Verified update

Patch notes, translated into action

The latest official multiplayer note affects how long your party leader can stay inactive.

1The official 1.0.10 notes say a multiplayer party can disband if its leader stays unresponsive for an extended time.
2If a lobby vanishes while everyone is waiting, rebuild it and keep the leader active.
3Wide search range remains the first setting to check for an empty queue; existing players may still need to set it manually.

The LevelLime promise

We say what is officially confirmed, what we checked against current sources, and what still needs proof. No 2,000-word detours before the answer.
