Community Announcements - Community Manager (Andy B)
A new patch has been released, and it's a big one! Please restart your games and make sure your community servers are updated.

TL;DR (Patch Highlights)
Known Issue: Yellow Lotus Potions sometimes have no effect. This will be fixed as quickly as possible, and in the meantime we recommend not using them.
EXPLOIT FIX: Players can no longer use building previews to move themselves around
This specifically addresses issues with Explosive Jar and Well placement previews
EXPLOIT FIX: Players can no longer use chairs to travel great distances
EXPLOIT FIX: The crouch/jump "boost" should now be fixed
Please get in touch with us if you discover additional instances where jump "boosting" is possible. We understand the impact these issues had on raiding and general basebuilding on PvP servers, and want to make sure this issue is completely eliminated.
EXPLOIT FIX: You can no longer dismantle Explosive Jars that have already exploded
EXPLOIT FIX: Players now respawn immediately upon dying, skipping the death camera
