- Full-auto modkit now allow the AR to fire individual shots as fast as it should have.
- A case where an empty hotbar slot could be highlighted as if it was equipped has been fixed.
- The Hacker's gender no longer resets to male when loading a game. This is in order to handle 1.1 saves properly due to the field not being serialized. Bug only occurs when swapping between 1.2 female and 1.1 male saves.
- Force update dismembered limb bounds when visible = true.
