Official Changelog

GENERAL

• Removed waiting for spectators in private lobbies

COMMUNITY

• Increased low-priority ban rate for players who receive high numbers of reports

USER INTERFACE

• Added many new loading screen tips
• Fixed and adjusted several tooltips and ability descriptions
• Alt-clicking on an item in an enemy hero's inventory now informs your teammates that the enemy has that item
• Alt-clicking on the buyback button or your gold will notify your team of your current buyback status
• Items may now be dropped from the stash while dead
• Fixed replay highlight reel transition graphic getting stuck on sometimes
• Fixed a bug in the Coach UI where the help text sometimes overlapped the student checkboxes, rendering them unusable

ITEMS

• Players can no longer drop or take other players' unsharable items on the courier
• Players can no longer store other players' unsharable items in their stash
• Items on heroes controlled by players who have disconnected, but not yet abandoned, can no longer be dropped from their inventories
• Fixed a case where picking up an item owned by another player triggered an item combine, using items from the owning player's stash. If the item was owned by an enemy player, this would combine and steal the whole item.

WORKSHOP

• Increased the size of the importer preview

• Fixed a bug where sub model pages weren't being flipped back to the first page when opening a model that only needed the first page
• Fixed the attachment list not being initialized properly, which was leading to the default selection being blank
• Fixed a bug where lighting in the preview would darken after the portrait editor was opened
• Updated text to make it clearer that model budgets are in triangles, not polygons

COMPENDIUM TOOLS

• Several new features for Third Party compendiums. Documentation at https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Dota2_Compendium_Scriptfiles
• Fixed test_local_compendium not precaching images the way the download path did, which resulted in subtle differences in some cases.
• Fixed compendium video elements not working if they weren't using the legacy element path.
