Only two days into the New Year, Valve has already updated the multiplayer fest known as Team Fortress 2. The update fixes a variety of issues, including bugs and crashes. The fulls change list:

• Fixed “CUtlLinkedList overflow!” crash
• Added player position data to server logging of events (player_death, player_builtobject, teamplay_flag_event, object_destroyed, teamplay_point_captured, teamplay_capture_blocked)
• Improved mapcycle handling to ensure it always loads new mapcycles when the mapcyclefile convar is changed
• Fixed sniper quick-switch exploit allowing them to avoid zoom/unzoom times
• Fixed an exploit allowing players to spawn into the enemy territory at the start of a round
• Fixed syringegun projectiles sometimes pushing players high up into the air, allowing them to reach bad map locations
• Removed an obscure rendering setting that would allow players to make cloaked spies appear fully black

The game will be automatically updated when Steam is opened.
