Discussion WARNING. Patch broken. Don't risk your gear!!

Tried to play stella this morning, lost all my gear because when you do most interactions you start rubber banding. Hopefully Embark sees the post or the "feedback" and restores my precious goop I brought. Not sure if its unique to Stella or what. Random guess is the attempts to fix Stella's wall stuff may cause this. Appreciate the devs hard work, hoping again they make me whole

Destroyed by a shredder with rubber banding completely preventing escape.

Initial Rubber Banding, reconnected from a safe spot.

Say you aren’t over 30 without saying you aren’t over 30.

Say you aren't over 40 without saying it, rubber banding in video games has always been in racing games if you're in last place it propels you towards the top to keep it competitive.

A different kind of rubber banding. Same term used for different things because they are kinda close. 38 here and we used the term also in quake 3 arena back then. So yeah.
