general should also be improved up to 30% faster. Check it out and let us know how it is. Of course, there’s still more to come as well!
