Toontown Release Notes: 2003
April 24, 2003 [sv1.5.10]
- The Catching Game is now released. Have fun!
- We have gotten a few complaints about Toons griefing other players by hopping off Cog elevators at the last second, thus stranding poor Toons left to fight the building alone. Now when a Toon jumps off a Cog elevator, the timer will be reset. It will only be reset the first time this happens on each elevator.
