Server Update 04rel005/04rel006
Note: See the corresponding client patch notes for some additional changes that may be relevant to you.

• Reduced the amount of bandwidth needed to sync players and vehicles.
• Reduced the amount of lag experienced when some types of packets are lost or received out of order.
• Vehicles should now appear to move more smoothly and warp less frequently.
• Added a SetFallTimer plugin call to affect how long players will be knocked down for when punched, hit by a vehicle, shot at close range by a shotgun, etc. Setting this to zero disables falling down. Default is 500ms.
• Added SetPickupOption and GetPickupOption plugin calls and a vcmpVehicleOptionSingleUse flag to mark vehicles and pickups as single-use; single-use entities delete themselves after being destroyed or submerged in water (for vehicles) or picked up (for pickups).
• Added a GetPlayerModuleList plugin call to get a list of loaded modules (i.e. DLLs) on a player's game without crashing the client. Use the OnPlayerModuleList plugin callback to receive the list and parse it.
• Vehicle lights, including taxi lights, are now synced. Added SetVehicleLightsData(vehicleId, flags) and GetVehicleLightsData(vehicleId) plugin calls to manage them.
• Setting a vehicle's colour to -1 will now result in a random colour being picked, similar to the 0.3 Squirrel server.
• The server will no longer respawn submerged vehicles while they are being occupied or stood on.
• Fixed entities not being able to be assigned to worlds higher than 65,535 - all 2,147,483,647 worlds should be usable now.
• Fixed the OnPickupRespawn callback never being called.
• Fixed an exploit where an attacker could send malformed packets to hang the server.
• Fixed players getting ejected for entering vehicles too slowly when the gamespeed is reduced.
• Miscellaneous performance improvements
