1. Apr 22, 2026·Hotfix 1.6.1.1 Notes

   • ≈🔁Reworkloading state on moving platform

     Reverted a previous fix that loaded a state during ledge grabs on moving platforms due to performance concerns.

     Reverted: Fixed a bug with loading a state while a character was grabbing the ledge of a moving platform. This bug fix was causing major performance issues, so we're reverting it for now while we cook up a more performant fix.

   • ≈🐛Bug fixmultihit pummels counted in stats

     Fixes an issue where multihit pummels were inflating the stats and resolves the reported pummel soft lock.

     Bug fix: Multihit pummels (i.e. Olympia normal pummel) will no longer count each hit as a successful pummel in the stats screen. The previously reported pummel soft lock has been fixed!
