Raft recently received a hotfix that resolved critical memory crashes. Apart from that, the developers made several small changes, including one for the Creative Mode. This mode should no longer load all the islands, which should decrease the loading times and improve performance.
Memory and Crashes
The developers received reports of the game crashing when loading save files or creating a new world. While the developers aren’t yet sure what the reason is, they suspect it could be because of high RAM usage. So, they reduced the amount of memory required by a huge margin to cut the odds of memory-related crashes.
Bug Fixes
Multiple bugs were resolved by this update. One of them was game-breaking, where some players experienced random building blocks disappearing while playing. The issue remains a mystery since the developers couldn't replicate it. Unable to do that prevents them from discovering the real culprit behind the disappearing blocks. So, if you still experience this issue, please report it to the dev team. As of now, the team believes they fixed the problem.
