Summary (AI)

Ore Factory Squad ⛏️ patch 0.3 introduces a temporary security fix that restricts invite-only rooms to being joined exclusively via direct Steam invites sent through the in-game pause menu. Lobby codes are temporarily disabled, and invite-only rooms no longer appear in the Server Browser. This change addresses issues with unauthorized users exploiting private lobbies to disrupt games and sell items. The developers have identified those responsible and are working on a more permanent protection system. Players are encouraged to report suspicious behavior and join the Discord community for updates and feedback.

Tip: expand all for quick scanning.

Hi Miners! ⛏️
These users were joining rooms they were not supposed to access, disrupting other players’ games, selling items, and generally griefing sessions.We want to be very clear, we have already identified the hackers involved, and we have the necessary account information. Action will be taken against those responsible for what they’ve done.
For now:
These temporary changes are here to protect players while we finish a stronger long-term solution.
We’re sorry for the trouble this caused to players who were affected. Thank you for your patience while we deal with this properly, and please keep reporting any suspicious behavior or issues you encounter.
