We’re especially proud and excited about the technical milestones we’ve achieved, including bringing Persistent Entity Streaming to Star Citizen, letting players test the Replication Layer Split in our new tech preview channel, and showing a live demo of Server Meshing at this year’s in-person CitizenCon.
