Star Citizen Alpha Patch 3.24.2

Currently with LTP, certain player states such as personal hangar layout, custom characters, and in-game purchased consumables are not saved between releases which will cause some items to be lost in the next update.
Audience: Evocati Only
Server Info: PTU Channel – US Only
Long Term Persistence: Enabled
Starting aUEC: 15,000,000
Shard Player Count: 100

The current build is under NDA (Talking about features and testing is allowed but no sharing of game video, screenshots, audio, files, or accounts outside of Evocati)
Please log out then back in on the issue council site to see the Evocati environment there. Please make sure to only select the Evocati 3.24.0 environment when creating IC reports while the builds are Evocati only
Please monitor etf-testing-chat in spectrum for updates and testing instructions.
Note: This patch does not contain all of the intended features, which will be added iteratively to the notes as they become available. Additionally, some features may be implemented in a partial state and as such are not ready for testing.  When those features reach a playable state they will be detailed on the notes and added to the “Testing Focus”.  Please issue council all issues related to those in testing focus and in general gameplay.

Testing/Feedback Focus

Known Issues

For this update, set your initial spawn to either Area18 or Lorville as you will most likely run into grey panels blocking access to elevators at other starting locations.
We have a temporary cvar set that will help with ships falling through hangar elevators when lifting them up. This will be a little weird and teleporty but should help until a full fix is in.
