Deep Rock Galactic Patch Notes

## What changed - **Lift Pod** — adjusted collision to prevent players getting stuck and added fallback positioning system - **Lift Pod spawn location** — prevented from spawning near player spawn points - **Pit Jaw** — moved relocation logic to level generation to reduce stutters, and added 2-second grace period after relocation where it won't target players - **Resinite mass** — prevented from spawning in drop pod or lift pod paths, and prevented important level elements from spawning in resinite mass paths - **Relic Raider** — fixed first-person arms disappearing when looking up and down ## Bug Fixes - **Lift Pod collision** — no longer traps players - **Pit Jaw stuttering** — eliminated performance hiccups in levels with this enemy by moving relocation logic earlier in level generation - **Resinite mass placement** — blocked from blocking critical paths and objectives - **Relic Raider animation** — arms now remain visible regardless of camera angle ## Overall Lift Pod reliability, Pit Jaw performance, and enemy spawn logic have been fixed to improve level flow and reduce environmental frustration.
