### 6th November 2023

* Some anti lag measures:
	+ If server is possibly experiencing lags, server goes in 10s cooldown period & lightnings are auto disabled for some time.
	+ During cooldown, if a grid cell exceeds 150 objects, all petals in it are auto killed and players & mobs are auto teleported around the zone.

## Trivia

* The 23rd January 2024 update is currently the most recent update.
	+ Despite the anti-lag system changing, this anti-lag system was added in the 6th November 2023 update. The 6th November 2023 was controversial because of the lightning damage being nerfed but didn't hurt the player base much.
	+ Speaking of controversy, the 6th October 2023 was one of the most controversial updates in Hornex.pro because of the Salt nerfs, like its effect no longer working on Hyper mobs.
	+ This hurt 94% of the playerbase, with approximately ~5%-25% players quitting the game.
* The 2nd October 2023 was hated by many, because of the Low quality option, which makes the quality bad for users.
