For modded players: Hold for 1–2 weeks. The modding scene is fast, but v0.218.15a changes enough internal code to risk save corruption if you force outdated mods. Terrain Modification Memory Leak: Fixed a 12-month-old bug

Patch Highlights:

• Terrain Modification Memory Leak: Fixed a 12-month-old bug where digging a moat or raising ground would slowly consume RAM until the game crashed. This patch introduces a terrain cache limit.
• Dedicated Server Sync: Solved the "Ghost Chest" issue—where items visually remained in chests after being taken on a client’s screen. Now, v0.218.15a forces a UI refresh every 300ms for containers with more than 5 item stacks.
• Xbox Series S Performance: Specifically targets the 4-second freeze that occurred when entering the Plains biome. The patch pre-loads LODs for Deathsquitoes and Fuling villages 20% earlier.

Boiling Waters: The sea surrounding the Ashlands is scalding; you must craft the new Drakkar ship to survive the voyage.
