Or it could be read as, "...backend changes necessary for future [...] bug-fixes."

Maybe they're working on nailing down the shuttle AND problem? One can only hope...

If they do fix it, will they tell us? I hope so.

Sorry, Shan, but that's what y'all said last time, and it wasn't true, so I have a lot of trouble believing you now.

Could you remind me of what you feel was not communicated for a previous client where there were no player facing changes?

The v4.0 bug where, when you equipped an item, you had to click the Understood button before being able to select other items. That was bugged as late as 4.0.2 (at least, on both my devices), but fixed when the 4.0.3 update came out.

You Understood Button went away? I still have it every time I equip stuff.....

{CLARIFICATION: It happens every time I have to build something, then Equip it.}

After building & equipping, I can click anywhere on the left side and it auto-goes away.

The 4.0 client was NOT said to have no player facing changes, and in fact the bug you mention was included in the release notes. So that's a terrible example of "no player facing changes" being wrong.

Clarification: the bug occurred in 4.0 (listed in the notes), and was fixed in 4.0.3 (which we were told had no player-facing changes).

The equipping UI bug was fixed in 4.0.2, but I can understand why it would have appeared to have been fixed in 4.0.3.

• 4.0.3 came out very soon after 4.0.2 did, so some players likely went straight from 4.0 to 4.0.3. So from their perspective, it *was* fixed in 4.0.3.
• The equipping UI fix wasn't specifically called out in the 4.0.2 release notes, as there were a lot of UI fixes in 4.0.2 ("Various UI fixes for iPhone X and other devices.")

4.0.3 to this day continues to have no player-facing changes, though if you wanted to be technical, fine, there was a new icon and loading screen. But generally when "player-facing changes" are referred to, they specifically refer to gameplay/game UI changes/technical performance/etc.

Thanks for posting yet again Hosun. It shows that despite no longer being with DB you really cared/care about STT and, of course, overworked Shan!
