Winter Holiday 2006-2007 Ends
The 2006-2007 Winter Holiday officially ends with Update 49. We hope you enjoyed the winter weather and activities inside the Matrix. The yetis will miss you.
World Events Link Returns
We have re-activated the World Events in-game menu item. It now opens a list of active organization liaison officers.
Listing Commands with Options
/commands now takes an optional substring parameter and only displays matches if it is specified. Note that all commands start with the slash (/) character (and don't have a / anywhere else), so if you want to search (for example) for all commands starting with 'd', just do /commands /d.
If you wanted a list of all commands with the letter "d" in the command anywhere, you would want /commands d.
Final District Rebundle - Downtown
This update includes the last District rebundle to fix the bugs with White Hallway door locations. All Organization doorways should now appear on the in-game map correctly when running the White Hallway missions.
