- Fixed issue with the connection to Shootmania servers.
- Imported updated translations
2019-02-07:

Is this a Stadium thing?

Thanks for the update!
Can you go into detail about the mesh modeler & MT fixes, so we can mark these threads as fixed? Cheers.

Yes, the middle road bug is a Stadium-only phenomenon that has occured on a more frequent basis ever since Maniaplanet 4 got launched. For the sake of preserving competitiveness in upcoming tournaments and eliminating random elements as much as possible, the physics are now being looked into and tweaked accordingly.

I heard this update broke ShootMania really bad. I'm not an SM player so I can't give more details. But you might want to check into it.
EDIT: Found this quote in another topic:

To be fair, they probably assumed that their small set of changes wasn't going to affect ShootMania at all, so they probably didn't test it. An honest mistake, but a thing to learn from. I'm sure they'll get this fixed soon.
With that said, yes, they do need to get into the habit of testing all of their games whenever they push an update, considering ManiaPlanet is the engine for currently 5 games, not 1.
